Troubleshooting Sewer Line Replacements
How to Know If It Needs Replaced
While modern technology and improved design have reduced the need for water and sewer line replacements in recent years, the towns of Littleton and Denver installed many of their water and sewer lines decades ago. As age is the primary culprit in creating problems in home water lines, you should be aware of what signs there may be.
If you suspect you may need a repair or replacement, knowing what to look for is the key to making the right decision. So, how do you know if you need a sewer replacement?
First, it’s important to know that, although often used interchangeably, water lines and sewer lines are different. A water line refers to the piping that brings you the fresh water you use to brush your teeth or shower, whereas a sewer line carries the waste that is removed from your home.
You may need a main waterline replacement if your water drains abnormally slowly or you hear your toilet making gurgling noises. Gurgling noises are often the result of water line blockages.
You may need a sewer line replacement if you notice a particularly bad stench near and around where your sewer pipes are.
If you believe your water line or sewage line needs repair, there are often a wide variety of water main replacement methods, though the best option depends on your specific situation. Our team at Simply Sewers is happy to answer any questions you might have, and assist with any water line or sewer repairs.
Why Might Main Water/Sewer Lines Need To Be Replaced?
it comes to issues involving your water or sewer line, there are often a handful of main culprits that could be causing them.
Worn Down Pipes
One of the most common reasons your water or sewer line might have problems is simply the result of age. If you live in an older area of town, you’ll likely run into some pipe issues down the line.
Old pipe and lines often need to be replaced instead of repaired.
Clogged Lines And Pipes
If you notice your sink or toilet piping is becoming clogged or slow to drain, it could be the result of a blockage in the line. Not putting anything excessively large down the drain can help prevent this from happening.
Tree Roots
Believe it or not, the roots of nearby trees can sometimes interfere with underground piping, particularly sewer lines. As tree roots expand many feet underground, they can interrupt or dislodge your water or sewer lines.
Average Cost Of A Sewer Line Replacement In Denver
While sewer line replacements thankfully aren’t common, they can be a fairly sizable investment if not taken care of quickly and correctly. The average sewer line replacement in the local Denver area ranges anywhere from $5,000 to $10,000 and, depending on the severity, could be even more.
Sometimes a sewer line does not absolutely need to be replaced; many times, repairing the sewer line instead of replacing it, can work just as well.

Sewer Replacement Frequently Asked Questions
When should I replace my sewer lines?
Replacing sewer lines should only be done if it’s absolutely necessary because it can be expensive. To keep your sewer lines in good shape, clean them every 18 months. If you’re still experiencing sewer backups or other problems, its best to contact a professional plumber.
What is the average lifetime of sewer lines?
You shouldn’t have to replace sewer lines often. In fact, the average life span of home sewer lines is 50-70 years. But if you recently moved into an older home, you may have deteriorating sewer pipes. Sewer lines need to be replaced when the pipes begin to corrode. This is a sign a leak may spring.
Will My Homeowner’s Insurance cover my sewer repairs?
In most cases, no. The homeowner will have to pay for sewer line and replacement and repair out of pocket. Homeowner’s insurance rarely covers sewer repairs unless they were damaged by another person.
How much does sewer line replacement cost?
Replacing sewer lines is not easy, it requires digging deep into the ground to locate the sewer line, this can hours or even days. The cost is determined by how much of your sewer line you’re replacing. The average cost per foot can range from $50 to $450 per foot totaling $3,000 to up to $6,000. If you need to replace the whole sewage system you can expect to pay $25,000-30,000 in repair costs.
Who can repair my sewer lines?
You’ll want to hire a professional plumber to fix your sewer lines.
What are some symptoms of sewer damage?
You’ll know its time to take a look at your sewer lines when you smell a foul odor around your house. Other symptoms include slow-draining sinks or bathtubs, frequent sewage backups, water leaks around your home, an increase in your water bill, or mold. If you’re unsure if your sewer lines are in good shape, it’s best to call in the professionals. Marv’s Plumbing & Heating can grapple any plumbing or sewing problem you’re experiencing while offering exceptional service and affordable sewer repair prices.
What does the term “trenchless” mean?
While some repair companies insist on digging up your yard in order to reach your sewer line, we offer a smarter solution. Trenchless repair is a modern method of sewer line repair that is efficient, affordable and keeps your property looking nice. Our team of professional plumbers can inspect and fix your pipelines without excavation. We use a small working area to repair your sewer lines which will save you time and money.
How is residential and commercial sewer repair different?
Residential sewer lines are usually easier to fix than commercial sewer systems. This is because homes have smaller pipes than most commercial properties. Sometimes accessing the pipes can be a challenge on its own though. This is a common problem at homes with small lots, landscaping, or have patios covering the sewer line. Marv’s Plumbing & Heating knows that each sewer repair is different, that’s why we have the skills to diagnose the problem and get the job done right.
Am I able to repair my sewer lines myself?
It may be tempting to purchase drain clear or a snake to clean out your sewer line. However, it’s important to remember that these materials should only be used to clean out your sewer pipes, not repair them. If your sewer system is already damaged, dumping drain cleaner down your sinks and tubs will only worsen the problem because the caustic chemicals will sit in your clogged pipe and erode them. A snake is used for small fixes like a clogged drain, but it will not be long enough to reach the clog in your sewer line. Don’t make the problem any worse than it has to be, get in touch with a professional to repair your sewer line instead of putting a bandaid on the problem.
Who has the responsibility of repairing sewer lines?
Once upon a time, homeowners used to be responsible for repairing sewer lines that were connected to the public network. Today most sewer systems in town are maintained and repaired by local water companies and are paid for by local government funds. Unfortunately, homeowners are still responsible for their individual sewer lines.
Is the city responsible for sewer backup?
Homeowners are responsible for repairing sewer lines if their home is experiencing a backup.

Absolutely! We use modern repair technology to efficiently repair your sewer lines that doesn’t involve excavation. Your yard will be left the way it was found and your sewer line will be properly restored without costing your several thousand dollars.
How do I find my sewer line?
Sewer lines are usually located under front yards, patios, or driveways. We can find exactly where your sewer line runs by using video inspection.
What is a good sewer bid?
Choosing the right plumbing company can be confusing and stressful. When picking a company to repair your pipes, you should look at their reputation, pricing, warranty options, customer service, and more. Take time to compare each company before making a decision.
