Sewer Line Repair in Keller, TX
In Keller the sewer lateral — the run from the house to the public main — belongs to whoever owns the property, not to the utility. There are 39,040 occupied homes here, and across all the housing the median build year is 2002 — the best single clue to what the pipe is made of and how it tends to fail.
In short
A lateral serving Keller housing of roughly 2002 is plastic, and plastic is effectively immune to corrosion and to root intrusion at the joint. What is left is geometry, which is what a camera survey actually measures.

What went in the ground around 2002
A lateral laid in Keller 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.
Keller is the 25th largest block of laterals we cover in Texas, carrying about 0.8% of the 4,766,101 homes on our TX list, and its housing runs older than 38% of the TX towns we route. Age concentration matters on a lateral: where a whole street went in one season, the failures arrive in one season too.
74% of homes here are owner-occupied — 17 points above the TX 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 Keller ZIP codes is $144,466 — the number to read against a repair that is the owner’s alone.

Before anyone digs in Keller, get the run on camera — and ask about fall rather than material, because solvent-welded pipe rarely fails at the joint. What the recording should show you.
