How to Tell When It’s Time to Replace Your Sewer Line

Sewer issues often begin subtly and don’t always start with a full blockage. Some of the earliest signs are small but shouldn’t be ignored.

Watch for:

  • Frequent backups affecting multiple drains
  • Slow-draining sinks, tubs, or toilets that never fully clear
  • Unpleasant odors from yard drains or cleanouts
  • Wet, soft, or sunken spots appearing on your lawn
  • Older clay or cast-iron pipes showing visible wear or corrosion

These symptoms often point to root intrusion, corrosion, or a collapsed line; problems that routine cleaning can’t resolve. When you notice any of these warning signs, it’s time to call our team for a thorough inspection.

How Long Does Sewer Line Replacement Take?

Most sewer line replacements are completed within one to two days, depending on the layout of your property and the soil conditions. Trenchless methods typically take less time since there’s minimal digging involved. Our team coordinates each step carefully to reduce downtime and help your plumbing system return to normal as quickly as possible.

Our FAQ

Have questions? We are here to help. Still have questions or can't find the answer you need? Give us a call at 916-741-6799 today!

  • How do I know if I need a full sewer line replacement?
    If you’re dealing with recurring backups, foul smells, slow drains across multiple fixtures, or soggy patches in your yard, your line may be collapsed or severely damaged. A camera inspection will tell us if a new sewer line in Sacramento is the right solution.
  • What’s the difference between trenchless and traditional sewer replacement?
    Trenchless methods allow us to replace the line with minimal digging, preserving your yard and landscaping. Traditional replacement involves open trench excavation. We’ll recommend the best method based on the condition of your pipes and the layout of your property.
  • Is the replacement covered by a warranty?
    Yes. Every sewer line replacement is backed by the Bud’s Legacy Guarantee — our promise of quality, craftsmanship, and customer satisfaction. We stand behind our work because that’s what we’ve done for over 60 years.

What’s the Lifespan of a New Sewer Line?

With high-quality materials and professional installation, a new sewer line can last 50 years or more. Modern PVC and similar materials resist corrosion and root intrusion, offering excellent durability.
