"Wonderful. Very personable, explained everything in detail, listened to all my concern's. Very professional, checked everything and made sure everything worked perfectly. I could not have found anyone better than Drip Doctors. Pipes that had to be dug up and replaced they returned the yard back to as close as they could before digging. When grass grows it will look pretty much the same. I would highly recommend them to anyone that has plumber problems and pipe problems. They helped the hard experience of all that had to be done easier for me with their wonderful attitude towards their client, me, by helping me understand what and why each procedure was done. They are great, the plumbers to call."

"Josh came out to give an estimate and was able to do the work while he was there. He also identified an issue that previous plumbers had no mentioned and took care of that as well. Cost was reasonable and work was done quickly."

"Our septic alarm went off a week or so ago and we ignored it (hoping it would miraculously reset or something as we knew it meant expense and we are seniors on a fixed income). We started getting a stink in the back yard around the septic and the toliets weren't flushing right so I called them about 1 pm today and they said they would be out within the hour and they were. My husband went out and watched as they worked. When they opened the tank to pump it, it was literally ready to start backing up into the house! We won't ignore an alarm again. They told us about how it generally backs up to the washing machine first and then to sinks, showers, tubs, etc. and that they had just had a lady that had that happen and threw away her washer because she couldn't get the smell out. We knew we were blessed to have avoided a very costly mess. They were fast, efficient and very friendly. I had paid nearly $500 to another company simply to replace my septic pump five years ago with no pumping of the tank. When Affordable removed it, it was a plastic pump which they informed us doesn't hold up very well. It was dead. After they pumped the tank and confirmed that the pump needed to be replaced, they had to make a trip to the supply house to get a new pump and return and install it. They were back and had the job wrapped up before 4:00 PM. It wasn't cheap, but was comparable to what projected costs were on Angie's List with this kind of project. They will definitely be the first guys we will call if we ever have issues again. We highly recommend Affordable Septic!!! Thanks guys!"

"Joseph was very prompt in calling back with an appointment time. Quick to give us a quote and always available for questions. He installed a new water heater in our home. There were a few minor issues with the install, but he promptly came back ASAP on a Saturday and took care of them himself. He is honest and a very good person to work with. Would highly recommend him."

FAQs for sewer main install, replace or repair projects in Advance, NC

When installing a sewer line, you should consider extra costs like tree removal, driveway repairs, or patio resurfacing. Hiring a professional plumber is essential, and you may need additional specialists if landscaping or heavy excavation is involved. Addressing these potential extras up front helps ensure accurate budgeting and prevents sudden cost overruns.

To calculate the length of sewer piping you need, measure the distance from your house to the main sewer line, adding the depth of the city main to this distance. Be sure to account for any obstacles like tree roots or utility lines that may require additional piping.

City sewer lines are installed at a lower elevation to prevent unwanted backflow and water damage. This lower positioning ensures enhanced performance and long-term safety, meeting all technical and safety standards.

With trenchless methods, a plumber inserts a smaller pipe within the existing plumbing, avoiding full excavation. It can be more cost-effective and less disruptive than traditional methods, but it's not suitable for all homes.

Yes, you must secure permission from your local water authority before connecting to a public sewer line. This approval ensures your connection meets all regulatory requirements.

Sewer lines are buried between 18 inches and 8 feet deep, with most systems placed between 18 and 30 inches. In colder regions, pipes are set deeper to remain below the frost line.
