Sewer lateral

Brampton Sewer Line Repair

A broken or root-packed sewer lateral will not get better by itself. Once a camera has found the fault, repair options range from fixing one joint to replacing the whole run to the street.

Repair choices

A single broken section can often be dug up and replaced with a short length of PVC and proper couplings. Where the pipe is generally sound but has cracked joints, a structural liner may be an option. Where the old clay pipe is broken in several places, full replacement is usually the honest answer, because patching one section just moves the problem to the next joint.

  1. Camera and locate the defect so excavation is as small as possible.
  2. Arrange locates for buried utilities before any digging.
  3. Excavate, repair or replace, and bed the new pipe properly.
  4. Test, backfill and restore the surface as agreed.

Permits and the Brampton side of the job

Sewer work on private property normally needs a plumbing permit and an inspection through the City of Brampton building division. Work on the public side of the property line is handled by the Region of Peel. Before anyone digs, Ontario One Call must mark buried gas, hydro and cable lines; that service is free to request.

Frozen ground makes excavation slower and harder to restore neatly. If the line can be kept running with clearing, some owners choose to wait for spring.
