Sewer Line Replacement & Sewer Line Repair Jacksonville

Jacksonville plumbers recommend regular sewer line maintenance to help prevent issues such as clogs, cracks, and burst pipes. Our service professionals carefully inspect your entire system and complete all the necessary cleaning to rid your sewer line of all current obstructive materials, warding off the need for sewer line repair in Jacksonville.

You can also employ some at-home methods to ward off repairs, such as:

• Proper waste disposal: Ensure you dispose of all inorganic materials and never flush items like paper towels, excess toilet paper, and sanitary or feminine hygiene products down the toilet.
• DIY drain cleaning: We recommend pouring boiling water down your drain once a month to help dissolve any grease that may have accumulated. Following this, pour a vinegar and baking soda solution down to help clear the clogs.
• Install drain strainers: Drain strainers are a cheap and effective method for catching food scraps, hair and preventing soap scum from making its way down your drains. Remember to clean them out regularly so they can effectively do their jobs.
• Monitor drains: Check your drains regularly for gurgling sounds, foul odors, slow drainage, and standing water. These will indicate that your drains could be at risk of repairs or replacement if not handled promptly.
• Maintain and clear tree roots: Avoid planting trees near sewer lines, as their roots can break through pipes in search of water. You can also install root barriers for mature trees that are already firmly in place.
• Run water through drains: For those drains that are infrequently used, such as in utility rooms, we suggest running water weekly. This will fill traps and prevent any buildup from occurring.
• Inspect for leaks: Regularly check your plumbing fixtures for signs of leaks. Additionally, listen for leaks behind walls, as well, or book leak detection services from a qualified plumber.

Our Jacksonville plumbers have shared several of the most common elements below that can damage your sewer line to help you understand your risk:

• Insufficient maintenance
• Tree roots infiltrating your sewer line’s joints and cracks
• Incorrect sewer line installation, layout, or design
• Your city’s main sewer line is backing up
• Various waste materials like sludge, grease, toilet paper, hair, and debris from clogs
• Age-related wear and tear
• Ground hardening due to sudden freezes (very uncommon in Florida)
• Shifting soil, earthquakes, and nearby construction activity

Any of these factors can contribute to the need for extensive replacements and sewer line repair. Jacksonville residents are well advised to call in professional help whenever any of these issues present themselves in their homes.

When your home sewage line sustains damage, your home’s entire plumbing system can suffer from it. For this reason, it is vital to identify sewer line issues as soon as possible and get us in for sewer line repair in Jacksonville. Our plumbers can typically repair minor problems without extensive measures, but if you neglect to address a sewer line issue, it can grow into a significant problem that requires our service professionals to perform a residential sewer line replacement.

Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Jacksonville aims to keep residential sewer line replacement costs competitive and reasonable. However, a sewer line replacement in Jacksonville will always be more expensive than the repairs we perform when your sewer line shows its first signs of damage. Overall, you can end up spending much less money by understanding and watching for the early warning signs of a damaged sewer line. Some signs indicating your sewer line might be damaged and isn’t working properly include the following:

• Less water in your toilet bowls or tanks than they normally have
• Sewage flowing back through your drains
• Slow-flowing bathtub, shower, or sink drains
• Flooding on your property, even when the weather is dry
• Patches of significantly greener grass close to your sewage line (between your house and the closest public sewer main line)
• A sewage smell near your drains or in your yard, especially in your basement
