Journeyman Plumber to Test and Repair Sewer Lateral

Emeryville CA

Description

I am looking for a journeyman plumber to identify any leaks in my sewer lateral. The lateral is made of 4” ABS pipe and has two 2” branches. It is 15 years old. It is about 100’ long on a flat lot and ranges from 2’ deep at its terminus to 7’ deep at its connection to the public sewer. There are 5 cleanouts including the one at the street. You can either perform a water or an air test although an air test would be easier. You should know how to float a Cherne test ball and use a snake with a camera. I’d like to test the entire lateral first and if we do see a leak to test each section to identify where the leak is located. It would be best if you had your own equipment but I can buy or rent if necessary. Repairing the lateral could be a second part of the project depending on whether a leak is found and how significant it is.
