WHEN DOES THE MUNICIPALITY GET INVOLVED?
In most cases, sewer line repairs on private property do not require involvement from the municipality. However, if the issue is on the municipal side, such as a problem with the main sewer line or sewer system, the municipality may need to get involved.
If you are unsure whether the issue is on the municipal side or your property, it’s best to contact a professional plumbing company like Bamboo Plumbing. We can conduct a comprehensive inspection of your sewer line and determine the cause and location of the problem. If it is determined that the issue is on the municipal side, we can work with the municipality to ensure that the problem is addressed promptly and efficiently.
It’s important to note that homeowners and business owners are responsible for maintaining their sewer lines until they connect to the main sewer line. If the problem is on the private side, then it’s the responsibility of the property owner to hire a professional plumbing company like Bamboo Plumbing to repair or replace the damaged sewer line. We also offer trenchless sewer line repair!
