Full Sewer Line Replacement in Baytown
A spot repair fixes one bad section. When the camera shows cracks, roots and sags from end to end, the whole line has reached the end of its life.
Replacement means new pipe from the house to the connection at the street or alley. It is a bigger job, and it is done once.

What a Sewer Line Replacement Involves
Camera and Locate
We run the camera through the line and mark its path and depth on the ground.
Excavate
We dig a trench along the line. Sections under a slab are reached by tunneling or opening the floor.
New Pipe on Proper Slope
New sewer pipe is laid at the fall it needs to drain, with cleanouts for future access.
Test and Backfill
We run water through the new line, check it with the camera and fill the trench.
Why We Replace by Excavation
Digging lets us see the whole line and set the new pipe at the right slope. A sag in the old line is corrected, not copied.
It also lets us add cleanouts where they should be. That makes any future clog easier to reach.

Sewer Line Replacement Questions
A camera inspection shows it. Damage in one spot is a repair. Damage along the whole line calls for replacement.
By excavation. We dig along the line, remove the old pipe and lay new pipe at the correct slope.
We reach that section by tunneling under the slab or by opening the floor above it.
The property owner is usually responsible for the line from the house to the city connection. Check with the city to confirm where your part ends.
