Sewer Lines Under Frankfort Homes
In older Frankfort neighborhoods, the original clay or cast iron line is often 60 years old or more.
What we run into in Frankfort
- Aging pipe. In older Frankfort neighborhoods, sewer laterals are often the original clay or cast iron, laid in short sections with a joint every few feet.
- Basement exits. Many homes here have basements, so the sewer line leaves below the floor and runs deep under the yard. A long, deep trench is exactly what trenchless avoids.
- Deep frost. Freeze-thaw cycles move the soil around older pipe and open joints. Trenchless repair can go ahead without a long frozen trench.

Below are the faults behind most jobs for trenchless sewer line repair in Frankfort, IN, from root mats to flattened fiber pipe.
Roots in the line
Roots enter through cracked or loose joints and grow into a mat. They are cut out, then lining seals the joints.
Cracked or offset pipe
Cracks, holes and joints that have slipped out of line leak and snag waste. Lining covers them with new pipe.
Corroded or collapsing pipe
Cast iron scales and rots from inside, and Orangeburg flattens. Cast iron is often lined; Orangeburg is usually burst.
A dip in the yard or drive
Soil washing into a broken pipe can leave a depression or a small sinkhole above it.
Failed sewer scope at sale
Home inspections now often include a camera pass, and a bad report can stall a sale until the line is fixed.
Several drains slow at once
One slow sink is a local clog. Tubs, toilets and sinks slowing together point to the main line.

Line It or Burst It? Deciding in Frankfort
Lining suits a pipe that still holds its shape: cracks, root entry, corrosion and small offsets. Bursting suits a pipe that is collapsed, flattened or too small, because it replaces the line rather than coating it.

Frankfort Homes by the Numbers
A large share of Frankfort housing (about 46%) predates 1950, and laterals from that era were often clay or cast iron, which is why lining and bursting come up so often here. Another 36% were built between 1950 and 1979, a stretch when cast iron, clay and fiber (Orangeburg) laterals were all still in use, and the median home overall dates from 1953. With roughly 77% single-family homes and 59% owner-occupied, most Frankfort sewer laterals belong to the property owner, who decides whether to line, burst or patch.
With about 15,536 residents on roughly 8.1 square miles (near 1,930 per square mile), Frankfort is spread out, with mostly detached homes on larger lots and longer runs between fixtures and the street. It is number 47 by population of the 292 Indiana places on our service list.
