Sewer Line Repair and Replacement in Lawrenceville and Gwinnett County
When a sewer line breaks, fills with roots or settles into a low spot, 1st Place Plumbing repairs or replaces it for homeowners across Lawrenceville, Gwinnett County and metro Atlanta. We camera the line first, walk you through what we found, and put your options in writing: a spot repair, a trenchless replacement or a full replacement. Call or text (770) 800-7563 to schedule service.
What we can help with
- Spot repairs: We replace the broken, offset or collapsed section and leave the rest of the line alone.
- Trenchless replacement: Where the yard and the pipe allow it, the new line goes in with far less digging.
- Full replacement: When the camera shows the whole line failing, we replace it from the house to the street.
- Utility locates: We have the gas, power and cable lines marked before we dig.
- Cleanout installation: Homes without a cleanout get one, which makes every future service call easier.
- Camera check at the end: We run the camera through the finished line so you can see the repair.
What to expect
Every sewer repair starts with the camera. We find the problem, mark its depth and position on the ground, and quote the smallest fix that solves it. We protect your floors and your lawn while we work.
Trenchless replacement pulls a new line along the old path, so the yard stays largely intact where the route and the pipe allow it. Where we do have to dig, we check the finished line before we close the trench. You'll know how long the work will take and what it involves before any digging begins.

Frequently asked questions about sewer line repair
Do I need a full replacement?
Usually not. Most sewer problems are one bad section, and a spot repair takes care of it. A full replacement makes sense when the camera shows the whole line failing, and you'll see that footage before you decide.
How long is the yard dug up?
A spot repair is usually a one-day job. A full replacement takes longer, and we give you the schedule in writing before we start.
Who puts the lawn back?
We backfill and pack the trench and replace the sod wherever it can be saved. Landscaping past that point is a job for a landscaper.
