Sewer Lines Under New Canaan Homes
Mature maples and oaks line many New Canaan streets, and their roots have had decades to work into old sewer joints.
What we run into in New Canaan
- Aging pipe. Cast iron scales and corrodes from the inside, clay cracks at the joints, and Orangeburg slowly flattens. All three turn up on camera here.
- Basement exits. With a basement, the main cleanout is often indoors, and it can serve as the access point for a liner. The yard stays mostly untouched.
- Deep frost. Winter frost reaches well into the ground, which makes winter excavation slow. Lining and bursting need only small access points.

Call (833) 529-2616Sewer Line Failures We See Around New Canaan
These are the failures behind most calls for trenchless sewer line repair in New Canaan, CT. A camera pass usually shows which one you have.

Root intrusion at the joints
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
Ground movement opens joints and cracks rigid pipe. Most of it can be lined; a badly offset joint may be burst.

Worn-out cast iron and Orangeburg
Old pipe that is scaling, flaking or losing its round shape is relined if it still holds its form, or replaced by bursting.
Several drains slow at once
One slow sink is a local clog. Tubs, toilets and sinks slowing together point to the main line.
Toilets gurgle or bubble
Air pushed back through the trap when other fixtures drain means the line is partly blocked downstream.
Clogs that keep coming back
If the line needs snaking every few months, something in the pipe, usually roots or a break, is catching waste.
Can't tell which one you have? Describe what the drains are doing, and the likely cause comes back on the call.

Line It or Burst It? Deciding in New Canaan
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.
