"He was doing great and doing extra things. I paid him 3,200.00 for materials and he said he ordered them in July they were supposed to be delivered 08/02/21. He contacted me and said they were on back order, communicated thru 09/13/21. I have not heard from him since. I called Home Depot and they said he never placed an order. I have called and emailed, text, left messages and I have not heard from him since. He still has my screen door that he was supposed to repair along with my money. I think if something has happened to him someone in his family would have notified me."

Repair Sewer Line questions, answered by experts

Replacing cast iron pipes when they’ve reached the end of their life span is key to preventing leaks and clogs. Over time, cast iron pipes corrode and experience pipe scale, which thickens the inside of the walls and increases the chance of clogs while also decreasing water flow. As the material deteriorates, you could experience costly leaks that increase reparation expenses. 

Cast iron can last between 50 and 75 years, but it’s still a good idea to check for leaks as your pipes approach the 25-year mark, as pipes can already show signs of deterioration within the first three decades.

Some signs that your main sewer line is clogged are easy to spot, like when water backs up into your showers, sinks, and toilets for no apparent reason. However, some indicators are more subtle. The most common signs that you may have a clogged sewer main include:

  • Gurgling sounds coming from drains or toilet

  • Water in your basement drain or in the lawn

  • Smell of raw sewage throughout your home

  • Other found odors like rotten eggs around your home

Sewer line replacement costs often seem high because this is a labor-intensive project that requires excavation, pipe removal, and pipe replacement. It takes a team of experienced, licensed technicians to handle the planning required. Sewer pipe work also requires specialized equipment that can include high-tech inspection cameras, excavators, trenching machines, and relining tools. While costs can vary based on the type of piping you choose, high-quality pipe materials that provide years of safe usage can come at a premium.

Replacing cast iron pipes can take anywhere between a few hours to more than five weeks to complete, depending on the project's scope. Small projects like simply replacing a pipe in your kitchen or sink can be accomplished in one day. Meanwhile, extensive underground projects will take much longer to complete and are weather-dependent.

The good news: you don’t have to think about this very often. Plastic, lead, and cast iron sewer lines last 50 to 100 years, depending on soil conditions and tree roots. The part you can control is keeping them clear by watching what goes down the drain. Use compost pails for food scraps, cooking grease, and paper towels.
