"Really happy with everything. They came out and gave a very competitive estimate, offered to replace water heater within 24 hours (no need for us, ours was working, just rusted and beginning to leak) but despite not having the emergency need, they handled the install the next day. Great staff all around, I highly recommend."

"Prompt and professional, answered our questions and gave good recommendations for future maintenance. We initially scheduled a septic cleaning using Angie's List coupon, but added the additional cleaning of station since needed. It was not pushed on us! We chose to get everything brought up-to-date at this time. We'll certainly call them in the future for any needs!

"I've done business with Air Experts for well over 10 years from installation of a replacement system in our previous house followed by regular service and service in our new house. We're on the annual maintenance plan. Techs arrive on time, are neat, take care of the maintenance efficiently, explain what was done and handle the paperwork quickly. Will continue to use them and recommend them."

"They completed the task. No leaking in the 2 areas. They only sealed the pipe when I asked for a replacement and they didn't restore the drywall that was cut. But the problem was solved"

"I called PlumbServe for an estimate to repair a main water line leak, but I decided not to use them. There was a miscommunication about whether the water had been turned back on which caused me to take a half day off from work to turn the water back on at the meter. Before I got a chance to call the PlumbServe office and tell them off, the owner called me and asked me to explain the situation. I did, and I was not very polite about it. He calmly apologized for the miscommunication, and offered to repair the leaking water line for free He got one of his plumbers out to me right away and got the repair done quickly, efficiently, and correctly. Every company will make mistakes from time to time, and that can’t be avoided. As a customer, what you want is a company that will make things right when they make a mistake, and PlumbServe absolutely does that, even when it costs them. I'd happily recommend PlumbServe to anyone."

"I have to be honest, I have been selfishly putting off leaving this review because I didn't want everyone knowing what a gem Edwin from PK Plumbing is. Edwin has come to our rescue WAY too often in the past year or so. Most recently, we had a massive leak in our crawl space which had apparently been going on for a long time before the pipe totally split. Edwin squeezed us in to come out and get the leak sorted out. Unfortunately, it took a couple of days because as he fixed one area, another would spring a leak. (Darned aging Polybutylene piping!) Edwin is extremely professional and definitely knows what he is doing. He is honest and friendly and doesn't charge you an arm and a leg like some companies would. We are fortunate to have found him and hope that he stays in business for a long time to come. I am pretty sure we will have to utilize him on a regular basis as the piping slowly fails in our house. (Unless we win the lottery to get all the pipes replaced in one fell swoop! We can hope! :D)"

"Chris came early and left quickly. He took me through each step of my repairs and kept me informed of everything he and Mike did. I was quite satisfied with the work. I used to have some apprehension about calling in a plumber but I now feel confident in Blanton's and their workers. They stand by their work and promised if anything went wrong, they would return and repair free of charge. That's what I call customer service!"

"A little high for the items called for (reconnecting plumbing and gas after countertop replacement). Very courteous and good at upselling. Replaced my pressure gauge and relocated the main shut off to the house. Both needed done, but had not considered before recommendation. Ultimately good experience, but spent well more than I was thinking when making initial contact."

FAQs for sewer main install, replace or repair projects in Durham, 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.
