Economy Plumbing is the Best!!
About 70% of the sewer pipes that run from the street into the homes in San Francisco are over 100 years old and are made of clay. Economy Plumbing has been in business in San Francisco for over 30 years, so they have replaced a ton of old sewer pipes in their time.
I hired Economy Plumbing because our neighbor's sewer pipe backed up and flooded part of their downstairs and subsequently, they hired the company to replace their 100+ year-old broken clay sewer pipe.
Daniel Griffin who is president of the company was extremely professional. He recommended that I have my sewer pipe scoped with a small camera to find out if it was modern or original (about $200). A few days later, they looked scoped the pipe and could see that the pipe was badly broken, so I hired Economy Plumbing on the spot to replace the my old sewer pipe asap.
A sewer line replacement, takes a few days to do. They send out a small team that includes a plumber/manager and guys to do the dirty work. They take out a section of the sidewalk, dig down to the old pipe, replace the old pipe with a new one and have a city inspector come out to sign off on the work. The total amount of time you are without the use of your toilet is only a few hours.
Plumbing issues are never any fun to deal with, but I am very glad I did this before and not after my home had flooded too. The team at Economy Plumbing are total pros!
