Around 35% of homes in Farmersville were built before 1960. Many still have the original cast iron, vitrified clay, or Orangeburg sewer lines. Those pipes were never built to last this long, and North Texas clay soil makes it worse.
The soil swells and shrinks with every rain cycle, cracking brittle pipes and creating bellies that trap water and sewage. If your home is more than 40 or 50 years old and you have never replaced the sewer line, it is likely at or past end of life.
Every job starts with a sewer camera inspection. We run a camera through the line and show you the footage so you see exactly what we see. If a sewer line repair would fix it, we tell you. If the line needs a full replacement, we explain the scope and cost before any work starts.
From there, we mark utilities, map the sewer line path, and excavate to the damaged section. We pull the old pipe, install new code-compliant pipe rated for North Texas soil, pressure-test the new line, confirm flow to the city connection, backfill, and clean up the yard.
A dramatic backup is not always the first warning. The signs often build slowly:
If you notice any of these, a sewer camera inspection will confirm whether the line can be repaired or needs a full replacement.
We camera every line before recommending work. You see the footage, and we walk you through what it means.
