Sewer Repair & Replacement

Sewer issues come up quite often due to the age of many homes in the area. There are many great reasons to call our sewer line experts here at The Plumbing Joint. Our Renton sewer repair professionals will help you through the entire sewer repair or sewer replacement process.

You will usually notice a drain clog, sewer backup, or some sort of drain cleaning issue first. As part of the drain clearing process, our plumbing technicians must look at the sewer line with our sewer camera video equipment in order to diagnose any cracks, breaks, or intrusions that will require sewer repair. Our staff of plumbers are highly trained to handle any issues with your sewer and can provide you with some options on how to handle excavation and whether a smaller sewer repair or larger sewer replacement is the best solution for your unique situation. Our professional plumbers are friendly and trustworthy and provide top-quality service to ensure that your sewer is completely repaired and functioning properly.

Common Causes of Sewer Damage

Sewer damage is a plumbing issue that can be caused by a few different things:

• Old infrastructure: Any houses built before 1980 will have inferior, outdated materials in their sewer lines. Concrete and ceramic are two examples. These lines can deteriorate over time and create cracks or breaks where groundwater, dirt, and other materials are let in, causing sewage to leak out. These leaks can damage your lawn and expose you to unpleasant smells.
• Old materials: With older materials, the ground’s natural settling and shifting can cause breakages and cracks in the line—sometimes even crush a line until it’s partially or completely closed off.
• Natural causes: Tree roots can grow into or through the side sewer line. This causes cracks and leaks that need to be fixed. Older sewer materials are more susceptible, but it can happen to any line. This is why drain cleaning companies also use the name, “Rooter,” since they will often grind up the roots in the line.

Our Renton plumbing and sewer specialists will be able to help you choose whether a sewer line repair or complete replacement is best. From start to finish, you will benefit from our expertise.
