How to Detect Sewer Issues Early

It is always in your best interest to address potential sewer line issues sooner rather than later. Catching problems early allows us to provide faster, less intrusive, and typically more affordable repairs. Ignoring early warning signs can lead to catastrophic backups, extensive property damage, and much costlier emergency replacements down the road.

We encourage you to schedule a complimentary sewer line inspection if you notice any of the following signs of trouble:

• Slow drains and multiple clogs. If sinks, tubs, or toilets drain slowly, or if you frequently deal with clogs in more than one fixture, the problem often lies in the main sewer line rather than just a simple fixture blockage. The obstruction in the main line prevents wastewater from flowing out of your home or business efficiently.
• Foul odors. The persistent smell of sewage inside your home or business, particularly near drains or in the basement, indicates a break or blockage in the sewer line. When your system functions correctly, it contains and vents these odors outside. 
• Gurgling sounds. Hearing a bubbling or gurgling sound coming from a toilet after you flush or use a sink is a strong indicator of air trapped in your system. A blockage or partial collapse in the sewer line can create this air pressure imbalance.
• Lush or soggy patches in the yard. If one area of your lawn is significantly greener, taller, or wetter than the surrounding grass, it suggests that the sewer line underneath is leaking nutrient-rich water. This saturation can eventually lead to significant yard damage.
• Water backing up. When you flush a toilet and water backs up into a tub or shower drain, your main sewer line cannot accept any more waste. This cross-contamination means your system is completely overwhelmed and requires urgent attention.

How We Repair Sewer Lines

At Rapid Response Plumbing, we specialize in trenchless sewer line repair, a modern method that fixes damaged pipes with minimal disruption to your lawn, driveway, or landscaping—saving you both time and money on property restoration.

Our Trenchless Repair Techniques

We primarily use two advanced methods: cured-in-place pipe lining and sliplining.

1. Cured-in-Place Pipe Lining (CIPP)

This technique creates a seamless, durable pipe inside your existing damaged pipe. The process includes:

• Video inspection – Pinpoints the exact location and extent of the damage.
• Pipe cleaning – High-pressure water jets remove debris, sludge, and tree roots.
• Epoxy liner insertion – An epoxy-saturated liner is inserted through a small access point, such as a sewer cleanout.
• Liner curing – The liner hardens using hot water, steam, or UV light, forming a rigid, jointless pipe.
• Final inspection – Ensures the repair is structurally sound and wastewater flows freely.

2. Sliplining

Sliplining is ideal when the existing pipe can serve as a casing for a new one. The process involves:

• Inserting a new pipe – A smaller-diameter pipe is fed into the damaged host pipe, either as a continuous length or in fused sections.
• Sealing the gap – Grout is used to fill the space between the old and new pipes, stabilizing the new liner.
• Creating a long-lasting repair – The result is a durable, reinforced pipe within the existing structure.

Why Choose Trenchless Repair?

• Minimal disruption to property
• Faster and more cost-effective than traditional methods
• Long-lasting, durable repairs
• Environmentally friendly approach

When Do I Need to Replace My Sewer Line?

Repairs may not be able to restore your sewer line when the pipe damage is too severe or widespread, such as when the pipe has collapsed or has multiple severe breaks. When replacing sewer lines, we frequently employ a trenchless method called pipe bursting.

Our plumbers can replace your damaged sewer line by pulling a brand-new pipe through the path of the old one. We start by digging two small access holes, one at the beginning and one at the end of the sewer run. Next, we can feed a bursting head, which is a conically shaped tool, through the old pipe. As the bursting head is hydraulically pulled forward, its diameter is slightly larger than the old pipe, causing it to fracture and “burst” the old pipe outward into the surrounding soil while simultaneously pulling the new pipe into its place. 

Pipe bursting may not be practical if your sewer line has major offsets that cannot be easily corrected. In these scenarios, traditional excavation may be necessary, which means our plumbers will need to dig a trench along the entire path of the sewer line from your home or business to the city connection. We can then remove the old, damaged pipe and lay a brand-new, durable pipe into the trench. Once the new line is installed and properly connected, we test the line and backfill the trench.

How Can I Prevent Future Sewer Line Problems?

Preventive maintenance is essential to avoid sewer line emergencies. Homeowners in Lawrenceville can take these steps:

• Schedule regular sewer line inspections
• Avoid flushing non-degradable items, like wipes or feminine products
• Be cautious with tree roots near sewer pipes
• Install backflow prevention devices if necessary
• Maintain proper drainage around your home

Rapid Response Plumbing also offers maintenance programs to help keep your sewer system functioning efficiently year-round.
