HOW WE SERVICE

Types of Sewer Line Installation and Replacement

Traditional Sewer Line Replacement

Traditional sewer line replacement works by digging a large trench around your property in order to replace the entire sewer line piping. Traditional methods are very expensive, timely, and intrusive to your St. Louis, MO home and lawn. Traditional Sewer Line Replacement is a long process, sometimes up to two weeks to complete and it requires a lot of clean-up afterwards as well. You will likely need to have your yard completely re-landscaped as well as reconstructing your driveways and sidewalks in some cases. With all of that being said, when choosing to utilize Traditional Sewer Line Replacement methods, once the job is complete, you will have a brand new sewer pipe that should last you for literal decades to come.

Trenchless Sewer Line Replacement

Many St. Louis, MO homeowners prefer Trenchless Sewer Line Replacement methods to Traditional Sewer Line Replacement as it is significantly less intrusive, expensive, and time consuming. Hence the name, “Trenchless,” Academy Air experts use a method referred to as “Pipe Bursting,” to replace your sewer line. Pipe bursting essentially creates a new pipe within your old pipe. Trenchless Sewer Line Replacement can typically be completed in one to three days depending on the circumstances and will not require any additional landscaping and construction afterwards as it requires creating zero trenches. Lastly, Trenchless Sewer Line Replacement is not loud and intrusive like traditional methods, so you can go about your day as you normally would, while the sewer line replacement is being completed.

COST OF SERVICE

How Much Does It Cost to Have Academy Air Install or Replace My St. Louis, MO Sewer Line?

The cost of professional sewer line installation will vary depending on many factors. If you are in need of a sewer line replacement, it is strongly encouraged to call our experts to walk you through the process and provide you with a more accurate cost estimate. With that being said, some major aspects that factor into the cost of installing or replacing your sewer line are:

Local Permits

When a municipal sewer line permit is required to install a new sewer line for your home, this can add to the total cost of replacement. Your team of trusted experts at Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric will help to facilitate any permits required to make the experience less stressful and confusing for you.

Replacement Method

Whether you decide to utilize trenchless or traditional sewer line installation will have a major impact on the total cost of the replacement.

Accessibility

How easily accessible or difficult to access your sewer line is will affect the overall cost of the job.

Sewer System Length

The further your home is from the St. Louis, MO city’s core sewer system can raise the total cost of replacement as extra materials and labor will be required to complete the job properly.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Sewer Line Installation

When Should I Start Thinking About Sewer Line Replacement?

You should start thinking about sewer line replacement if you notice a significant increase in clogs and slow drains in your home. Sewer lines are designed to last a minimum of 75 years, although their lifespan can be significantly reduced if installed incorrectly, infiltrated by tree roots, buried in poor soil conditions, or if too much debris piles up. If your drains are clogged and draining slowly, call Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric to have a professional plumber take a look at your sewer line.

What Are The Signs That I May Need A Sewer Line Replacement?

Signs that you may need a sewer line replacement are your drains getting clogged and draining significantly slower than normal. If you only have a single sink that is clogging, or only your bathtub is draining slowly, it’s more than likely that you just need to have your drains cleared. But, if you have several drains displaying these symptoms, it may be time for a replacement. In either case, call Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric to have an expert plumber take a look at your sewer line.

Can I Delay My Sewer Pipe Replacement By Cleaning Out The Pipe Myself?

It is never a good idea to try and clean out your sewer line pipe yourself. In fact, attempting to clean out your sewer line yourself with a snake or auger can actually make the problem even worse. Using drain cleaner on pipes that are already in disrepair will only dissolve away your pipes even more. Generally, if you are experiencing frequent clogging and slow draining, the problem is much bigger than an auger or drain snake could ever fix anyway. Have a certified plumber from Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric come take a look at your sewer line to better direct you on repairs or replacements.

How Much Does A Sewer Line Replacement Typically Cost?

The cost of replacing a sewer line depends on several factors including materials, complexity of the replacement, and labor. If you think you might need your sewer line replaced, call Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric to have a plumbing expert come out to your home to take a look at your sewer line.

Is There A Definitive Way To Determine If My Sewer Pipe Needs To Be Replaced?

A camera inspection performed by a professional plumber can determine if you need a sewer line replacement. Camera inspections involve threading a digital camera through your sewer line in order to view and record the inside of the pipe. These cameras are capable of detecting cracks, holes, collapsed pipe sections, and root infiltrations. If the plumber notices any of these common problems, they will recommend a sewer pipe cleanout or a pipe replacement, depending upon the severity. Call (314) 770-9800 to take a look at your sewer pipe now.

What Is A Trenchless Pipe Replacement?

Trenchless pipe replacement involves installing a new sewer line pipe in the same tunnel or, lining the original piping with epoxy seal. The benefit to trenchless pipe replacement is that it is much less disruptive towards your yard and your neighbors (compared to traditional pipe replacement). Trenchless pipe replacement requires very minimal digging and excavation and because of this, you will also save money. To learn more, call (314) 770-9800 today!
