Recurring sewer backups, multiple slow-draining fixtures, sewage odours and water rising through basement floor drains can indicate a problem with the main building sewer. Other warning signs may include tree-root intrusion, wet or sunken areas outside, or drainage problems that return shortly after the sewer has been cleaned.

A damaged sewer does not always require complete replacement. The location, pipe material and extent of the damage must be properly assessed before the appropriate repair can be recommended.

Before recommending excavation, our plumbers evaluate the drainage symptoms and use sewer camera inspection and electronic locating equipment when appropriate. This allows us to identify broken piping, collapsed sections, offset joints, root intrusion, heavy buildup and other conditions that may be affecting the sewer.

Once the damaged section has been identified and located, we explain the findings and available repair options before additional work proceeds. This helps ensure excavation is focused on the affected area whenever conditions allow.

Once the damaged sewer section has been located, Performance Plumbing Solutions will explain the proposed work and identify the access, excavation and restoration requirements. Necessary utility locates must be completed before exterior excavation begins.

1. Diagnose and locate the damaged sewer section

2. Determine the required access and excavation area

3. Expose and remove the damaged piping

4. Install new, code-compliant sewer piping and fittings

5. Test the completed installation before backfilling

6. Complete the backfill or surface restoration included in the approved estimate

Concrete, asphalt, landscaping, flooring and other finished-surface restoration are only included when specifically stated in the estimate.

A localized break, offset or collapsed section may only require a sectional sewer repair. When the existing sewer has widespread deterioration, repeated root intrusion, multiple offsets or extensive damage, complete replacement may provide a more reliable long-term solution.

Our plumbers review the available camera findings, pipe material, accessibility and overall condition of the sewer before recommending repair or replacement. The available options and scope of work will be explained before the project proceeds.

Damaged sewer piping is removed and replaced using approved materials and fittings suitable for the installation. New piping is properly graded, connected and supported, with suitable bedding material used where required to protect the sewer and provide a stable installation.

Accessible cleanouts may also be installed to improve future maintenance and inspection access. The completed sewer is tested before backfilling to confirm proper drainage and connection.

Performance Plumbing Solutions provides complete sewer diagnosis, locating, excavation and repair through one experienced plumbing contractor. Our licensed and insured plumbers work on residential and commercial sewer systems and provide clear explanations of the problem, proposed repair and work included in the estimate.

How do I know whether my sewer is blocked or broken?

A blockage may be cleared using professional drain-cleaning equipment. If backups continue or the obstruction cannot be cleared properly, a sewer camera inspection may reveal broken piping, a collapsed section, offset joints, root intrusion or other physical damage.

Is a camera inspection required before sewer repair?

A camera inspection is often recommended when the condition of the sewer can be viewed safely and suitable access is available. In some situations, the pipe may be fully collapsed, inaccessible or filled with standing water, which can limit how much of the sewer can be inspected.

Can only the damaged section of sewer be replaced?

Yes. When the damage is isolated and the surrounding piping remains serviceable, a sectional repair may be appropriate. Complete replacement may be recommended when deterioration or damage affects a larger portion of the sewer.

Does sewer repair include concrete, asphalt or landscaping restoration?

Restoration is only included when it is specifically stated in the approved estimate. The scope will identify whether the work includes backfill, concrete replacement or other surface restoration.

How long does a sewer repair take?

The time required depends on the location and depth of the sewer, excavation conditions, utility conflicts, accessibility and extent of the damage. The expected work schedule will be discussed after the repair requirements have been determined.
