Residential Sewer Excavation FAQs

  • Repairing a sewer line or septic system is an involved process. The procedure may involve digging up large portions of your yard and could take multiple days. But excavation may be necessary if you notice certain signs like:

    • Water pressure problems: Slow changes in water pressure usually indicate a leak caused by corrosion in your water or sewer lines. In severe cases, this could trigger backflow into your toilets, sinks, and bathtubs.
    • Sagging floors: If a sewer line leak gets bad enough, it can affect your foundation. This can cause your floors to bow and sag. If you see this, call a plumber immediately. Foundation damage puts your whole house at risk.
    • Persistent sewage odors: Though it’s buried underground, a hole in your sewer line will still make your yard smell less than pleasant. In many cases, you may need excavation services to solve this problem.
    • Sinkholes: When your sewer line leaks underground, it can create air pockets that collapse, causing sinkholes in your yard. Like foundation issues, sinkholes are extremely serious. If you ever get a sinkhole on your property, call a plumber as soon as possible to fix the problem.
