When you notice the signs of a damaged, broken, or leaking sewer line, Mr. Rooter® Plumbing of Boise can help you get your plumbing system back up and running again. Before you can know that it is time to call a team of service professionals for help, you have to identify the signs of a damaged sewer line.

- Low levels of water in your toilets
- Sewage backups in your bathtubs or toilets
- Clogged drains or drains that take too long to empty
- Flooding or soggy areas of your lawn
- Noticeably greener sections of grass near your lateral sewer line
- The smell of sewage around your property, especially in your basement or yard
Your Options for Repairing Damaged Sewer Lines
When your sewer line needs to be repaired or replaced, there are a few options we offer to homeowners. Not every solution is suitable for every situation, but our team of service professionals will help you understand your options, including the residential sewer line replacement costs. The solutions for a damaged sewer line include the following:
- Preventive Pipe Maintenance – Routine maintenance, like cleanings, scoping, and clog removal, can keep your sewer line in top condition. This is often all you need if your sewer line is experiencing regular blockages and buildups.
- Pipe Bursting – Pipe bursting offers homeowners a trenchless method of completely replacing their existing sewer line with new pipes. We use specialized equipment to break up your existing sewer line. Then, we thread a new sewer line through the spot where the old one was.
