Sewer Lines Under Temple Homes
Winter freezes and wet springs in Temple keep the ground moving, and older sewer joints can shift and open over time.
What we run into in Temple
- 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 Temple 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 Temple
Calls for trenchless sewer line repair in Temple, 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.
Sewer smell outside
A smell near the cleanout or over the yard can mean a cracked pipe venting gas into the soil.
Soggy or extra-green strip
A wet patch or a stripe of greener grass along the line's path is often a leak feeding the lawn.
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.

Line It or Burst It? Deciding in Temple
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.
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.

Temple Homes by the Numbers
About 43% of homes in Temple were built before 1950, when sewer laterals were commonly clay tile or cast iron, materials that crack, separate at the joints and let roots in as they age. Homes from 1950 to 1979 make up about 51% of the stock, an era with mixed lateral materials, and the median year built across Temple is 1953. About 59% of homes are single-family and 63% 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.
With about 2,335 residents on roughly 0.3 square miles (near 6,868 per square mile), Temple is dense, with many repairs happening in shared buildings, basements and utility closets. It is number 267 by population of the 688 Pennsylvania places on our service list.

Trenchless Sewer Line Repair in Temple, PA: FAQs
Didn't see your question?
Ring us. A sewer technician picks up, and quoting over the phone costs nothing.
Call (833) 529-2616How much does trenchless sewer line repair in Temple, PA cost?
Most lines cost an estimated $4,000 to $15,000 to line or burst, or about $80 to $250 per foot. A spot repair is estimated at $1,500 to $4,000, and the camera inspection at $150 to $500. Whatever the method, the price is agreed in writing before work begins.
Who is responsible for the sewer line from the house to the street?
In most cities the homeowner owns the lateral from the house to the city main or the property line. Rules vary by city, so the boundary is confirmed for your address.
What are the disadvantages of trenchless pipe lining?
Lining cannot pass a full collapse or lift a sagging section, and it takes a little off the inside diameter. Bursting or a targeted dig handles those.
What are the signs of a broken sewer line?
Several drains slowing at once, gurgling toilets, backups in the lowest drain, sewer smell outdoors, a soggy or extra-green strip in the yard, and clogs that return after snaking.
