Sewer Line Repair: When Should You Call Our Professional Plumbers?

Maintaining and repairing your sewer line is key to keeping your plumbing system in good shape. Not every issue requires a full sewer line replacement. If damage is localized, targeted repair may be enough to restore function. Our plumbers will assess your system and determine the best solution. Regular maintenance and inspections can also help you avoid unexpected issues in the future.
  • Slow Drains Throughout the House: If more than one drain in your home is moving slowly, this could signal a blockage or break in your main sewer line. Addressing this early with professional repair can prevent serious backups and property damage. Let our experts inspect and repair the issue quickly.
  • Unpleasant Odors Indoors or Outside: Sewer gas smells inside your home or near your yard could mean there’s a crack in the sewer line. These leaks can expose you to harmful bacteria and should be taken seriously. A fast repair from our plumbers helps restore safety and comfort.
  • Unusual Patches of Green Grass: If one area of your lawn is greener and growing faster than the rest, a sewer leak might be feeding the grass. While it may seem harmless, this signals a possible sewer line failure. Call us to assess and repair the damage.
  • Wet Spots or Sinkholes in the Yard: Unexplained damp areas or ground that feels soft may point to a leaking or broken sewer pipe. Left alone, this can lead to erosion and more costly problems. We recommend a full inspection followed by the right repair solution.
  • Backed-Up Toilets or Drains: When toilets or drains back up regularly, it’s a sign of deeper trouble. DIY fixes may only offer short-term relief. Our plumbers use advanced tools to locate and repair the issue at its source.
  • Rodent or Pest Problems: Cracks in your sewer line can attract pests like rats or insects. If you notice an increase in activity, your plumbing may be part of the problem. Prompt sewer line repair can help keep your home pest-free.

Sewer Line Replacement: What to Do Before a Professional Arrives

Sometimes, sewer line damage is too extensive for repairs and a full replacement becomes necessary. Severe corrosion, tree root damage, or collapsed pipes can all require a new line to protect your property. If you’re scheduled for a sewer line replacement, here’s how to prepare:
  • Locate and Clear Access Points: Make sure entry points like cleanouts or basement access areas are visible and free from obstructions. This will allow plumbers to get to the problem area quickly, saving time and avoiding accidental damage to your home.
  • Move Outdoor Furniture and Landscaping: If the affected area is in your yard, remove any outdoor furniture, decorations, or landscaping features near the work zone. This helps avoid damage and gives the plumbers enough space to complete the job.
  • Secure Pets Indoors: Keep pets safely inside or in a separate room during the service. This protects them from equipment and keeps the worksite safer and more efficient for everyone involved.
  • Avoid Using Drains Before the Service: Try not to use water fixtures like sinks, toilets, or tubs the day of your appointment. This keeps the system clear and reduces the chance of sewage backing up before the line is replaced.
  • Discuss the Job and Timeline: Before work starts, speak with your plumber about what to expect. Ask about the estimated time for completion and any follow-up tasks. Knowing the process helps you feel more in control and confident in the service.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials are commonly used for sewer line replacement?
Sewer lines can be made from PVC, ABS, cast iron, or clay. Modern replacements often use high-quality PVC or HDPE because they are durable and resistant to corrosion. Our plumbers can help you choose the right material based on your home’s layout and local codes.
Most sewer line replacements are completed within one to three days, depending on the length and complexity of the job. We work quickly and carefully to minimize disruption and restore your plumbing as soon as possible.
Yes, in many cases. Trenchless methods like pipe bursting or lining reduce the need for digging. They’re ideal for homes with valuable landscaping or limited yard space. Ask our plumbers if trenchless repair is a fit for your situation.
Yes, most cities and counties require permits for sewer line repairs or replacements. Our licensed plumbers handle all necessary permits and inspections to keep the process smooth and compliant with local regulations.
We recommend scheduling a professional sewer inspection and cleaning every 1 to 2 years, especially for older homes or those with tree roots nearby. This helps prevent major problems and extends the life of your sewer system.

While doing some work in our crawl space we noticed a gas odor. Nicor came out, turned our gas off and we started calling around to get someone out immediately. When called Hydro, Josh answered professionally and shared that he was finishing up a job and would be out within a couple hours. The team showed up, shared their reasonable estimate and went to get the items. Within 45 minutes I had a new pipe and no leaks. Highly recommend Hydro and will be sure to call them in the future.

10/10 would recommend!! Had a really great experience with Hydro-Man. They were prompt, professional, and honest. Not only did they fix my issue, but explained everything thoroughly using a camera to show me the details and provided tips on how to prevent further backup as we prepared to fix the structural problem (we have an old house that needs some repairs). They even followed up afterwards to recommend a cap for an open drain we’ve had since moving in. It’s always tough when something unexpected happens with your house and you don’t know who to call/trust, but I can say without a doubt that Hydro-Man is a reliable and trustworthy service!!
