What we see in New Westminster.
| Very old sewer lines | Some homes here still drain through pipe laid a century ago. Clearing it works for a while. A camera tells you how long it has left. |
|---|---|
| Old cast iron inside the house | Cast iron stacks and drains scale up on the inside until a 4-inch pipe has a 2-inch opening. Cable cleaning helps, and jetting helps more. |
| Apartments and strata buildings | Uptown and Downtown are full of them. A shared stack means one blockage affects many suites, and access has to be arranged with the building. |
Every clog, with its price.
Regular hours are 9 to 5, Monday to Friday. Outside those hours, every price is double. Each price covers up to 2 hours on site.

Who looks after the sewer line in New Westminster
New Westminster treats work on a property's sewer and water services separately from ordinary plumbing. Replacing a sanitary sewer line or a large section of drain tile can need a services permit and inspections.
