A properly installed sewer line is one of the most critical components of your home’s plumbing system.
It carries all wastewater safely away from your property and into the municipal sewer system.
When sewer lines are installed incorrectly—or when aging, damaged, or outdated lines are replaced improperly—homeowners can face recurring backups, foul odors, foundation damage, and costly repairs.
Plumbera provides professional, code-compliant sewer line installation services in Toronto and across the GTA.
Whether you are building a new home, converting from septic to city sewer, adding plumbing fixtures, or replacing a failing underground sewer pipe,
our licensed plumbers deliver durable installations designed for long-term performance.

Sewer line installation involves installing the main underground pipe that connects your home’s internal drain system to the municipal sewer.
This line handles every discharge from toilets, sinks, showers, floor drains, laundry, and appliances.
Because the sewer line operates entirely by gravity, correct slope, depth, alignment, and material selection are absolutely essential.
Unlike water supply lines, sewer pipes must be installed with precision to ensure waste moves efficiently without settling in the pipe.
Even small errors in slope or joint alignment can lead to chronic clogs, root intrusion, or premature pipe failure.
That’s why professional sewer line installation is not just recommended—it’s essential.
Sewer line installation may be required in a wide range of situations, including both new construction and existing homes.
Common scenarios include:
In Toronto, many older homes still rely on aging sewer connections that no longer meet modern standards.
Sewer line installation or replacement ensures your plumbing system is safe, reliable, and compliant with current building codes.
Sewer line installation is not an area where shortcuts should ever be taken.
Improper installation can result in issues that are difficult and expensive to correct once the pipe is buried.
A correctly installed sewer line:
At Plumbera, every sewer line installation is approached as a long-term infrastructure investment—not just a plumbing task.
Every project begins with a detailed assessment of the property.
We identify the municipal connection point, evaluate depth requirements, confirm slope calculations, and determine the most efficient routing for the sewer line.
Existing utilities, landscaping, and structural considerations are factored into the plan.
Sewer line installations in Toronto typically require permits and inspections.
Plumbera ensures all work complies with the Ontario Building Code and municipal bylaws.

Soil conditions are evaluated to ensure long-term stability.

Yes. Most sewer line installations in Toronto require permits and inspections to ensure compliance with the Ontario Building Code and municipal standards. Permits confirm correct slope, depth, materials, and connection methods. Working without permits can result in fines, forced removal, or issues when selling the property.
Depth depends on the frost line, building elevation, and municipal connection point. In Toronto, sewer lines are typically installed deep enough to prevent freezing while maintaining proper gravity flow. Each installation is calculated individually to ensure reliable drainage year-round.
Modern sewer lines are most commonly installed using PVC or SDR pipe due to their corrosion resistance, smooth interior, and long lifespan. These materials outperform older clay or Orangeburg pipes and significantly reduce the risk of root intrusion and cracking.
Most sewer line installation projects take between one and three days, depending on excavation requirements, inspections, and property conditions. Larger or more complex projects may take longer, especially when city inspections are involved.
Yes. Renovation projects—especially basement finishing or plumbing upgrades—are ideal times to install or upgrade sewer lines. Open walls and floors allow for more efficient routing and reduce overall disruption.
Improper installation can cause recurring backups, sewer odors, pipe settling, and premature failure. These issues are expensive to fix once the pipe is buried. Professional installation prevents these risks by ensuring correct slope, secure joints, and proper backfill.
Yes. A properly installed, modern sewer line is a major infrastructure upgrade. It improves reliability, reduces maintenance risk, and is attractive to buyers—especially in older Toronto neighborhoods where sewer issues are common.
