Sewer Line Replacement removes the old pipe completely and installs a new one from cleanout to city tap. When a line has deteriorated beyond what any trenchless method can address, full replacement is the honest answer, and the one that actually holds.
The first call costs nothing. Flat-rate pricing. No upsells, ever.
Trenchless methods are our first choice, but some situations require full Sewer Line Replacement. Four scenarios come up repeatedly on Charlotte jobs.
Sewer Line Replacement becomes more disruptive and more expensive the longer it's delayed. Four reasons to schedule it before the line forces the issue.
Sewer Line Replacement is a major job: preparation, permitting, and precision matter. Four standards drive every LiningWorks replacement.
Same five-step Sewer Line Replacement sequence on every residential job, whether the run is 28 feet or 280 feet. Here's how it actually works.
HD sewer camera maps the run. A sonde locator marks depth and path on the surface. The Sewer Line Replacement excavation footprint is set before a single shovel touches the ground.

We open the trench along the camera-marked path, remove the old sewer pipe, and prepare a clean, sloped sand bed for the Sewer Line Replacement pipe. All debris leaves the site the same day.

Schedule-40 PVC pipe is set in the sand bed at a minimum 1/4-inch-per-foot slope. Every joint is gasket-sealed. City-tap and cleanout connections are made per code.
Schedule a consultation
We backfill in 6-inch lifts, mechanically compact each layer, and return the surface to pre-project condition. Sod, gravel, or concrete patching is coordinated the same day.
Schedule a consultation
A final camera walk confirms the new pipe is clear, graded, and fully connected. We submit the inspection request to close the permit. You receive both camera videos and the permit record.

A NoDa bungalow with a 52-foot cast-iron main that had multiple collapses and a reversed-grade belly in the middle, a case no trenchless solution could bridge. Our Sewer Line Replacement removed the old line, re-graded the entire run, and installed schedule-40 PVC. The yard was restored the same afternoon.
That sequence (scope, mark, remove, install, restore, permit) is how every LiningWorks Sewer Line Replacement runs. One flat price, one crew, one day for most residential jobs. No sub-contractors, no second invoices.
