Sewer Repair and Replacement

If you’re noticing slow-draining pipes, sewage smells around your home in Gainesville, or gurgling drains, you may need professional sewer repair. Waiting to address these issues can result in costly, time-consuming, and sometimes life-threatening situations. Instead, call on the plumbers at Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® for sewer service. We’ll inspect and diagnose your sewer line, helping you understand why you’re experiencing these problems and what can be done to fix them.

What are some common causes of sewer line damage?

  • Shifting soil
  • Root Intrusion
  • Extreme temperature changes
  • Clogged drains causing backup
  • Pipe corrosion from age or caustic drain cleaners
  • Improper pipe installation

Wondering whether you should repair or replace your sewer line? Depending on the age of your system and if your sewer is beyond repair, sewer replacement may be necessary. Large cracks, significant root intrusion, and corroded pipes may indicate the need for a total sewer excavation and replacement. Don’t wait for another high water bill or that mysterious wet patch on your lawn to get bigger. No matter your issues, our professional plumbers will determine the best path forward with our sewer service, whether you need pipe lining, pipe cleaning, or a burst pipe replacement.

Leigh Darrell

Customer service and quality of work is clearly a requirement to be employed by Ben Franklin. We had multiple projects over the last couple weeks (since buying our new house) and from the beginning till the end every single technician, salesperson, project manager, dispatcher has been excellent. I highly recommend these folks. Corey has been a godsend, helping with our bathroom remodel. Nick was so helpful at explaining everything to us. Literally all 10 employees I’ve interacted with have been so kind, skilled and helpful.

Tech Technician Phil was knowledgeable and approachable, answering many of our questions while diagnosing our main problem for needing a replacement for our water heater. He set our expectations for timely repair and costs. It was a pleasure to work with him. We highly recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. Follow up service after county inspection was performed by technician Ryan which was also excellent. There was some mix up with invoicing but it got sorted out with the help of initial tech Phil. We await final county inspection but are very happy with the work.
