Types of Sewer Repairs We Offer to Seattle Homeowners

We offer a full range of repair solutions to fix sewer pipes in the way that best suits your home, your budget, and the condition of your system. Here’s a look at some of the most common techniques we use.

Cured-In-Place Pipe (CIPP) Lining

This trenchless method allows us to rehabilitate your old pipe without digging. We insert a flexible liner soaked with resin into the damaged sewer line, then inflate and cure it in place. Once hardened, it forms a durable new pipe within the old one, restoring function and extending its life.

Pipe Bursting

Perfect for sewer line replacement when the old pipe is beyond repair. We break apart the damaged pipe while simultaneously pulling a new pipe into its place. It’s trenchless, efficient, and ideal for replacing long stretches of aging or collapsed line with minimal surface disruption.

Spot Repair

When only a small section of pipe is compromised, due to corrosion, cracks, or a localized blockage, we offer spot repairs. These precise, cost-effective fixes target the damaged area without the need for full sewer line replacement.

Open Cut Trench Repair

In cases where trenchless sewer repair isn’t viable, like when the pipe has collapsed entirely or lacks proper slope, we use open trenching. Our crew digs to access and replace the damaged section, ensuring a solid connection to your water line or city main.

Whether you need a permanent fix or a fast patch to buy some time, we tailor the right solution for your specific needs and sewer system setup.

Side Sewer Giving You Trouble? Fox Has Your Back!

Side sewers, those underground pipes connecting your home to the city main sewer, can cause big headaches when something goes wrong. Many Seattle homes have aging or outdated side sewers made of clay or concrete, which are prone to cracking, sagging, or invasion by tree roots. At Fox Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, we specialize in diagnosing and fixing these hidden issues quickly and effectively.

We start with a detailed inspection using video camera technology to pinpoint exactly where the problem lies. Whether it’s a break near your foundation or a blockage halfway down the line, we’ll find it and fix it. Our team uses trenchless sewer lines whenever possible to minimize the mess in your yard. We also handle connections to the city’s main and any permits required by Seattle or King County.

So if your side sewer is sending foul smells, flooding your yard, or slowing down your toilets and drains, don’t wait, Fox is ready to help.

Signs That You Need a Sewer Repair

Dark or discolored water backs up into tubs or toilets – If you ever have water reversing course and coming up through your plumbing, it means there’s a clog so severe it has reversed the course of your sewer water. This only happens in extreme circumstances so it’s quite likely you’ll need sewer repair if this is happening.
Water bubbles in your yard – If it seems as though there’s water coming up from under your yard, it’s likely because of a leak in your sewer line.
Extra bugs and animals attracted to your yard – If there’s a slight leak, then you may not see water coming up from under your yard, but the neighborhood bugs and animals will enjoy the additional nutrients in your soil.

Why Should You Consider Replacing Your Sewer Lines?

PVC pipes are strong and last for decades
The pipes connecting your appliances are easily fitted to new sewer lines
New sewer lines lead to fewer clogs and less wasted water
New sewer lines prevent leaks, which contaminate the soil

How To Tell You Need Sewer Cleaning

1. Water coming up through your plumbing – If there is dishwasher water coming up through your kitchen sink, or sewer water coming up through your plumbing appliances, call in our Seattle sewer cleaning pros pronto. This only ever happens if there’s a serious clog in your sewer line that is preventing the natural flow of water and only happens in terms of serious clogs.

2. Gurgle – If you hear a bubbling or gurgling sound coming from your unused plumbing appliance, it means that the air in your sewer line isn’t ventilating and there’s pressure on your line. This is a sign that you need sewer cleaning, but if you don’t act quickly, it could lead to a leak in your sewer line as well.

3. Foul odors come from drains – Another sign you should call in our Seattle sewer cleaning specialists is that your bathroom smells like a sewer. It means there’s a serious clog, and if left unattended, you might need sewer repair as a result.

4. Multiple slow drains – One slow drain just means you need drain cleaning, but if all your drains are slow then it’s likely your sewer that’s producing the sluggish draining. Our sewer cleaning team should be able to get your drains back on track in a timely manner so give us a call.
