Collapsed Sewer Line Repair

A drain that will not clear at all, sewage that returns days after cleaning, or a dip forming in the yard over the sewer route can point to a collapsed or sagging pipe in Waterbury, CT. Limit water use until the line is checked, and keep people off soft or sunken ground.

Repairing a collapsed line
A plumber may run a camera to find the collapse or belly, mark it above ground, dig out the failed length, set new pipe at the right slope and check nearby joints.

Stopping a repeat sag
About three in four Waterbury homes predate 1980. Ask the plumber what will support the new pipe so the same section does not sink again.

Call about a collapsed or sagging line and say which drains have stopped and where the ground dipped.
