Sewer Services 

Sewer line problems can disrupt your home, create health hazards, and become costly if left unchecked. Even sewer fumes are harmful to your health due to exposure to hydrogen sulfide. That’s why it’s so important to address these issues with care and precision. At Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, our licensed plumbers bring decades of experience and the dedication you need when facing sewer troubles. 

From routine repairs to urgent emergencies, we’re available 24/7 to provide reliable sewer services that keep your home safe and comfortable.

Comprehensive Sewer Services for Your Home

Every home is different, and so is every sewer system. Our team has the training and expertise to work with all types of residential sewer systems, including sanitary, storm, and combined sewers. We provide a full range of sewer services.

Sewer Line Repair

We fix cracks, root damage, corrosion, or backups from clogged drains through our residential sewer line services. With camera inspection technology and targeted repairs, we restore proper flow quickly and help prevent future issues.

Trenchless Sewer Repair

Our trenchless sewer repair minimizes disruption with minimal surface impact — it's a cost-effective alternative to traditional methods. If standard repairs aren't possible or ideal, trenchless sewer repair is the best option.

Sewer Line Replacement

When repairs aren’t possible, our technicians provide full sewer line replacement services to dig up the damaged lines and install new ones. This process is the best option for lines with extensive damage.

We're available 24/7 with no overtime or weekend fees.

If you’re noticing signs like foul odors, frequent clogs, slow drains, water pooling in your yard, or mold around your plumbing, it may be time to schedule sewer services with our team.

Sewer FAQs

Why does my bathroom smell like sewer?

A sewer-like odor often comes from bacteria growing inside bathroom drains. Clear out any debris, using a brush if necessary, and flush the drains thoroughly to eliminate buildup. Another common cause is a dry P-trap. Running water in the tub, shower, and sink for a minute usually refills the trap and stops the smell.

Can a sewer line unclog itself?

It’s possible, but it's never a good idea to risk it. Even if a sewer line clog manages to clear itself, it’s possible that damage either caused or resulted from the clog. It’s always best to contact a licensed plumber to inspect your sewer lines if you’re dealing with any kind of backup. This way, they’ll find any additional repair needs and determine a long-term maintenance solution to prevent hazardous and costly damage.

Can you tell me what to do when your sewer backs up?

Here’s what you should do:

  1. Call your local Benjamin Franklin Plumbing for emergency sewer services at (800) 259-7705.
  2. Follow the direct advice of your plumber.
  3. Wear protective gear if you have to walk through any sewage.
  4. Avoid using any plumbing fixtures until your plumber arrives.

Does home insurance cover sewer lines?

In many cases, home insurance will cover sewer line damage within your property lines if it’s caused by a covered natural disaster. Damage due to poor installation, neglect, or lack of maintenance is typically not covered. For the specifics of your policy, contact your insurance provider to confirm your coverage and limitations.
