Common Sewer Line Problems

🌳

Tree Root Intrusion

Roots grow into pipes through small cracks or joints seeking water and nutrients. Over time, roots can completely block or collapse the line.

⏳

Pipe Corrosion & Age

Older cast iron and clay pipes deteriorate over time. Dallas homes built before 1980 often have aging sewer lines prone to collapse.

🏚️

Ground Shifting & Settlement

Texas clay soil expands and contracts with moisture changes, causing pipes to crack, separate at joints, or sag creating low spots where waste accumulates.

🧴

Grease & Debris Buildup

Cooking grease, soap scum, hair, and foreign objects accumulate inside pipes, eventually causing complete blockages that can back up into your home.

πŸ“‰

Bellied or Sagging Pipe

When ground shifts or pipe supports fail, sections of sewer line sag creating a "belly" where waste collects and frequent backups occur.

πŸ’”

Collapsed or Broken Pipe

Extreme age, ground pressure, or root damage can cause sections of sewer line to completely collapse, requiring immediate replacement.

Sewer Line FAQ

How much does sewer line repair cost in Dallas?

Sewer repair costs vary based on the problem and method. Basic cleaning/snaking: $150-$500. Camera inspection: $200-$400. Trenchless repair: $3,000-$12,000. Traditional replacement: $4,000-$20,000+. We provide free inspections and detailed quotes before any work begins.

Is trenchless sewer repair worth it?

Absolutely! While trenchless may cost slightly more upfront, you save on landscaping restoration, driveway/patio repair, and project time. Most trenchless jobs complete in 1-2 days vs. weeks for traditional excavation. The new liner lasts 50+ years and is stronger than original pipes.

Who is responsible for sewer line repair?

Homeowners are responsible for the sewer line from their house to the property line. The city/utility maintains the main sewer line in the street. If tree roots from a neighbor's tree damage your line, you're typically still responsible. Check your homeowner's insurance - some policies cover sewer line repairs.

How long does sewer line replacement take?

Trenchless repair: 1-2 days. Traditional excavation and replacement: 3-7 days depending on line length, depth, and obstacles. Emergency repairs may be prioritized for same-day completion. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily life.

Can I prevent sewer line problems?

Yes! Regular maintenance helps: Don't flush wipes, feminine products, or grease. Have your line cleaned every 18-24 months if you have large trees nearby. Consider a video inspection every 3-5 years if your home is 25+ years old. Root barriers can protect lines from nearby trees.

What is a sewer cleanout and why do I need one?

A cleanout is an access point to your sewer line, typically a capped pipe in your yard or basement. It allows plumbers to quickly access your sewer line for cleaning, inspection, or repairs without entering your home. Modern code requires cleanouts - we can install one if your home doesn't have easy access.
