Sewer Lines Under Pawleys Island Homes
Many Pawleys Island sewer lines run down a sloped yard to the street, often under a driveway, which is where trenchless repair saves the most.
What we run into in Pawleys Island
- Shifting clay soil. Soil movement is behind many sewer failures here: offset joints and bellies that appear after a dry summer or a wet spring.

Calls for trenchless sewer line repair in Pawleys Island, SC usually begin with one of the problems below, and the camera decides which fix fits.
Roots in the line
Cutting roots clears the pipe for a while; a liner removes the joints they get through, so they stay out.
Breaks and shifted joints
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.
Toilets gurgle or bubble
Air pushed back through the trap when other fixtures drain means the line is partly blocked downstream.
Backup in the lowest drain
Sewage rising in a floor drain, shower or basement fixture is the line telling you it cannot carry the flow.
Sewer smell outside
A smell near the cleanout or over the yard can mean a cracked pipe venting gas into the soil.
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 Pawleys Island
If the old pipe is intact enough for a liner to follow, lining is usually the least disruptive fix. Where it is crushed, Orangeburg or badly out of round, pipe bursting pulls a new HDPE line through the same route.
If you already have camera footage from a previous plumber or a home inspection, mention it when you call (833) 529-2616. It often settles lining versus bursting on the phone.
