Do drain pipes need to be replaced?

Yes, drain pipes often need to be replaced. While repairs can address many drain issues, there are situations where a complete replacement is necessary. This is often the case when: Pipes are old and corroded: Older pipes, especially cast iron, can deteriorate over time and lead to frequent clogs, leaks, or even collapses. Damage is extensive: If multiple sections of the pipe are damaged or there's a significant collapse, replacement may be more cost-effective than repeated repairs. Root intrusion: Tree roots can penetrate pipes, causing blockages and damage that's difficult to repair. Pipe material is outdated: Older pipe materials like clay or cast iron are prone to issues and may be replaced with more modern, durable options.

How do you take a shower when your bathtub won’t drain?

Before considering a replacement, try these DIY tips: Pour boiling water down the drain to dissolve soap scum and break up the clog. Use a cup plunger to plunge the shower. Pour half a cup each of baking soda and white vinegar down the drain, followed by boiling water after 15 minutes. Manually remove clogs with a drain-clearing tool.

How much does it cost to repair a broken drain pipe?

The cost to repair a broken drain pipe varies depending on the severity of the damage. While the average repair cost ranges from $250 to $1,500, the exact price will depend on specific factors. For an accurate estimate tailored to your situation, please contact our team.
