"My elderly mother is partially blind and disabled. On November 1, 2021 her washing machine broke leaking water in her home. In desperation she called rotor rooter. Roto rooter came out, stopped the leak, and put dryers in and left. They returned a few days later to remove the dryers. The technician quoted my mother a cost of about $3000.00. My mother signed a contract but could not see what she was signing. After Roto rooter Reno removed the dryers they sent a bill to my mother for $9000.00. The contract she signed stated Roto rooter would remove walls, roofing, insulation, baseboard, tile etc. Roto rooter didn’t do any of those things. Roto rooter is price gauging and took advantage of an elderly disabled woman. Roto rooter technicians were in the home no more than 3 hours total. First my mother did not have capacity to enter into a contract as she couldn’t see what she was signing. 2 Roto rooters technicians told her the cost would be about $3000.00. 3 Roto rooter did not do the work in the contract. I believe Roto rooter is commuting elder abuse and fraud."

"The guys that came out and worked on the waterline were very nice, professional and got the job done in one day. They did an awesome job! I think they were a little high on the price. But it was done right and fast. Thanks for Apollo plumbing."

"In 40 years of dealing with contractors we've never experienced anything close to the con job Puget Sound Plumbing's plumber Joseph pulled on us. They ripped us off for $662 for 36 minutes of labor just to swap out the valves on our new tankless water heater, and we had the new valve kit. A horrible rip off by a terrible con artist plumber at PSP, Joseph, who claimed he was a journeyman. We contacted PSP to speak with the owner and the staff claimed "we don't have his number or email." Save yourself the con job, the headache, and a ton of money, just say no! All consumers can verify that ALL plumbers in Washington "bill by the hour," and the hourly union rate is currently $90 to $135 in Seattle, King County, and per Washington state L&I, and Plumber's Union local #32."

FAQs for sewer main install, replace or repair projects in Arlington, WA

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.
