Sewer pipe replacement is a significant investment for homeowners and commercial property owners. A malfunctioning sewer system can lead to various issues, including sewer backup, unpleasant odors, and even health hazards due to the spread of bacteria and viruses.
As the trusted name in sewer repair in Seattle, WA, Price Busters Plumbing shares a few factors to consider when replacing sewer pipes.
Pipe Material
The type of material used for your pipes is an important consideration when it comes to sewer replacement. Each material has advantages and disadvantages, so it is essential to research which one best suits your needs.
Copper pipes are extremely durable and don’t corrode as easily as other materials. However, they can be difficult to install and require specialized tools for properly cutting and soldering the pipes together. PVC pipes are lightweight and relatively easy to install, but their durability is not as impressive as copper or cast iron. Polybutylene is a cheap option to replace sewer line pipes and can last for up to 15 years if properly maintained, but it is prone to cracking and leaking. Cast iron pipes are the most expensive option but are highly durable and can withstand extreme temperatures.
Installation Method
The method of installation for your sewer pipe will depend on the existing plumbing setup and terrain. Trenchless technology is becoming increasingly popular as it requires minimal disruption to landscaping and can reduce costs significantly. Traditional trenching is also an option but it is more invasive and expensive.
Labor Costs
After selecting a pipe material and installation method, it is vital to consider the labor cost for the sewer pipe line repair. Labor costs can vary greatly depending on the complexity of the job and the experience level of your contractor.
