replace existing line

Plumbing estimating unit cost for repair or replacement of an existing drain line to a sewer or septic tank connection.

Lineal foot.

We figure an unskilled worker can remove about 50 feet of plumbing line per hour, and that an skilled worker can install about 20 feet of new plumbing per hour.

This price only includes placement of the sewer pipe in an existing trench. It does not include any excavation or backfilling costs, nor the cost of securing deep trenches to OSHA standards. The removal cost is for old PVC line-- for cast iron you'll need some extra time.

One foot of schedule 40 PVC pipe, plus 1 connector for every 6 feet of line.

$7.69 per lineal foot

No suggested quantity. Enter the length of sewer pipe that needs replacing.

Based on crew timing and/or job costing data from a few plumbing installations done by Turtle Creek Construction.
