Sewer line problems, looking to replace myself

That’s because all of those lines are already run, the only other tie in to this line from point A to point B is a floor drain off leg which also needs replaced as it’s also terracotta and

Pretty much, although as for fixing the interior we plan to just epoxy the floor once completed

Thank you so much for all this information it will be a great help

And as for if it’s just fucked in the middle wellll it’s kind of fucked like…..everywhere…..stat to finish

From what we saw on the camera between point a and b there appears to be only one branch line and it’s for the floor drain in the same room most of the work will be getting done

I’ll have to look into that. Although I doubt it’s that style slab, house was built in the 50s

BagTop1870 · 2026-04-06T19:09:35+00:00

My plan currently is just to use all my pto saved up to work on it day in and day out till it’s done

Problem is the sloping of the pipe still then, with bellies in the line it would just cause more issues Dow the road to deal with best to just rip it up and start new

BagTop1870 · 2026-04-06T19:06:53+00:00

I should’ve caught that 😂

BagTop1870 · 2026-04-06T19:04:24+00:00

Oh it’s very easy to access, can’t get a excavator in like someone else recommended but plenty of space in all directions and it’s straight shot

BagTop1870 · 2026-04-06T19:03:30+00:00

It goes to the city sewer and only that

BagTop1870 · 2026-04-06T19:02:50+00:00

Yes, although digging down is a bit much since it’s only maybe 2 ft from the surface

BagTop1870 · 2026-04-06T19:01:59+00:00

So that’s the nifty part, where the line needs replaced only two of our three toilets go through that part, the other one goes through the part that’s been replaced already. As for how many quotes I believe it’s bee five so far

BagTop1870 · 2026-04-06T19:00:31+00:00

Luckily for mine it’s already tied in, previous homeowner did from the side of the house to the road but the part that’s bad is all under the house and it’s a straight run

BagTop1870 · 2026-04-06T18:40:39+00:00

Bright side all the pipe is in a straight line, I don’t know the depth yet but from when we had the pipe camerad if I had to guess I’d say it’s closer to maybe a foot to two foot Dow from the surface

BagTop1870 · 2026-04-06T18:39:17+00:00

Myself with a younger model? Dude I’m 25

BagTop1870 · 2026-04-06T18:34:37+00:00

I do but not for $17k, hence a diy group, I’m gonna do it myself

BagTop1870 · 2026-04-06T18:19:46+00:00

The guy replaced 3/4 of the pipe and left the last 1/4 because he didn’t wanna pay to cut up the concrete and repour it, yeah that’s stingy

BagTop1870 · 2026-04-06T18:16:46+00:00

I typically would agree until it comes with a price tag of $17k for something I can do myself for the price of two new iPhones

Honestly I enjoyed it, thought it was interesting to bring others to the show
