Reliable Sewer Line Repair Services in Toronto
Water Pro offers comprehensive sewer line repairs tailored to meet the unique needs of both residential and commercial properties in Toronto and surrounding areas. Our team uses advanced video inspection tools and proven repair techniques to identify sewer line problems precisely and resolve them. This way, we ensure each sewer line we repair stays efficient for a long time.
Knowing the warning signs of sewer line issues allows you to contact our experienced plumbers early enough. However, delaying the repairs may turn a minor issue into extensive damage. This may necessitate complete sewer line replacement. Here are the signs you need sewer line repair or replacement services.
Sewer Smell
A persistent foul smell from drains often indicates a damaged or leaking sewer line that needs immediate professional attention. Let our licensed plumbers inspect your sewer pipe and clean it using hydro jetting to eliminate the odor.
Multiple Drain Blockages
When several drains clog at once, it signals a blockage deep within the sewer line. Our team will use advanced video inspection equipment to check your underground drains and sewer line. In addition to drain cleaning, we’ll inspect and repair your sewer line to fix the issue.
Wastewater Backing Up
Sewage or wastewater flowing back into sinks, toilets, or tubs indicates a serious sewer obstruction. Our professional plumbers will inspect your underground pipes and sewer line, identify the cause of the blockage, and remove it.
Slow Drains
Drains that empty noticeably more slowly could mean a buildup or tree root intrusion within the sewer line. Before you start planning a sewer replacement, our Toronto plumbers can inspect and fix your damaged sewer pipes at an affordable price.
Soggy Lawn Surface
Leaking sewer pipes can cause soggy lawn spots or sunken patches above the damaged area. Our team will check for a broken main sewer line and use the trenchless sewer line repair technique to fix the issue without extensive excavation.
Low Water Pressure
A damaged sewer line may affect overall plumbing system performance. This can lead to reduced water pressure. A professional drain and sewer line inspection can help identify the issue and repair the sewer pipes. In most cases, you don’t need costly sewer line replacement services.
Gurgling Sounds
Unusual gurgling noises from drains often suggest trapped air caused by sewer line blockages. Whether you have cast iron pipes, PVC pipes, or clay pipes, our team can quickly identify the cause of gurgling noise and address it.
Recurring Clogged Drains
Frequent clogs despite regular drain cleaning point to unresolved sewer line damage that requires expert repair. Depending on the extent of the damage, our team will determine whether hydrojetting or trenchless sewer repair will address the issue.

01Broken Sewer Lines
Your sewer line may not drain properly due to age-related deterioration, corrosion, shifting soil, improper installation, or damage from construction and natural events. A broken pipe allows sewage to seep into the surrounding soil. This could contaminate groundwater and could weaken your home’s foundation.
Our plumbers will locate and replace the affected section to restore your sewer line. We use advanced techniques such as trenchless pipe bursting or trenchless sewer replacement to install new PVC pipes without excavation.
02Sewer Pipe Corrosion
Older cast iron pipes are prone to corrosion, which can gradually weaken the pipes until they begin to leak. Corroded sections can restrict sewage flow, contaminate soil, and compromise the entire sewer line.
Our plumbers will perform a thorough camera inspection, targeted pipe replacement, or relining to reinforce the structure. Note that full replacement may not be necessary unless your old pipe is extensively corroded.
03Sewer Line Blockage
Blockages often result from grease buildup, tree roots, or accumulated debris. These obstructions slow drainage, cause sewage backups, and may result in sewage overflow. We use specialized tools and high-pressure water jetting to remove the clog without damaging the pipe material. Remember, routine maintenance can prevent clogging, which means fewer repairs.
04Bellied or Sagging Sewer Pipes
Soil erosion, poor compaction, or shifting ground can cause sections of sewer pipe to sag. These “bellies” trap wastewater and debris, which increases the likelihood of repeated sewer line clogs. We’ll identify low spots with camera inspections and fix them to ensure the entire sewer system is efficient.
05Leaking Sewer Joints
Aging seals or poor joint connections can allow sewage to escape or tree roots to enter the pipes. These leaks can weaken the surrounding soil and disrupt the sewage flow. Our team will seal or replace the compromised joints using durable materials and ensure proper alignment. This will create a watertight connection to prevent leaks and further structural damage within the system.
06Tree Root Intrusion
Tree roots naturally grow toward moisture. That’s why they often enter sewer lines through cracks or loose joints. Once inside, they block flow, fracture pipes, and trigger sewage backups. We use mechanical cutting tools and root removal techniques, followed by sealing or replacing the damaged pipe section. This eliminates the root intrusion and protects sewer lines from further damage.
07Age and Deterioration
Over decades, sewer lines can weaken from daily use, shifting soil, and exposure to environmental factors. This deterioration can cause cracks, leaks, and reduced flow efficiency. We assess the pipe’s condition with advanced inspection technology, then restore function through targeted repairs or pipe relining.
Instead of pipe repair, we may recommend installing a new sewer line if the existing one has deteriorated beyond repair.
What's the Cost of Sewer Line Repairs in Toronto?
The cost of repairing a sewer line depends on several factors, including the extent of the damage, the repair method, and the property’s location. On average, the cost of sewer line repairs ranges from $1,500 to $4,000, with the price varying based on whether traditional methods or trenchless repair options are used.
Trenchless repairs, such as pipe relining or trenchless pipe bursting, usually cost between $3,000 and $6,000. Though trenchless sewer line repairs are costly, they are less invasive and often save money in the long term by reducing restoration work and labour costs.
Emergency repairs, such as those caused by severe blockages or burst pipes, tend to cost more due to urgency and potential structural damage. These services can range from CAD $2,500 to $5,000. Scheduled maintenance or non-urgent repairs are typically more affordable, averaging CAD $1,000 to $3,000. Here’s a breakdown of Sewer line repairs in the GTA.
| Type of Repair | Typical Cost Range (CAD) |
| Traditional Excavation Repair | $1,500 – $4,000 |
| Trenchless Repair (Relining / Pipe Bursting) | $3,000 – $6,000 |
| Emergency Repairs | $2,500 – $5,000 |
| Scheduled Repairs / Maintenance | $1,000 – $3,000 |

FAQs
What’s the cost of sewer line replacement – Toronto?
The cost of a sewer line depends on factors such as pipe length, location, repair method, and extent of the damage. Therefore, it’s best to request a detailed quote from Water Pro for accurate pricing based on your property’s specific drain pipes and sewer line.
How do you know if a sewer line is broken?
Warning signs of a broken sewer line include sewage backups, slow drains, foul odors, lawn depressions, and recurring drain clogs. The Water Pro team conducts thorough video camera inspections to pinpoint the exact damaged section and cause of the problem before recommending an effective repair solution.
How long will it take to repair a damaged sewer line?
Plumbing repair time varies based on the scope of work, location, and method used. Simple repairs may take a few hours, while complex older sewer line replacements could require several days. Water Pro provides timelines after assessing each project’s specific requirements.
How often should a sewer line be inspected?
Professional sewer line and drain inspections are recommended when you notice signs such as foul smells, slow drainage, or wastewater backups. Water Pro also encourages routine checks even without signs of damage to detect hidden issues early and prevent costly emergency repairs in the future.
Can you prevent tree roots from damaging a sewer line?
Yes. Regular inspections can help detect root intrusion before it causes serious damage to your sewer pipes. Installing root barriers and planting trees with non-invasive roots away from sewer lines are also effective measures to protect your system in the long term.
Is trenchless sewer repair worth it?
Yes. Trenchless repair minimizes damage to landscaping, reduces pipe restoration costs, and can often be completed faster than traditional excavation. While the upfront cost may be higher, trenchless repairs offer long-term savings and durable, lasting results.
Does a homeowner’s insurance policy cover sewer line repairs?
Most standard policies exclude sewer line repairs unless you have specific add-on coverage. It’s important to review your insurance policy carefully or contact your provider to confirm whether sewer damage is included in your plan.
