The Detail
New Sewer Line Installation, Not Just Repair
This spoke of our Sewer & Water Line Excavation Repair service covers new sewer line installation, not just repair. Whether you're adding a bathroom, building a new structure on your property, or replacing a line that's beyond what lining or coating can fix, we excavate the path, install new pipe, and connect it into your existing sewer main or septic system.
In Practice
When a New Sewer Line Is Needed
New sewer line installation comes up most often with additions and new construction, where no line exists yet, or with an existing line that's failed too severely for a trenchless fix — a full collapse or a section that needs to be upsized to carry more flow. In either case, the job starts the same way: confirming exactly what's there, and what needs to connect to what, before we dig.
Worth Knowing

Excavation along the planned sewer line path.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between sewer line installation and sewer line repair?
Installation runs an entirely new line — for a new addition, new construction, or when an existing line is damaged beyond what lining or repair can fix — while repair replaces or fixes a specific damaged section of an existing line.
How much does new sewer line installation cost?
Sewer line work is priced starting at $60 per linear foot, the same confirmed rate used across our Sewer & Water Line Excavation Repair hub, with a free estimate and a quote required before work begins.
Do I need a permit for a new sewer line?
Yes — permit fees are $150 per permit pulled, and we handle the permitting as part of the installation.
Can you connect a new sewer line to an existing septic system or sewer main?
Yes — we locate and confirm the connection point with a camera inspection, then connect the new line to your existing sewer main or septic system during installation.
How long does sewer line installation take?
We offer a quick scheduling response, but installation itself — excavation, pipe installation, backfill, compaction, and restoration — typically spans multiple days once work begins.
