Nobody should replace a sewer line because a salesman said so. Every sewer job we quote starts with a camera run you watch with us: you see the roots, the belly, or the break, with the footage timestamped and yours to keep.
Many "replace the whole line" quotes turn out to be a two-foot root intrusion at a joint, fixable for a tenth of the price. When a line genuinely is done (collapsed clay, channeled cast iron), we quote both open-trench and trenchless (pipe burst / liner) options where the yard allows, with real numbers for each.
Older San Antonio neighborhoods (Alamo Heights, Monte Vista, downtown-adjacent) still run clay and Orangeburg lines from mid-century; tree roots find every joint. If that's your street, a camera inspection before escrow closes or before you re-landscape can save you five figures.

Common questions
Another company quoted me a full replacement. Should I believe them?
Maybe. But verify. Bring us the quote and we'll run our own camera, free. If they're right, we'll say so and you can still choose your contractor. Roughly a third of the replacement quotes we're asked to check only needed a spot repair.
What's trenchless and does my yard qualify?
Trenchless replaces or lines the pipe through small access pits instead of a full trench, saving driveways, mature trees, and landscaping. Most straight residential runs qualify; sharp bends and full collapses sometimes don't. The camera tells us.
Will insurance cover it?
Homeowner policies typically cover sudden damage a failed line causes, not the aged pipe itself. Some utilities and third parties sell service-line coverage that does. We document everything either way.
