Frontenac’s Sewer Lateral Program
A residential sewer lateral is the sewer pipe that runs from your home’s foundation to the sewer main. The sewer pipes inside your home can become clogged or crack due to tree roots or other issues. In much the same way, the main sewer drain that leads all the way to MSD can break or clog, and that can be expensive to fix (upwards of $15k). Thankfully, the community of Frontenac does have a Sewer Lateral Program to help offset the cost a broken sewer lateral line.
If you experience slow drains, foul odors, or low water pressure, you could have a clogged drain pipe. Knowing where the blockage is located is important, because if the clog is somewhere along the sewer lateral, the City of Frontenac’s Sewer Lateral Program may cover repair costs up to $3,400. As the homeowner, you are responsible for hiring a licensed plumber to perform a drain cleaning. If this fixes the problem, you do not need sewer lateral repair and the cost of the drain cleaning is the homeowner’s responsibility. If the drain cleaning does not fix the issue, you will need a camera drain inspection to determine the location of the problem. Maplewood Plumbing provides customers with a video of their camera drain inspection, which you will need to submit along with the Sewer Lateral Repair Application and three bids from licensed plumbers.
