Sewer Line Replacement FAQs

How long do sewer lines last?

Most sewer pipe materials are designed and tested to last from 40 to 75 years underground, but that lifespan can be shortened by defective materials, improper installations, poor soil conditions, nearby trees, or a variety of other factors. Materials like clay are vulnerable to crushing and cracks, while cast iron can easily corrode and certain plastics have proven to be defective and may fail early. If you suspect you have sewer line damage in your Charleston home, call our team at Preferred Home Services to schedule a video camera pipe inspection.

What causes sewer lines to fail?

Old, damaged, or poor-quality pipe materials can lead to sewer pipe failures, as can improper installation or backfilling. Soils can shift or erode, causing damage as the pipes move underground or heavy loads are applied from above. Finally, tree roots can grow into any cracks or loose joints of the sewer lines, causing clogs or breaking the pipes apart as the roots search for water and nutrients.

What are the best sewer replacement options?

Your available sewer repair and replacement options will vary based on the extent of the sewer line damage, the location, and local codes. The most direct method of repair is to dig up the sewer line and replace it, but the extensive excavation required will take a long time and will create quite a mess in your yard. In some cases, trenchless repair methods may possible, such as installing a durable epoxy pipe liner in the existing pipe, or bursting the pipe and installing a new one in its place, both of which require minimal excavation.

How much does sewer pipe replacement cost?

The costs can range from a few thousand dollars to over ten, depending on the extent of the damage, the repair method, soil conditions, and the labor involved. Trenchless pipe lining may be a bit less expensive than traditional sewer replacement, while pipe bursting is often a bit more costly, though it leaves less of a mess than a complete excavation. Our experts at Preferred Home Services can discuss your sewer line replacement options and recommend the best choice for your needs and budget.
