The repair of an old sewer main or the installation of a new one can end many plumbing emergencies. This is most definitely not a job for someone who isn’t a professional. Not only will a plumber be necessary, but a plumbing contractor should be contacted as well. Most locations require a permit for anyone to do any installation work on a sewer main, and sometimes a final inspection. Fortunately, most areas have a number of plumbers and plumbing contractors available whenever there is a problem involving the sewer mains.

Having the sewer main inspected from time to time can prevent a lot of problems and save a lot of money in the end.
