  • Sewage line installation can seem intimidating, but with our team of experts, it’s a quick process completed correctly the first time. How exactly will we go about installing your newer sewer line? Read on for a play-by-play of our installation process:

    • Assess Trench Depth: Because parts of your sewer line will be under the concrete slab of your home, we’ll need to figure out exactly how deep we’ll need to dig the trench. The sewer line begins where the main line exits the foundation, where it then slopes down towards the city main. Our plumbers will use cutting-edge equipment to ensure all precise measurements are correct.
    • Calculate the Slope: The slope of your sewer line must be at least 2% or higher. The tricky part is calculating the exact slope that won’t let your wastewater move too fast. This will help you avoid clogs and other future sewer line issues.
    • Dig and Bed: A brand-new sewer line installation requires digging. If you have an existing line, we'll use one of our trenchless methods, but for new lines, we'll need to excavate. Don't stress, we're very careful with the soil around your residential property and will only dig what is necessary. After digging, we'll likely use gravel for bedding to help with sloping.
    • Install the New Sewer Line: Starting with the lowest section and working our way up, we’ll connect each one with gasket fittings and solvent glue. To help minimize leaks, we’ll also use female bell-ends on each section that faces uphill before finishing with cleanout installation.
    • Inspect: We will inspect your new system and ensure it meets all conditions and codes for correct Vancouver sewer line installation.
    • Backfill: When everything is up to our high standards and ready for use, we’ll fill the trench with layers of compacted soil that prevent it from settling.

    Already have an existing sewer line that needs to be replaced? We’ll likely use hydraulic pipe bursting. Pipe bursting is performed when your pipes have more serious damage. To do this, we’ll use hydraulic equipment to burst your existing sewer line so that a new pipeline can slide in its place. While this process sounds extreme, it can be completed within a day and will not require excessive digging in your yard. If your pipes have minimal issues, we’ll likely recommend sewer line repair instead.

FAQs About Sewer Line Installation

  • In your research about sewage line installation, you might have come across various different terms and are now wondering if there is, in fact, any difference between them. When plumbers refer to your drain line, they’re likely talking about the piping inside your home or building. When discussing your sewer line, they mean the main piping system outside your home. Homes and businesses may need repairs to both of these lines at the same time if they are damaged all the way through; however, these lines often need replacement for different reasons. While clogged drains can happen at any point, they’re more likely to occur in your drain line. On the other hand, tree roots won’t often get as far as drain piping but will infiltrate your sewer line.
