Our Step-By-Step Process For A New Sewer Line
Homeowners often want to know what this process actually involves before committing to it, and that is a completely fair question. A successful sewer line installation involves much more than just digging a hole and dropping in a pipe. Acme Plumbing Co. follows a refined process designed to support the structural integrity of your new system and the long-term health of your landscaping.
Our team follows these essential steps during every replacement:
- Comprehensive camera inspection – We begin by mapping out the exact location and depth of your existing line to identify the best path for the new installation.
- Strategic site preparation – Our professionals carefully mark utility lines and prepare the area to protect your yard and outdoor features as much as possible.
- Removal of the failing pipe – We carefully excavate and remove the old, damaged sections of the line, whether they are made of clay, cast iron, or outdated Orangeburg pipe.
- Trench preparation and grading – Proper slope is vital for a gravity-fed sewer system, so we meticulously grade the trench to support consistent wastewater flow.
- Installation of high-grade materials – We lay new, durable piping that is resistant to tree root intrusion and the shifting of the local soil.
- Connection and pressure testing – Every joint is secured and tested to verify a leak-free system before we begin the backfilling process.
- Backfilling and surface restoration – Once the new line is approved, we replace the soil and stabilize the ground to prepare your yard for future landscaping.
We do not consider the job complete until the system has been tested, the site has been cleaned up, and you are fully satisfied with the outcome.
