What is a Sewer/Septic Repair Plan?

Your sewer or septic line may weaken and break over time due to damage caused by normal wear and tear, including aging and ground shifting. Because this line is buried underground on your property and not typically inspected, a failure is almost impossible to predict. Without this additional coverage, you could be faced with thousands of dollars in out-of-pocket expenses if a break occurs and replacement is needed. With exterior sewer and septic line protection, homeowners can avoid paying for covered repairs to the line that carries wastewater away from their home. This protection covers various types of pipe material, regardless of how old it is.
