"I had a leak in the bathroom, flooded the floor. I called a big-name local service. They said they'd send the first available workman to our home. Four days later they hadn't responded and then they told me that they were so busy they didn't believe they'd ever get here. The suggested to go elsewhere. I did! And, I certainly glad that I found JAB! There are no words to express how pleased I am with their work, their cleanliness, and their pricing. They were more than $500 under another quote I received. JAB is now my #1 go-to plumbers."

FAQs for sewer main install, replace or repair projects in Athens, PA

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.
