What Is a New Sewer Installation?
A new sewer installation is when we build a fresh sewer line that connects your home or building to the city sewer system.
You need this service if:
You’re building a new house
You’re adding an ADU
You’re converting a garage
You’re replacing an old or broken sewer line
The city told you to install a new lateral
Your old sewer fails pressure tests
Many Bay Area homes are older, and some still use clay or cast-iron pipes. These break, shift, crack, or fill with roots. When they’re too damaged to repair, a new sewer line is the best fix.
Where We Install New Sewer Lines
We do new sewer installations in:
Hayward (Fairview, Burbank, Jackson Triangle)
Oakland (Fruitvale, Rockridge, Eastmont, Temescal)
Berkeley (North Berkeley, Central Berkeley, Elmwood)
Alameda
San Leandro
Castro Valley
Richmond & El Cerrito
Emeryville
These areas have older pipes and tougher soil, so a clean, new system makes a huge difference.
Why Homeowners Need a New Sewer Line
People call us for new sewer lines when:
Their old pipe collapsed
A home inspection failed
Tree roots broke through the pipe
They’re adding a new bathroom or building an ADU
The city sent a code notice
The sewer fails pressure testing
We see these issues a lot in older neighborhoods like North Berkeley, San Leandro, and Richmond, where many homes were built before the 1960s.
One homeowner in Berkeley had roots the size of a baseball inside their pipe. We showed them the camera footage, and they said, “That thing was living rent-free in there.”
A brand-new sewer line solved it.
Our New Sewer Installation Process
We keep it simple so you know what’s happening every step of the way.
1. Planning & Permits
The Bay Area has strict sewer rules. Each city has its own code.
We take care of:
City permits
Utility checks
Inspection scheduling
Mapping out the pipe path
You don’t need to call anyone or deal with paperwork. We handle everything.
2. Digging or Trenchless Access
Depending on your home, we use:
Open trenching for full replacements
Trenchless installation when we want less digging
We explain both options in plain words so you can pick what works best.
3. Installing the New Pipe
We install:
Strong, long-lasting sewer pipe
Proper slope so water flows right
Cleanouts for easy future maintenance
We don’t cut corners. A good sewer line should last decades.
4. Testing
We run:
Flow tests
Camera checks
City pressure tests (if required)
You get to see the inside of your new pipe on camera. People love this part because it gives peace of mind.
5. Final Backfill & Clean-Up
We put everything back neatly.
No mess left behind.
Types of Sewer Installation We Offer
✔ ADU Sewer Installation
ADUs are huge in the Bay Area. We connect new units to the main sewer so they pass city rules.
✔ Full Home Sewer Replacement
Old clay and cast iron pipes fail a lot. A full replacement keeps your home working for years.
✔ Commercial Sewer Installation
Small shops and restaurants in Oakland, Emeryville, and Alameda often need larger lines or updated systems.
✔ Trenchless New Sewer Lines
When possible, we use trenchless to avoid tearing up your yard or driveway.
Common Problems New Sewer Lines Fix
A new sewer installation solves:
Constant sewer backups
Cracked or broken pipes
Tree root damage
Low spots in the pipe
Sewage smells outside
Failed home inspections
Flooding during rain
Clay pipe collapse
Uneven or flat sewer slope
If you’ve been dealing with repeat clogs from multiple drains, that’s usually a sign the whole line is failing.
Real Story From a Local Job
A couple in Alameda built a backyard studio for their parents. Their plumber told them they needed a whole new sewer connection. They were stressed about permits and city rules.
We stepped in, handled the paperwork, installed a new sewer line, got it passed by the city, and had the studio ready in a week.
They told us:
“You made the hardest part feel simple.”
That’s our goal with every job.
How Much Does a New Sewer Installation Cost?
No two homes are the same, but pricing depends on:
How long the sewer line is
How deep we need to dig
If we use trenchless or open trench
City permit costs
Soil type and obstacles
If concrete or landscaping needs removal
We always show the price before we start and explain the options in plain language.
