Frequently Asked Questions About Sewer Line Repair in Tacoma, Washington

For more information about sewer line repair services near you, read our’Frequently Asked Questions’ below. If you have questions about our plumbing service offerings in Tacoma, Washington, contact our team by phone or through our online form.

  • The average price for replacing a sewer line can generally depend on the materials needed, where in the country you are, and where it’s being installed — such as under a driveway, so contact a trusted sewer line installation team for more information specific to your property. The type of replacement method contributes to sewer line replacement costs, with some service professionals recommending traditional excavation methods and others using trenchless methods like pipe lining and pipe bursting. Some sewer line replacement materials, such as ABS, PVC, and HDPE, cost more than others to buy and install, contributing to the overall installation price tag. Many costs can factor into the average sewer line replacement job, like necessary permits, labor, and expenses related to regulations, site access, and site restoration.

  • How much you pay to repair your sewer line can depend on whether you need minor or significant repairs, but you can typically expect to pay $50 to $300 per foot for equipment and skill. Talk to your local sewer line repair service provider about repair methods since pipe lining, pipe bursting, and traditional excavation may all cost different amounts. Sewer line repair costs can be dramatically different when you have a localized repair need versus significant repairs, so request a job estimate from a service provider. Parts like connectors, couplings, and repair sleeves, as well as pipes consisting of ABS, PVC, or HDPE, can all be added to sewer line repair invoices.

  • Responsibility for sewer line repairs may fall on homeowners and business owners if issues arise in the upper sections that carry sewage from your home or business to the main sewer line. In many cities, you may be responsible for sewer line repairs if there are problems in the lower sections that carry wastewater to the main sanitary line. Sewer line problems relating to the sewer mains that carry wastewater to a public treatment facility may be the responsibility of your city because it’s often classed as public infrastructure. If you’re unsure whether sewer line damage is yours to deal with or falls under your city’s responsibilities, contact your local sewer line professionals for advice.

  • You may receive compensation for sewer line replacement from your insurance company if lightning, fire, windstorms, or hail caused the damage. Most homeowners insurance providers will cover sewer line replacement in several circumstances, such as damage from aircraft and vehicles, vandalism, explosions, and falling objects. While unique situations to be in, homeowners insurance companies tend to pay for sewer line replacement when damaged due to a riot, civil disturbance, or even a volcanic eruption. You may have to cover the costs of sewer line replacement yourself if your homeowners’ insurance company deems that damage was related to poor maintenance or improper installation.

  • Every state is different regarding property alterations and upgrades, which means you may or may not need a permit to replace your sewer line, depending on where you live. In some situations, your building’s exact location can determine whether or not you need to apply for a permit to replace your property’s sewer lines. If you live in a rural area and your property isn’t connected to city services, there’s a chance you may not need a permit to replace your sewer line. If your residential or commercial property is connected to municipal water and sewer, you most likely need a permit to replace your sewer line.

  • Many sewer line materials last for decades, giving you an idea of their lifespan, while the likes of PVC may last for up to a century. Tree roots can ultimately contribute to sewer pipes’ lifespan since they can crack pipes by wrapping around them, affect air and water pressure, and cause damaging blockages. Corrosion can sometimes be a problem with shortening the lifespan of sewer pipes, especially in metal-containing pipes exposed to magnesium and calcium. You may find that your sewer lines’ lifespan can be affected by a broad range of things, including installation and maintenance, temperature extremes, and blockages caused by debris, sludge, and grease.

  • Through licensed and trained service professionals, sewer line replacement can take one to five days. Pipe lining, pipe bursting, and traditional excavation are all sewer line replacement methods that can contribute to the overall time it takes to install your new sewer lines. If you have short sewer lines, you can expect them to take less time to install than if you have long sewer lines because they require fewer human resources and materials. The timeframe you can expect for sewer line replacement may depend on how deep down your sewer lines are, the soil they’re in, and the time it takes to prepare and restore the area.

  • You may be aware of a potential broken or damaged sewer pipe when you start to notice a very unpleasant odor on your property, especially around your pipes. Many property owners contact trusted sewer line replacement businesses when their fixtures are slow-draining, which can point to clogs and cracks in sewer lines. If you have soggy patches in your yard or hear strange sounds coming from around your drains, you may have a broken sewer pipe that requires further investigation. When sewer pipe breaks are severe and left for extended periods, there’s a chance you’ll notice extensive damage, such as cracks around the base or walls of your home’s foundation.

  • Fixing a broken sewer pipe requires the experience and expertise of trained, licensed, and insured service professionals. Traditional excavation has long been a practical and effective sewer pipe repair solution, involving digging a trench to repair or replace a pipe and restoring the surface. Pipe lining, a trenchless repair method, is common for broken sewer pipes under the ground and involves creating a new pipe inside an existing pipe by inserting and inflating a liner. Fixing a damaged sewer line can involve a non-invasive trenchless method called pipe bursting, in which service providers burst an old pipe and install a new one simultaneously.

  • If you’re continually dedicating time to sewer line maintenance and repairs for ongoing problems, contact experts for sewer line replacement. Poorly maintained sewer lines can become costly for property owners, often making it more economical to replace them rather than keep repairing them to keep them functional. If tree roots have damaged your sewer lines, or they have caused blockages or water and air pressure changes, sewer line replacement can be necessary. You may need to explore total sewer line replacement if your sewer lines weren’t laid out or installed as they should have been to function well.
