We Are Open - New Coronavirus Safety Procedure
Harris Plumbing, Heating, Air, & Electric has been in the business of serving New Jersey, Delaware, and Pennsylvania for decades! This experience gives us an advantage when servicing aging sewer lines, beautiful historic homes, and communities. With the aging infrastructure in northeastern states, your home is more likely to need sewer line repair or replacement.
Sewer Line Replacement
While a burst pipe or waste odor are obvious signs you need sewer line repair or a replacement, hidden signs that might not be immediately apparent include high water bills, leaks, and sewage backups, which are sometimes confused with stubborn drain clogs.
Sewer replacement options include:
- Trench sewer replacement: A trench sewer replacement service requires digging/excavating and can take several days to dig up the landscape and access your older, buried pipes.
- Trenchless sewer replacement: Trenchless or no-dig sewer replacement keeps your lawn intact. Pipelining or pipe bursting is used to access specific sewer pipe sections that need replacing.
Our experienced technicians understand local permits and receive ongoing training. Delivering easy payment terms and top-notch, five-star service every time, we provide quality service and fast response times – satisfaction guaranteed!

Sewer Line Materials
Choosing sewer pipe materials can vary by home build, local plumbing codes, property logistics, and price. Pipes made of clay, steel, or concrete can last 45 to 50 years, while copper, PVC, and iron will last 75 to 100 years.
Common sewer line materials include:
- PVC: The most cost-efficient and root-resistant material in homes built after the 1970s, it is lightweight and easy to cut. The pressure rating is 100 psi for a 4-inch pipe.
- ABS: Like PVC, it resists corrosion and has a smooth interior for transporting waste matter.
- Clay: Still used today, it’s environmentally friendly, heavy, and extremely resistant to chemical degradation. However, the porous material makes it vulnerable to tree roots.
- Cast-iron: Common in older homes, it is heavy, non-flammable, and has over 350 psi for a 4-inch pipe making it less prone to breakage, but it can corrode/oxidize.

Frequently asked questions
PVC and ABS are recommended for outdoor sewer pipe installation, but ABS is more durable. PVC can last 100 years, is lightweight, and is ideal for indoor plumbing.
Trenchless replacements like relining or pipe bursting can take one to two days. Traditional trench replacements can take several days, depending on the sewer line depth, excavation obstacles, and level of damage.
