Sewer Lines Under Skippack Homes
Winter freezes and wet springs in Skippack keep the ground moving, and older sewer joints can shift and open over time.
What we run into in Skippack
- Tree roots. Mature trees send roots toward the warm, damp air leaking from a cracked joint. Once inside, they grow into a mat that catches everything.
- Aging pipe. In older Skippack neighborhoods, sewer laterals are often the original clay or cast iron, laid in short sections with a joint every few feet.

Call (833) 529-2616Sewer Line Failures We See Around Skippack
Calls for trenchless sewer line repair in Skippack, PA 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.
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.
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 Skippack
The camera settles it. Sound but leaking pipe gets lined; broken-down pipe gets burst; a single bad spot gets a patch liner. A sag that holds water is the one case where a short dig may be needed.
Still unsure which way your line will go? Call (833) 529-2616 with the age of the house and what the drains are doing. You will hear what a camera inspection is likely to show before anyone comes out.

Skippack Homes by the Numbers
Only about 12% of homes in Skippack were built before 1950, so most laterals here are later materials, which tend to fail at joints and connections or from roots and ground movement rather than from old clay. Another 13% 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 1992. About 88% of homes are single-family and 90% are owner-occupied; the lateral from the building to the city connection is generally the owner's responsibility, so the repair-or-replace decision is usually theirs.
Skippack covers about 2.5 square miles and holds roughly 4,006 residents, around 1,590 per square mile: spread out, with mostly detached homes on larger lots and longer runs between fixtures and the street. It is number 176 by population of the 688 Pennsylvania places on our service list.
