"great job professional and pleasant. Read the reviews before hiring, only negative were about price, but what do you expect for someone willing to play in your sewer water? yes i could have gone to home depo and rented the equipment watched a you tube video on how to use it, but having a professional that has the skills and knowledge and proper tools is well worth the expense "

"Just too expensive for what you get. Feels like a big company nickel and dime move. I get having a trip charge. Which was $109. But then to have the tech who was great btw (not his fault), but was tentative about fixing the problem because of creating more damage. Another $160 for a simple diagnostic charge, again without fixing the problem. I already knew the diagnosis. So he basically did a Band-Aid fix (greased the Knob) and still charged me over $280+ for what equated to be 10 minutes of work. It was ridiculously high for the service provided. Next time I?m going to an independent, local guy. "

"We recently had Bourque Mechanical Systems replace our old oil boiler, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. Steve was our main point of contact, and he was excellent throughout the process. He was straightforward, never overpromised, and consistently steered us in the right direction, which made a potentially stressful project feel very manageable. The quality of the work was legitimately the best we’ve experienced from any organization that has worked on our home in the last ten years. The job itself was sizable, yet the team was thorough, professional, and completed everything in a single day without cutting corners. What really stood out to me was the attention to detail. The work site was kept clean, and the final product was incredibly well done. I truly appreciate a clean, organized job site, and Bourque exceeded expectations in that regard. I couldn’t be more impressed and would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing mechanical or heating system work."

FAQs for sewer main install, replace or repair projects in Schenectady, NY

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.
