What to Expect When You Get a Sewer Service Estimate?

All of the drains in your home lead to the main sewer line, which runs from your home and connects to a city sewer line or a septic tank. Over time, your sewer line can develop clogs from a build-up of debris or from tree roots that have penetrated the walls of the pipe. 

If you suspect your line is clogged, you should contact a plumber right away. Typically, the plumber will visit your home and inspect the line using a video camera. After the inspection, the plumber will do the following: 

• Explain what they’ve found. You need to have a clear understanding as to what’s going on so you can make an informed decision. They’ll also answer any questions you have about their assessment of the problem. 

• Present options for sewer line repair or replacement. Depending on the scope of the problem, there may be more than one viable solution. 
• Provide you with a clear and accurate pricing for each option. Your pricing estimate should be accurate, firm, and all inclusive.  
• Gather all the information necessary to provide the sewer line service. This will allow the service provider to carefully plan and execute the replacement or repair of your sewer lines. 

This process could take as long as one to three hours, and you’ll be wise to ask questions for clarification of any items you may be unsure about. The duration of the consultation will depend on the extent of the problem, sewer line location, and accessibility. 

Some questions for you to ask will include: 

• Are you licensed and will you handle the permitting? 
• Will the on site plumber be licensed and insured? 
• Do you subcontractors of perform the work yourselves? 
• How many sewer line replacements do you handle in a year? 
• Do you offer a warranty?
