Sewer Line Repair in Heath Springs, SC
In Heath Springs the sewer lateral — the run from the house to the public main — belongs to whoever owns the property, not to the utility. There are 1,808 occupied homes here, and across all the housing the median build year is 1990 — the best single clue to what the pipe is made of and how it tends to fail.
In short
Solvent-welded PVC or ABS is almost certainly what lies beneath a typical property in Heath Springs, whose housing dates from around 1990. Plastic neither corrodes nor gives roots a joint to enter, so a repeating backup there is about fall rather than material.

What went in the ground around 1990
A lateral laid in Heath Springs in that period is most likely PVC or ABS, solvent-welded, and effectively immune to corrosion and to roots at the joint. A repeated backup here points at fall and alignment, not material. More on plastic laterals.
What a camera survey should settle here
Solvent-welded pipe rarely fails at the joint, so the survey is measuring fall and looking for standing water. The full picture on plastic laterals.
