Reliable Sewer Line Services In the Inland Empire
When it comes to plumbing, many people don’t think of sewers as being one of the areas that need attention. However, sewers play a very big part in your plumbing system, and having a cracked or clogged sewer line can severely disrupt sewage flow. Clogs in sewer lines happen quite frequently and have a variety of different causes. Sanitary products, grease, hair and food waste can all get stuck in the lines and cause problems. Lines can also become cracked and can be broken by tree roots growing through them. When this happens, you can count on the professional plumbers at Scott McLeod Plumbing for expert sewer line repairs.
Sewer Line Repair FAQs
Signs that your sewer line needs repair include frequent drain clogs or slow drainage, unpleasant odors around your home or yard, wet or soggy patches in your yard, unusually green grass, and gurgling noises from toilets or drains. You may also notice sewage backups in your toilets or sinks. If multiple fixtures are affected simultaneously, it's a strong indicator of a sewer line issue. Address these signs promptly to prevent further damage and costly repairs.
The cost of sewer line repair varies widely depending on the extent of the damage, the repair method used, and your location. On average, traditional trench repair can cost between $3,000 and $7,000, but severe cases may exceed $10,000. Trenchless repair methods, like pipe bursting or pipe lining, are less invasive and generally range from $4,000 to $15,000. Factors influencing the cost include the length and depth of the sewer line, the need for permits, and any additional landscaping or structural repairs required. For an accurate estimate, it's best to get multiple quotes from professional plumbers in your area.
Sewer Line Repairs
In the past, there was only one way to repair sewer line problems, and it involved digging up a significant portion of your yard to get to the pipes. This was an incredibly expensive, disruptive and time-consuming process. However, we offer trenchless pipe lining and trenchless pipe bursting, neither of which require your yard to be dug up.
Trenchless sewer repairs are a lot more convenient for you, along with being less expensive and time-consuming. With trenchless pipe lining, the new lining is inserted into the old pipe and compressed air is pumped through to press the old and new pipes together. Afterward, steam or hot water is used to weld them together. With trenchless pipe bursting, a larger pipe is pulled through the existing smaller pipe. The smaller pipe bursts and the new pipe sits where the old pipe used to.
