When a homeowner in Abernathy started dealing with slow drains and recurring backups, a band-aid fix wasn't going to cut it. The line had reached the end of its life, and the only real solution was a full replacement - from the front of the house all the way out to the alley.
That's exactly what we did. We dug the full run, pulled the old line, and installed new PVC from the house to the street connection. We also tied in a brand new city tap, so this homeowner isn't just patching a problem - they're starting fresh with a clean, properly connected system.
A job like this is bigger than it looks. Getting the grade right on a long run matters a lot. If the pipe doesn't slope correctly the whole way through, you end up with low spots where waste sits and builds up. That leads to the same problems all over again. We take the time to do it right the first time.
The cleanout access you can see near the foundation is there for a reason too. If there's ever an issue down the road, a plumber can get in there quickly without having to dig up the yard. It's a small detail that makes a big difference for long-term maintenance.
Sewer line problems don't fix themselves, and waiting usually makes them worse - and more expensive. If you've been dealing with slow drains, gurgling pipes, or sewage smells in your yard, it's worth getting someone out to take a look before a repair turns into a full emergency.
