"Nick G. Is professional, punctual and friendly. I had a leak coming from the kitchen sink and draining to my basement. This leak would have rotted the floor and caused considerable damage. Upon discovering this , I contacted my son, Clint Ehman, an electrician for Hoffman, to get a referral . Nick G. came out today, diagnosed the problem and fixed it. Nick fixed the problem and made my day so much better. The cost was fair and the work he did is exceptional. A shout out to a job well done. We will recommend Nick G. to family and friends."

"Performance Plumbing provided professional and prompt service. They quickly assessed the issue, provided an upfront quote, completed the work (cleared a clog in the sewer line between the house and the main, then cleared another clog in the internal line leading from the kitchen), and charged exactly what they had quoted. I would definitely use them again. Thank you, Jesse and Drew!"

I had 3 to do's I needed done.  One was accomplished. 

On one, the workman stated the part I had wouldn't work, suggested I return the part for a similar part from a recommended supplier & then call provider back for another appt.

On the last to do, as I recall, he didn't have seals for the type of faucet that was leaking.  Workman suggested that we replace the faucet rather than have the seals replaced.  Again, recommended a supplier to obtain a new faucet & then we could call them back for another appt.

"Curtis called me back right away and had come for an estimate before any other company had even called me back. He was very good about communicating with me and had the work completed within one week of my call. We haven't had a huge rain since the repair work was done, but all looks good and I'm confident that the leak is patched. He also did not leave a mess at my house, which is huge in my book :) Would definitely hire again."

It went excellent.  We have used Spenglers in the past for a complete Water Heater replacement, their office staff are spot on, their field techs are professional, personable and knowledgeable.  They arrived on time, I was notified by the office when they were on the way, they made their scheduled arrival, and the entire job took less than 4 hours.  The quality of materials is outstanding, the lines were all soldered in without any leaks, and the technician even took the time to show me how the new faucet could be tightened if leaks appear later on.  This job is now two months complete and I have no leaks, and I can (finally) wash the cars and water the front flower beds without hauling hose or buckets.  Awesome job for the Spengler's team!

"Were very accommodating about setting appointment at a time convenient for me. Arrived promptly and were very polite. Explained well the process they would be doing and seemed to work very hard to accomplish the objective. Before starting, I was given a couple additional options to add to the items to be cleaned on the original sign-up, for additionall cost, tho I wasn't pressured. Decided to get them. Showed me a "before and after" picture of one of ducts. Job took about 5 hrs, and I have a modest sized house! Only complaint I have is that they brought a rather heavy, bulky machine into house to do the job, and due to having to maneuver in a couple tight areas, the machine did leave some marks on my hard wood floors that I have been trying to remove, with some effort."

FAQs for sewer main install, replace or repair projects in Columbia, IL

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.
