DHS Plumbing · Sewer Line Replacement

For a lateral that's finally failed.

The Quality & Integrity You Expect

Older Fair Oaks and Carmichael homes especially still run clay and cast-iron laterals from the 1950s and 60s. We replace them trenchless or open trench, permitted and inspected, in Sacramento, Placer, and El Dorado counties.

Trenchless or open trench.

What the camera finds and the site conditions decide which one fits.

Trenchless replacement

A new liner or pipe pulled through the existing path with minimal digging. Faster and less disruptive to landscaping, where the site allows it.

Open trench replacement

The traditional dig-and-replace approach, needed when the line has collapsed, shifted significantly, or trenchless access isn't practical.

What it costs and why.

Published range: Depth, total length, and whether the job goes trenchless or open trench move this number most. You get the real number in a free written estimate.
Permits: We pull the permit and get the work inspected on every replacement. Sacramento, Placer, and El Dorado counties each run their own building department, and we handle whichever one your house falls under.

We won't recommend a full replacement without seeing the line first.
