when does a sewer main need to be replaced?
Your sewer main line is the single pipe that connects your home’s entire drain system to the city sewer or septic system. It’s out of sight, buried underground, but when it fails, the results are impossible to ignore. Knowing when replacement is needed can save you thousands of dollars in water damage, health hazards, and emergency cleanups.
Here are the most common warning signs and reasons a sewer main replacement becomes necessary:
- Recurring drain clogs or slow drains on multiple fixtures
- Sewage smells, gurgling, or frequent back-ups at the lowest drain
- Root intrusion, broken or collapsed sections visible on camera
- Channeling, bellies, or off-grade slope causing standing wastewater
- Old materials (e.g., Orangeburg, failing cast iron, clay with offsets)
