Sewer Line Repair in Wenonah, NJ
In Wenonah the sewer lateral — the run from the house to the public main — belongs to whoever owns the property, not to the utility. There are 3,035 occupied homes here, and across all the housing the median build year is 1963 — the best single clue to what the pipe is made of and how it tends to fail.
In short
Orangeburg cannot be ruled out by date in Wenonah, where housing typically dates from 1963 and the plumbing code still permitted bituminized fiber. What settles it is whether the pipe still holds a round section.

What went in the ground around 1963
A lateral laid in Wenonah in that period is most likely Orangeburg or cast iron, with clay still going in at some depths. Which of the three you have is not something the build year can settle on its own. More on Orangeburg pipe.
What a camera survey should settle here
Three materials were going in the ground at once in these years, so the survey is identifying the pipe before it diagnoses anything. The full picture on Orangeburg pipe.
Wenonah is the 287th 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 62% 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.
