While the idea of replacing a sewer line isn’t a pleasant one, pipes wear out. Here are the most common signs that your sewer line needs major repairs or replacement.
If you experience frequent clogs in the sewer system, it could indicate a significant blockage or damage in the pipe.
A healthy sewer line should be relatively airtight, save for the vent stacks allowing gasses to exit. If you smell foul odors from the drains in the house, it could mean that you have an issue with the main sewer line.
When a sewer line leaks, the water flows up, causing puddles in the yard or overly lush vegetation.
While a single slow drain typically indicates a localized clog, multiple slow drains throughout the house suggest a blockage in the main sewer line.

What is Trenchless Pipe Relining?
When you need sewer line repair, consider trenchless pipe relining if applicable in your situation. Trenchless pipe relining allows plumbers to replace underground sewer lines without excavation, only requiring two small access holes. Here’s how pipe relining works.
A flexible resin-coated tube is inserted into the damaged pipe. Once in, it’s inflated; it presses against the pipe’s interior walls. The resin then hardens, creating a new pipe within the old one.
