Sewer Line Repair in Tempe: What to Know
Recurring backups, gurgling drains or sewage smells in the yard usually mean a damaged sewer lateral. A camera inspection shows the exact problem before you pay for a fix.
- Many north Tempe homes date to the 1950s–70s with original sewer lines nearing end of life.
Signs your sewer line is failing
Recurring backups, gurgling drains, sewage odors in the yard, unusually green patches of lawn, or multiple slow drains at once often point to a damaged sewer line.
Trenchless vs. excavation
Pipe lining and pipe bursting replace or reinforce a line with minimal digging, sparing landscaping and hardscape. Traditional excavation can be the better choice for collapsed or severely bellied lines.
