Replacing Cast iron sewer pipe

[Chengning Yang]

Does anyone have investor friendly plumbing companies in DFW area for sewer inspection and repair? The house just got foundation repaired, and obviously there’s a leakage at some point. I’ve had a couple of plumbing companies came and quoted me from 30k - 70k to repipe the whole house(2700 sf) which I think it’s insane. I’m also looking for anyone who ever dealt with trenchless sewer relining because it seems like a more affordable way to go. 

It’s a 4bed 3bath single level house with slab foundation.

Following you on this as I’m dealing with the same in Miami. The trenchless repair seems like a great solution and it’s cheaper, however, I don’t know the pros/cons of both.

Do you mind if ask how much you paid for foundation. I need both foundation and plumbing. Haven’t gotten any quotes yet. Just one for plumbing. 36k for a 1200 sqft home. Ridiculous. I’m also in the Dfw area

I paid for 21k for foundation repair for my 2717 sf single story, but I had quotes from 20k to 45k for foundation repair.  I'm gonna have someone to give me a quote on trenchless sewer re-lining on Tuesday, and I'm probably gonna get more bids for trenchless bids since it could probably be the only way to go besides repiping the whole house which cost significantly more for cast iorn sewer lines. Also I only had 2 quotes from two different plumbing companies to repipe, one quoted me 72k with 8k discount, one says 40k.

Well the pro is cheaper and faster and cost way less than traditional repiping method. According to google, it should last at least 50 years. Not sure about cons because this is a flip, but I do wanna fix it right and pass the static test for foundation warranty.

The main "con" I've seen with trenchless sewer replacement options is that epoxy lining or pipe bursting methods will not solve a main sewer that has a 'belly' between the house and the city. If the existing pipe has settled in a low spot then it will need to be trenched. A plumber might try to sell trenchless options in this situation, and then that would make them the con ... zing, pun intended.

 Well, the thing is I can't find a honest plumber to do the quality work, and that's the main issue.

Get on the DFW Construction Facebook page and get quotes. You can get some illegals to do it all for 5-10k.
