Main Sewer Replacement - SoCal
Hi - my main sewer line (clay) is nearly done for and needs an overhaul. Significant cracks in 5-10 different places and the connection to city sewer is near broken. The entire line runs underneath the driveway for 85 feet. Looking for thoughts on what I should expect the repair to cost. $10k? $20k? $25k? If you're in the area, I'll gladly look at your reviews and consider doing business.
Around clean-out, excavate ~20 square feet concrete and dig 3 feet to reach clay sewer line.
At end of driveway / by sidewalk, excavate 24 square feet concrete and dig 6 feet to reach clay line.
Using Trenchless system, 85 feet of pipe burst (4 inch), from clean-out to sidewalk.
Perform 6 inch lining from sidewalk to middle of street. ~30 feet
Since the clay pipe to the city sewer connection is completely broken and requires it to be taken care of ASAP, a top hat system is needed on the main house sewer connection to the city line.
Install a two-way clean-out on the back parking area and one more clean-out access near sidewalk with proper traffic sewer box on both clean out access.
Patch up concrete and haul trash.
