WHAT IS A LATERAL SEWER LINE?

Most homeowners have never heard of a lateral sewer line. A lateral sewer line is an underground pipe that connects your home’s plumbing system to the main sewer line of the city.  Because a lateral sewer line is located underground, it is susceptible to damage caused by shifting soil, freezing conditions, and/or tree roots growing underground through your property.
