Sewer Line Repair for Salisbury Homes

Salisbury is about 20 minutes up US 29 or I-85. Its historic districts hold homes from the 1800s and early 1900s, often with clay or cast iron sewer pipe under big shade trees. Roots get into old joints. Salisbury-Rowan Utilities handles the public main, and the line from your house to it is usually yours.
