Related questions
Is my homeowner's insurance going to cover this?
Standard policies usually don't. Some carriers offer 'service line' riders for $40–$80/year that cover sewer-line failures. Worth pricing before you need it.
What's the difference between line replacement and lining?
Lining (CIPP) inserts a resin liner that hardens inside your existing pipe — cheaper, less invasive, but only works if the old pipe is mostly intact. Replacement is required for collapsed or root-shattered lines.
