Had to take an emergency day off today to fix this shit..Who the fuck would invent orangeburg pipe? If you guys got this shit running, get rid of this shit guys...My line was infested with tree roots. Had to pull all of it out and put abs in...Grr hard ass work, trenching..Having the main sewer line back up is nothing nice....Happy it's over, what a f'n nightmare.....

That old pipe is one poor ass design. Went through the same thing this last fall. No fun!

tell me about it. the rest of the pipe went from a 4inch squeezed to 1 inch bottle neck caused from roots and compacting over the years. damn pain in the ass.

Been there done that. Luckily I have friends in construction that brought over a back hoe and completed the job in an hour. Player price too, paid less than a G. It's the price of owning an older home.
