"Called on a Friday afternoon with sewer backup and Owen & co-worker arrived within a couple of hours and unclogged the line. They were very professional and friendly. I was pleased with their work but not with the news that tree roots were the cause and would require an expensive repair (excavation/partial sewer line replacement). Merry Christmas!"

"Evergreen did a very nice job but the price was out of sight! $5000. to replace a bathtub is a lot of money. what do plumbers get per hour? This does not include any wall or hole repairs, just installing tub with new faucets and drain. maybe I don't know what the actual rate for plumbers but I think it is more than a doctor!"

"The plumber was here when scheduled to arrive. There was a problem that was created by the plumbers who installed the previous toilet, but the D & F plumber had the problem solved and correctly installed the new toilet without long delays or needing to go back to the shop. Everything he needed was in his truck."

"We have used Speedy Septic twice, both for emergency situations. They were very responsive to our calls with excellent customer service. The techs were helpful in troubleshooting and explaining the problems. It’s comforting to know you can get a messy situation resolved quickly. When we had an issue with a pipe installation they were quick to resolve and stood by their work."

FAQs for sewer main install, replace or repair projects in Salem, OR

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.
