Sewer Line Replacement & Sewer Line Repair Etobicoke

The nice thing about sewer lines is that, compared to other components of your home and plumbing system, they have a relatively long lifespan. PVC can last about 100 years, while cast iron pipes and clay pipes will last somewhere between 50 and 100 years. Of course, these time frames can change due to maintenance and care. If you're reaching the 50-year mark, however, it's never a bad idea to get us in to take a look for possible sewer line repair in Etobicoke.

Common causes of a sewer line break include tree root intrusion (which accounts for 50% of sewer blockages in the GTA), ground movement or soil shifting, municipal infrastructure issues, aging pipes, and blockages from debris or grease buildup. Avoid planting trees near sewer lines and schedule regular inspections to prevent root damage and catch other common sewer line issues before they become too severe.

Our licensed plumbers will gladly handle permits on behalf of homeowners and ensure your repair or replacement takes place entirely according to code and local regulations.

New sewer lines commonly use durable materials like PVC or HDPE due to their longevity, corrosion resistance, and compliance with Ontario plumbing standards. Older lines that may consist of clay, cast iron, or concrete will need to be replaced with these materials. When replacing your sewer lines, feel free to ask your plumber about material options and warranties provided.

The cost of sewer line services varies based on the method, pipe condition, and severity of damage. To find out more about the prices you can expect from us, request detailed, flat-rate quotes including possible extra charges for clean-up or restoration before authorizing work.

Trenchless repair is generally preferred for minimal disruption, quicker completion, and cost-effectiveness for most residential lines unless accessibility or severe collapse make excavation necessary. Trenchless methods reduce surface disruption by up to 75% and total project time by 30-50% compared to excavation, according to the Ontario Sewer & Watermain Contractors Association. Ask our plumbers if trenchless techniques are feasible for your property’s age and pipe location.

Complications for sewer line replacement can arise from deep or difficult-to-access sewer lines, proximity to large trees or utilities, frozen ground, tight property layouts, or municipal infrastructure connections. If you live in a home in an older neighbourhood, you may have clay or cast-iron pipes that require special handling and may encounter root intrusion issues. To access underlying issues, request a camera inspection from our reputable plumbers.

To confirm our credentials, you can check contractor licensing with the Ontario College of Trades and verify local experience through municipal reviews and homeowner testimonials. Our licensed plumbers ensure code compliance and legal protection for homeowners per the Ontario College of Trades for all the work we perform. Additionally, you can contact the City of Toronto or use online trade directories to confirm licensing.

When you enlist our services for sewer line repair or replacement, our plumber will begin by conducting a camera inspection. This involves feeding a waterproof camera through the line to visually locate blockages, cracks, or root intrusion, allowing for a precise and less invasive diagnosis. These inspections are crucial as they reduce unnecessary digging and improve repair outcomes by up to 70%. To understand the exact condition of your pipes and needed repairs, request video footage and a written report from our plumbers.
