We compared 19 sewer line repair services in San Antonio on Google Maps · 5 listed · How we rank

A broken sewer line usually means digging, and the price of that dig depends heavily on who you call. The sewer line repair services in San Antonio below hold more than 3,000 Google reviews between them, from Roto-Rooter with more than 1,100 to Juan's Plumbing Services with more than 230, and all are listed as plumbers first, so it pays to check which ones have actually replaced sewer lines.

Short answer: Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Water Cleanup has the largest review base, rated 4.8 from more than 1,100 Google reviews, but its reviews describe leaks, toilets and water heaters. For sewer work specifically, reviewers of Longoria Plumbing (5.0, more than 290 reviews) describe PVC sewer drain replacement and Juan's Plumbing Services (4.9, more than 230 reviews) a 61-foot sewer line replacement. No prices are quoted here, so get a written estimate that names the pipe material.

How the scores work

The scorecards use public Google data on the date shown. Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated the business, ranked against other San Antonio plumbers. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.8 from over a thousand people carries more weight than a 5.0 from a few hundred. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews.

What changes the price of a sewer line repair in San Antonio

We couldn’t source reliable San Antonio price ranges, so this page quotes none. Sewer work varies with the length of line, how deep it is, whether the plumber can repair a section or has to replace it, and whether digging or tunneling under a slab is needed. Ask for an estimate that names the pipe material, the footage and the restoration work included.

Finding a sewer plumber near you

These plumbers list San Antonio addresses on W Commerce St, Whirlwind Dr, Isom Rd and Naco Perrin Blvd, and Juan’s Plumbing Services lists no street address. Juan’s Plumbing Services’ site names Helotes, Castle Hills, Alamo Heights and Boerne among its areas, and Longoria Plumbing’s site names Helotes and Leon Valley. Searching for sewer line repair near me? Call and confirm your address is covered.

Questions to ask about sewer line work

  • Will you camera-inspect the line first, and can I see the footage?
  • Is this a repair of one section or a full replacement, and which pipe material is quoted?
  • Does the estimate include digging or tunneling and restoring the area afterward?
  • How many feet of line does the quote cover?
  • Do you offer payment options for larger jobs?

Frequently asked questions

Which San Antonio plumbers have sewer line jobs in their reviews?

A Longoria Plumbing reviewer had cast iron drains replaced with PVC sewer lines, a Juan’s Plumbing Services reviewer had 61 feet of broken sewer line replaced, and a Reliant Plumbing reviewer had a main sewer line replaced. Ambition Plumbing’s site lists sewer repair, but its reviews cover other plumbing jobs.

Does a sewer line replacement mean digging up the yard?

Sometimes. A Longoria Plumbing reviewer describes tunneling to reach each bathroom’s drain with minimal disruption, and another describes digging through tree roots more than three feet deep. Juan’s Plumbing Services lists under-slab tunneling on its site. Ask each plumber how it plans to reach the pipe.

Can I pay for a sewer repair over time?

Roto-Rooter’s site mentions special financing options, and a Reliant Plumbing reviewer says staff walked them through monthly payment options. Ask each plumber what’s available and the terms.

Will a plumber come outside normal hours for a sewer emergency?

Roto-Rooter’s site advertises 24/7 service with no extra charge for nights, weekends or holidays, and a Reliant Plumbing customer got a technician late at night. Ask any company about its after-hours availability and fees.

Where to start

For a straightforward emergency call, Roto-Rooter has the largest review base, but its reviews don’t show sewer work. For an actual sewer line replacement, start with Longoria Plumbing and Juan’s Plumbing Services, whose reviews describe it, and ask Reliant Plumbing for sewer references as well. Get the footage, pipe material and restoration in writing.
