"A team removed a leaking tank hot water heater and replaced it with a tankless hot water heater. My house is 45 years old and all projects end up being a bit more difficult then on a newer house. The team assessed the existing infrastructures for two HVAC units, a gas dryer, and washer pipes in the utility room. They came up with a plan that Worked around all these vents and wires. They ordered the unit and venting and began working. It was a two day installation because of the Covid delay on shipping the item. After removing the old tank, they installed the new wiring and turned my water on for use in the house overnight. The rest of the project went very smoothly. Ryan stayed with the job the entire time. The owner and another technician came by periodically to see if anything was needed. I couldn t be happier with the job. They cleared all job materials at the end of each day. They are very courteous and knowledgeable. I highly recommend them for anyone replacing hot water heaters, cleaning laundry drains , and repairing leaking toilets because after they finished the hot water heater, I hired them to come back and do two additional jobs at my house."

"Mike & crew were beyond my expectations! Needing septic repair and trying to find a competent and reasonably priced professional is harder than it should be, until I found MKB Plumbing and Septic. They took the time to listen to me, assess the situation and give me an immediate quote. Work was performed the next day and I couldn't be happier with the results! I would recommend this company for any plumbing or septic problem. Mike, the owner, is knowledgeable, professional and a cut above any other plumbing contractor I've dealt with in the past. Call them!"

"We recently had this company replace our original 1000 gallon septic tank with a 1500 gallon upgrade, along with an additional drain field line and they did a great job. If you want people who are skilled, hardworking and honest to handle your project, then I recommend that you give NC Septic & Pump your consideration. Their communication is excellent and they are very easy and pleasant to work with."

"Superior Plumbing were a tremendous help! We needed to change our plumbing from a septic tank in the rear of the house, over to city sewer to the front of the house. They were very professional and did an amazing job. They brought in a backhoe to dig the trench in the front of the house to the sewer tap at the front of the yard. Then they had to put in new pipes under the crawl space of the house and reroute them to the new entrance. So much work during a heat wave! They were fantastic with communication and everything they said they would do were completed over an above expectations! We highly recommend Superior Pluming and Drains, LLC and will always use them for any work we need. Another major point in their favor was their price. We called in 4 plumbers with varying price quotes. They weren't the lowest but they were half the price of one! We were very confident after talking with them even more so after their work! You won't be disappointed with them and their cost of very reasonable!"

"I had an email shortly after I contacted and quote received not long after. I needed my faucet repaired but I also needed to replace my garbage disposal. I ordered one but could not get until Oct. 12th . I thought about waiting however the leak in my faucet kept getting worse. I was again contacted & the contractor offered to look at first & provide a free quote. He came out shortly later, quoted, and I accepted & faucet was repaired. I told about the Garbage D. ordered & he quoted but also said I would need a switch box because of the plug line which I would have to put in or call an electrician. After he left I checked out other disposals, w/ good ratings & if in stock. I found one, had credit given on first and picked up at the store that evening. I called him & advised and he said he would be out the next day to install if I desired. I said yes and gave time necessary. That day came and he was here almost at that very time and installed a new disposal. He did nice job and was very nice to talk with ."

"Jacob and Tim are amazing. I am writing to share our experience for the job they did with the gas line piping installation and water connection at our home. Tim took extra time to explain the scope of work and provided a clear understandable estimate. ( labor, materials, permits, warranty, payment terms and lastly affordable compared to others). NO upsell of services or get you to join their club. Their quality of work was exceptional, and we were impressed with their professionalism and attention to detail throughout the entire process. It is a relief to have such an important project completed safely and efficiently. We truly appreciate their expertise and will certainly use them again and recommend their services to anyone in need of a skilled plumber."

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