Sewer Line Repair + Replacement

Our sewer lines are essential to not only our modern standards of living but our health as well. In the past, the improper management of sewage and wastewater led to consequences so significant that they found their place in the history books. Throughout the mid-1800s, the sewage problem in London was so intense that it led to that era of time being dubbed “The Great Stink.”

Sewer systems have come a long way and thankfully, most developed areas have access to plumbing infrastructure sufficient enough to properly treat wastewater and sewage. Thanks to modern technology and professionals like the ones here at Roadrunner Plumbing & Air, we get to avoid situations like the great stink of the past.

Unfortunately, nothing is fault-proof, and plumbing hasn’t developed to the point of perfection. Things will go wrong and components will break – including the sewer lines that provide a pathway for wastewater to exit your home. When this happens and you find yourself looking for the best sewer services around, Roadrunner Plumbing & Air is here to handle the problem swiftly.

Most Common Sewer Line Repairs

Sewer lines are some of the most long-lasting components of your plumbing system. That’s why the bulk of the work our team provides is repair work. To give our clients an idea of what they might be facing when sewer line issues occur, here are the most common repairs our team provides.

Sewer Line Clogs

Clogs in a sewer line can be caused by any number of issues and fortunately, most are fixed using the same techniques. If a clog is causing your drains to empty slowly or fail to empty at all, reach out to our team. We’re trained in the latest declogging techniques and have access to all the right equipment to get your pipes flowing.

Whether your situation can be fixed with a simple plunger or you need the comprehensive pipe cleaning that comes with one of our hydrojetting services, we guarantee our team is ready to provide you with whatever de-clog solution you could possibly need.

Sagging Pipes

Your pipes need a solid foundation to rest on in order to remain stable and in one place throughout the years. Bellied or sagging pipes happen when ground conditions allow portions of your pipes to sag, changing the overall flow of the system. These lowered areas of pipes can become prone to accumulation which can cause backups and clogs.

Cracks, Fractures & Similar Damage

Your sewer pipes run from your home and across your property, exposed to nature and the changing seasonal temperatures. While sewer pipes are robust and built to withstand these conditions, nothing is perfect and breaks will happen eventually.

Thankfully, when something goes wrong and you find yourself dealing with a cracked pipe, our team has access to a variety of solutions to either repair or replace that segment of pipe to have your plumbing functioning as it’s intended.

Tree Root Problems

Mother Nature is a mighty force — and one example of her might comes in the form of tree roots. While these complex, fibrous systems are incredibly efficient at keeping our beautiful trees alive, they are also incredibly efficient at disrupting piping and causing serious headaches when it comes to plumbing.

If you find yourself dealing with the unfortunate consequences of tree roots being so tenacious, our team has the skills to repair your root-damaged pipes while preserving the health of the tree as much as possible.

Sewer Line Replacement

When repairs just aren’t enough and you need a clean slate with your sewer line situation, the team here at Roadrunner Plumbing & Air is here for you. We’re confident we can carry out the highest quality sewer line replacement possible.

Depending on the materials used and the quality of maintenance over a lifetime, a sewer line can last between 50-100 years — and we’re confident that any installation made by us will be more than equipped to withstand the test of time.
