By Connected Plumbing 24/7 — Your Local Sewer Repair Experts


If your drains are backing up or you notice a foul smell coming from your yard, your sewer line might be to blame. Sewer problems can go from a small inconvenience to a full-blown plumbing emergency fast — especially in Sacramento’s older neighborhoods, where aging pipes - and trees are common.

At Connected Plumbing, we specialize in sewer line repair, replacement, and inspections to keep your home’s plumbing system safe, sanitary, and efficient.


🚨 Common Signs You Have a Sewer Line Problem

Most homeowners don’t think about their sewer line until something goes wrong — but early detection can save you thousands in repairs. Watch for these warning signs:

  • Multiple drains clogging or backing up at once

  • Gurgling sounds from toilets or drains

  • Sewage odors around your yard or basement

  • Wet, soggy patches in your lawn

  • Unexplained spikes in your water bill

  • Slow draining sinks or showers

  • Toilet bubbling when you run water elsewhere

If you’re seeing any of these symptoms, it’s time to call a Sacramento sewer repair plumber right away.


🔍 Professional Sewer Camera Inspections

Before digging or replacing anything, our team uses high-resolution sewer cameras to inspect the entire line. This allows us to pinpoint the exact location and cause of the problem — whether it’s tree roots, corrosion, pipe collapse, or grease buildup.

Benefits of sewer camera inspection:

  • No unnecessary digging

  • Accurate diagnosis of leaks or breaks

  • Identifies root intrusion and buildup

  • Provides video proof for insurance claims


⚙️ Sewer Line Repair Options

Every property and pipe is different, so we tailor our solution to your situation.

1. Trenchless Sewer Repair

This modern method lets us replace pipes without tearing up your yard or driveway. Using advanced technology, we pull a new pipe through while bursting the old pipe.

Benefits:

  • Minimal digging

  • Faster turnaround (often same day)

  • Long-lasting results

  • Environmentally friendly

2. Traditional Sewer Line Replacement

In cases where pipes are completely collapsed or made of outdated materials (like clay or Orangeburg), a full sewer line replacement may be necessary. Our experienced Sacramento area plumbers handle excavation safely and efficiently, restoring your property as neatly as possible.


💧 Common Causes of Sewer Line Damage in Sacramento

  • 🌳 Tree root intrusion (very common in older Sacramento neighborhoods)

  • 🧱 Corroded or deteriorated pipes

  • 🚧 Ground shifting or soil movement

  • 🛁 Grease, wipes, and debris buildup

  • 🧊 Aging infrastructure in historic homes

Understanding the root cause helps us prevent future problems — not just fix today’s issue.
