Pride Plumbing was called out for a water leak in the yard. Upon digging down to the leaking section of drainpipe, we found that it was Orangeburg pipe connected to a grease trap. We dug up the grease trap so we could remove its lid and stub-in a new 4-inch PVC pipe, connecting onto the existing Orangeburg pipe with a new Fernco coupling. We then sealed where the new pipe exited the grease trap with hydraulic cement and tested for leaks and proper drainage. Lastly, we covered up the new pipe and grease trap. We also provided a cost estimate to trench a ditch from the town sewer tap to the home to expose and replace the Orangeburg main outside sewer septic drain line with new PVC piping and fittings along with installing proper cleanouts and fittings per code.
