Signs You Need to Replace Your Sewer Line
Sewer problems rarely announce themselves clearly, but there are warning signs worth paying attention to. If you notice any of the following, it may be time to call a professional.
- Multiple drains in your home are slow or backing up simultaneously.
- You’re dealing with recurring clogs that keep coming back, no matter how many times you clear them.
- There’s a persistent sewage smell inside or outside your home.
- You notice unusually soggy or sunken patches in your yard, especially above where the sewer line runs.
- Your toilets are gurgling or bubbling when you run water elsewhere in the house.
- Your home is older and has never had a sewer inspection.
Importance of Not Delaying Sewer Line Replacement
In Matthews, the combination of clay-heavy soil, seasonal moisture swings, and warm summers creates conditions that accelerate sewer line wear. Tree roots grow aggressively here, and shifting soil puts pressure on pipes year-round. Waiting too long to address a failing sewer line can turn a manageable repair into a much larger problem. Sewage backups cause property damage, create health hazards, and affect your home’s value. The sooner a problem is diagnosed and corrected, the better the outcome for your home and your wallet.
Our Sewer Line Replacement Methods
We offer several trenchless solutions depending on the condition and location of your pipe.
CIPP Pull and Place Lining and Point Repair: Cured-in-place pipe lining involves inserting a flexible liner into the existing pipe and curing it in place to create a smooth, durable new surface inside the old one. Point repair targets a specific damaged section rather than the full line, making it a cost-effective option when the problem is isolated. Both methods require little to no excavation.
Epoxy Brush Coating: For pipes with minor deterioration, corrosion, or pinhole leaks, epoxy brush coating applies a protective epoxy layer to the interior of the pipe. This seals leaks, prevents further corrosion, and extends the line’s life without replacement.
Descaling: Before lining or coating can be applied, the pipe must be cleaned of scale buildup, rust, and debris. Our descaling process removes those obstructions so the new lining or coating bonds properly and performs the way it should.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is trenchless repair an option for my home?
Most homes qualify for trenchless methods, but it depends on the pipe material, condition, and access points. We assess all of that before recommending a solution.
Will trenchless repair last as long as traditional pipe replacement?
Yes. CIPP lining and epoxy coatings are designed to last decades and often outperform aging original pipe.
How long does trenchless sewer line repair take?
Most projects are completed in one day, though more complex repairs may take longer.
Does trenchless repair work on older pipes?
In most cases, yes. Older clay or cast iron pipes are common candidates for lining and coating.
