Sewer Line Repair in Haddon Heights, NJ
Nobody at the utility is responsible for the pipe between a house in Haddon Heights and the main. That run belongs to the property, and so does everything that happens to it. There are 3,163 occupied homes here, and across all the housing the median build year is 1945 — the best single clue to what the pipe is made of and how it tends to fail.
In short
A lateral under a typical Haddon Heights property is most likely vitrified clay, given housing dating from 1945. Clay fails where its short sections meet, so what a camera survey counts is affected joints rather than length of damage.

What went in the ground around 1945
A lateral laid in Haddon Heights in that period is most likely clay, with cast iron starting to appear on the house side of the boundary. Two materials on one run means two failure modes on the same lateral. More on clay laterals.
What a camera survey should settle here
Two materials on one run means two failure modes, and the survey has to say which section it is looking at. The full picture on clay laterals.
Haddon Heights is the 280th largest block of laterals we cover in New Jersey, carrying about 0.1% of the 3,313,875 homes on our NJ list, and its housing runs older than 96% of the NJ towns we route. Age concentration matters on a lateral: where a whole street went in one season, the failures arrive in one season too.
78% of homes here are owner-occupied — 15 points above the NJ figure. That matters more on a lateral than on almost any other pipe in the house: the run from the building to the main is the property owner’s to repair, and a landlord and a resident owner do not find that out at the same speed.
Median household income across Haddon Heights ZIP codes is $124,592 — the relevant figure for a job no insurer and no utility is going to split.

Before anyone digs in Haddon Heights, get the run on camera — and ask where the clay ends and the iron begins, because the two fail differently on one run. What the recording should show you.
