Need to replace my main sewer line, any suggestions on companies?

I had to replace my line about 5 years ago, same problem. I used ARS. They did a trenchless repair. Dig two holes, one at the house and the other at the main in the street. They have a device that they pull throught the old line. It breaks the old tile line and pulls in a new seamless line. There was no damage to the lawn or anything in between the holes. The distance was about the same as yours, cost was about $7000.

If the pipe is not offset and it's just roots, you really should talk to somebody about lining it or pulling poly pipe through it.

The line still has to be cleared for the lining process

Not sure if the roots have to be cleared first or not. They didn't clear mine.

I think I might try the hydro jet before I replace the whole line. See if I get lucky.

My experience; rooted line with whatever method works. Then cut down the dang tree. Haven't had a problem since. (knock on wood) Been ~ 17 years or so.

Don't forget to drop some root killer on the stump.

My parents had the hydrojet done last year. It works great. Very expensive equipment. Also very impressive on how well it clears roots.

Im going to go the hydrojet route, But i'm also going to replace the line from my house to the sidewalk and put outdoor cleanouts in. Does any one have an excavator they rent out?
