Clay-to-ABS sewer coupling repair

The lateral is the private pipe from your building to the public sewer. Clay, Orangeburg, and old cast-iron laterals in the South Bay fail with roots, offsets, and belly sections. Replacement is a yard-and-parkway project with traffic and restoration variables.

We locate the line before we open pavement. Spot repairs still belong on the repair page if the rest of the lateral is healthy.

Common symptoms

  • A municipal letter about a failed lateral
  • Roots every few months at the same spot
  • A belly that recleans and comes right back

What this service involves

  • Locating and confirming material and depth
  • Replacing the private lateral in the approved route
  • New cleanouts and testing

  4. After you approve, we schedule the job.

FAQ

Where does my responsibility end?
Usually at the connection to the public sewer, but cities differ. We work the private side we are hired for.
Trenchless lateral?
Possible when the host pipe and access allow it. Collapsed or badly offset laterals may still need open trench.
Will you restore the lawn?
Restoration level is specified on the estimate: backfill, rough grade, or more. Landscaping specialty work may be another trade.
