Customers say: Quality work

"The issues I ended up having were very complex and I had a rather large scale situation to deal with that was the result of an accidental sewer line sever from another property having work done on their home. SD lining solutions was able to work with me to tell me what I would need done to restore plumbing function to my home. They showed up on time for all the additional appointments I had to make to discuss details with all other parties. I don t know what I would have done without Ben! Most honest hard working guy I have ever met! I even decided to add an additional job for him that he could do for me since he does more than just scoping and locating lines and I found it is a very versatile business he owns after speaking to him and since he would be digging on my property already to fix my problem, I figured I would get this done now too as an after thought with what I had to deal with and only have to have my yard dug up once that way. He worked it out in a way that would allow him to fit part of the job in now that involved the digging and finish it in a couple of weeks because it wasn t an urgent one that I decided to add on."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

While you don’t have to run out and immediately buy a new toilet at the first sign of a clog, if the toilet keeps clogging because it’s a low-flow or poorly designed model, a new toilet may be the way to go. If your toilet keeps clogging, you can try using less toilet paper, adjusting the fill valve, checking the toilet vent pipe on the roof, and using a toilet auger to make sure nothing is stuck in the pipe or trap.

A sewage ejector pump is necessary if you have any plumbing fixtures, such as a bathroom, laundry room, or sink, located below the level of your home's main sewer line. Standard plumbing relies on gravity to move wastewater and solid waste to the municipal sewer or septic tank. However, for fixtures located below grade (e.g., in a basement), gravity is not sufficient.

The purpose of a sewage ejector pump is to actively pump this wastewater and solid waste upward into the main sewer line. Without an ejector pump in this situation, wastewater would have no way to exit and would eventually back up, causing a sewage overflow or flooding in your basement. If all of your home's plumbing is on the main floor or higher, gravity can handle the drainage, and an ejector pump is not needed.

Installing a new sewer line costs between $50 and $250 per linear foot. Most sewer line insulation projects and up costing around $3,500 on average. Just how much your drain line will cost depends on the length of the pipes, the type of piping material, the depth, and any obstacles that may be in the way. For instance, excavating and working around trees or boulders will increase your costs.

No, you don’t need to use plumber’s putty to install a sink drain. Other options are available, such as silicone putty or silicone caulk. Plumber’s putty is the traditional method and it’s easier to work with and easier to remove. It doesn’t need to dry before using. Silicone putty should dry before you use the drain.

Installing a plumbing system is a project best left to professional plumbers. Plumbing systems involve tons of moving parts—water supply lines, pipes, drain lines, sewer connections, and connections to appliances like water heaters, washing machines, and dishwashers. Improper installation of your plumbing system can leave your house vulnerable to potential damages that could result in flooding or damage to your home’s foundation. While you can DIY your way through common plumbing problems like fixing clogged drains or leaky faucets, it’s highly recommended that you contact a plumbing professional for most of your plumbing-related tasks, especially installing the system.
