Sewer Line Repair in Maine

Of the 55,974 occupied homes we cover in Maine, about 29,272 sit in towns whose typical home predates 1980 — laid before solvent-welded plastic became the default. We route calls in 12 towns here.

In short

What a lateral is made of decides how it fails. In Maine roughly 29,272 of the 55,974 homes covered are in pre-1980 towns, which is the line between solvent-welded plastic and everything that came before it.

TrenchPoint is a referral service, not a contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands. Every state page sets out who licenses plumbers there and where to check, so you can confirm before work begins. We do not perform excavation or repair, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call.

Checking a credential in Maine

Maine licenses are issued by the Maine Plumbers' Examining Board, Office of Professional and Occupational Regulation, which publishes a public search you can use before work begins.

Before anybody excavates.A camera survey is a different instruction from a repair, and the order matters. Tell us what the drain is doing and we will route you to somebody who covers your area. No charge to you, ever. Anything else the plumbing is doing can be raised on that call too.
