Sewer Installation in Raleigh
Raleigh’s Best Plumber, Three Years Running. Now Handling Sewer Installation.
When a sewer line needs to be installed or replaced, the job calls for a team that handles large-scale underground work as a regular part of their practice, not a crew treating it as an unfamiliar one-off. At Matthew's Plumbing Solutions, we bring the same capacity we apply to new construction plumbing projects and ongoing property management accounts to every sewer installation we take on in Raleigh and across Wake County.
Founded in 2017 by Matthew Walls, we run on a no-commission model. Our technicians have no financial incentive to recommend more work than your situation actually requires. That approach has shaped how we operate from day one, and it’s still true today.

Warning Signs Your Sewer Line Needs Replacement
Not every plumbing problem points to a sewer line issue, but a few patterns are hard to ignore. When multiple drains back up at the same time, that’s rarely an isolated clog. It often signals a compromised line deeper in the system.
Other signs worth taking seriously:
- Persistent sewage odors inside or around the home
- Slow drains throughout the house, not just in one fixture
- Wet or soggy patches in the yard with no clear source
- Sinkholes or depressions near where the sewer line runs
If you’re seeing more than one of these at once, a sewer camera inspection is usually the right first step. It shows exactly what’s happening inside the line and whether full replacement is what’s needed.
Permits, Soil, & What the Installation Process Looks Like
Connecting a property to the City of Raleigh’s water and sewer system involves two permits: a Utility Service stub permit to tap into the city main, and a Plumbing Utility permit to install the line on private property or easement. Work in the public right-of-way also requires a Certificate of Eligibility and a bond of up to $5,000. We handle this permitting process as part of the job so you don’t have to navigate it yourself.
Raleigh sits on Piedmont red clay soil, which is dense and slow-draining. That affects how excavation is planned and how the installation proceeds. Depending on your property and the existing line’s condition, we’ll determine whether traditional trench excavation or a trenchless method like pipe bursting is the better fit. Trenchless approaches can significantly reduce yard disruption, though the right choice depends on the specific job.
