I am in awe of just how wonderful mother modern plumbing company was. From the first person to the last person you guys are professional, efficient, honest, and speedy. Not only things that make a great business, but their team also has integrity and heart. Dustin, Steven, Jerry, and connor plus the excavating team went above and beyond the scope of their required jobs. They were there to fix a leak under our foundation that had been quoted a ridiculous number by another company so we went with Mother after they came out to do a second opinion with no fee. They also helped me install a showerhead and filter that has been sitting in my home for over a year. Then after all the work was done at the end of the night Connor saw myself and my 78 year old grandmother struggling to move some furniture offered to assist us. The kicker was during a follow up call to see how the job went and I mentioned in passing that my daughter's bday was that day. THEY SENT HER A GIFT FOR HER BDAY. No one does that! Mother modern does tho! I have already recommended mother modern plumbing to 3 people one of which just had a leak happen a few days ago.

We used Mother Plumbing to repipe our entire home from cast iron to pvc as well as to fix a slab leak for a family of 7 home. Both were costly and worrisome. We couldn’t be happier or feel safer with any other company. From beginning to end Mother has proven their reliability, honesty, extensive knowledge and troubleshooting skills. Not only have they done impeccable work, but their work ethic, personal and social responsibility standards that they uphold is beyond anything we’ve ever seen or experienced from any company we’ve worked with. There are no tricks, no games, what they say is exactly what they do and charge, there are no added fees after the fact. We had several unplanned situations come up and they worked quickly and didn’t upcharge a single thing they quoted from the first estimate. We’ve worked with Colton, Stephen and Jerry and they are transparent, skilled and extremely diligent. I will only be recommending Mother Modern Plumbing from now on. They are a rare and incredible company. Thank you for making a very hard situation manageable in so many ways and keeping our family safe!

SND Plumbing is fantastic! And working with Steve was great. We had a sewage line break in the front yard. Steve came out and found the break in short order. He then gave me the option of digging the hole to get to it and save $1,300. So, I did it which was great. They then came out and made the repair and filled in the hole at no additional charge which was awesome! Steve and SND will be our plumbers going forward!

I dealt with several people during my project. Everyone was so kind, and professional. They explained the problem well and gave me options to fix it. Once we had a plan they jumped on it and got it done quickly. I’m so glad I chose to work with them.

Steven put the new sewer lines for converting septic to city. The process went smooth. He was patient to explain all of our questions and concerns. Based on this experience, we had him work on other things at home. Highly recommend Steven for any plumbing needs!

Best Service we have ever had. They had to re-do our entire plumbing. We have only been in the house for less than 4 months. What they found was horrible. Their honesty was amassing. The pictures/video showed everything. I would recommend these folks absolutely 💯.. Thank you Mother Plumbing team!!

For someone with enough plumbing experience of installing one sink faucet, SND plumbing was a blessing to my wife and I. It all started with the gurgling of the toilet, then the sewer backed up, shower back up. We hired three plumbers before calling SND all to have the problem coming right back after just a few weeks. SND was the only one that finally took the time, investigated and worked with us to determine the real cause. We had to replace our entire plumbing system underneath the foundation, and SND did a wonderful job. Five major wins I'd like to point out when we worked with Steven at SND: 1) Punctual. Steven showed up when he said he would. Sent communications and quotes to us when he said he would. 2) Patience. Steven took the time to explain everything in detail, answered all the questions in detail so we had a clear picture of what was going on, and the best and worst-case scenarios. 3) Honesty. Steven could have patched up something or gave us a temporary solution and make a quick buck. But instead, he strongly nudged us to get a foundation inspection first to help identify the true cause of the problem. He wanted to FIX IT for the next 15+ years instead of just something temporary. 3) Considerate. Not only it was a messy job to us and the tenants (trenching, digging, crawling under the foundation, all while it was raining), there were hours where we couldn't turn on the water or flush the toilets. Steven worked with us and my tenants closely to make sure we knew what to expect and when, so we could plan accordingly ahead of time. 4) Fair pricing. We did compare different quotes. SND's pricing was very reasonable 5) Confidence. By interacting with SND ahead of the project, it gave us the confidence that they were the right choice. SND is also confident with the quality of their work, so they applied many years of warranty to this large project. Thanks Steve and SND!

Rick came out to help us with a problem we were having, and he was able to quickly identify what the issue was. He explained the issue, and the work needed to remedy. I had not heard of Mother Modern Plumbing until the other day, but I’m happy to have them in supporting our needed work!

We recently used Mother Modern Plumbing for a yard sewer repair and we were very impressed with their professionalism, efficiency and fair prices. Steven arrived on time, clearly explained the issue and provided me an estimate. The job was completed on one day, it required lots of digging and the weather was cold about 34. This was our first time using them but it won’t be the last.

I had to have all of my cast iron drains replaced ☠️ As of this review all of the plumbing is completed in just under 1 week, pending the backfill. Everyone I worked with including Steven, Tyler, the excavation crew and Joe and Tyler were great to work with. They were extremely patient with my questions, thorough with information and even fixed some other minor plumbing work not directly related to the drain pipe issue before they left. Everyone worked hard, showed up on time, and were as clean as possible given they had to be laying in mud most of the time. I really appreciate everyone's hard work and dedication. You may finder lower quotes but I couldn't expect any better of care and work than what I received and that matters. Overall 5 stars to Mother Modern Plumbing......but 0/10 recommend buying a house with cast iron drain pipes in DFW 😂😭

Want to give a HUGE shoutout to Matthew Silkwood and Jesse Crane! Through the year into our house, we bought for the history of the neighborhood and the architecture. Trying to keep the house in shape I’ve learned to keep one thing to keep in mind, picking businesses who you are going to keep in your back pocket because the integrity and the immense knowledge they carry. Plumbing issues are aren’t fun, Jesse came out and made it easy to digest information and adding to our knowledge of home owning. Showed me every crevasse of our plumbing and highlighted areas of repairs and sat us down and built a plan. You can tell this business adds value from treating you with a welcoming smile and clean look to getting to see the dirty and destruction of your plumbing issues. Truly amazed how easy this was. Mothers are your people you rely on. 10/5 stars

We have lived in our home for 10 years and we knew one day sadly our cast iron would have to be replaced. I noticed more and more homes having this process done. When our home failed a pressure test for foundation adjustment, I started looking into companies to inspect the old system with a camera, all showed and I saw failed cast iron pipes. The next step was getting bids, OMG sticker shock, once we we reviewed our proposal's and understood the scope of work, the choice wasn't hard. Mother was the one we chose. Jessie was understanding and very knowledgeable and worked with us on the final price. My wife and I were really amazed with how fast they started digging, the dig crew were really good, very professional and very hard working. Jerry the plumber and his helper Conner, were unbelievable with the amount of time they put in everyday redoing all the sewer lines on our home. Jerry is dedicated to a standard of workmanship that you don't run into much these days, sadly. When Jerry was finished with his part the dig crew, Castillo Excavations, were amazing to watch them reverse the dig out process. What dirt didn't go back in was removed from the job site, not my headache thank God. Overall these guys were a good choice and yes it was more than I wanted to spend, but no regrets. Thank you Mother

This company is fantastic. Mothers diagnosed the issue as a broken waste water pipe after another company had misdiagnosed the issue. It was an expensive repair but we did locate the broken cast iron pipe under the house. Now, not only is the new plumbing system working perfectly for over a month, but we don’t have to worry about the waste water that was seeping into our foundation. Every promise and expectation given was honored. Well worth the price. This is the way.

Expert DFW Sewer Line Repair & Replacement

Your buried sewer main is leaking into your backyard. Now’s not the time to deal with shoddy workmanship or cut-rate plumbing. If you’re paying for sewer service, you should only have to do it once- and do it right.

Mother provides turnkey restoration driven by engineering accuracy and expert, red carpet service. We use new pipe materials rated to last 50-100 years, and the work is backed by our own comprehensive 20-year warranty.

From your dedicated service concierge, to your assigned Master Plumber, to the on-site technicians with decades of Dallas-Fort Worth sewer line experience, here’s how Mother’s changing the way local homeowners experience plumbing service.

Is It a Clog or a Collapse? Know the Symptoms

Before you fix your DFW sewer line, you have to know if it's broken or just clogged. Mother always starts with sewer line diagnostics (like our Best-in-DFW sewer camera inspection) to ensure you’re not wasting time and money on needless excavation or repairs.

While gurgling sinks usually mean you need a cleaning, structural damage to your pipes creates a different set of nightmare scenarios. Here’s how to tell the difference:

Five Symptoms of a Damaged or Broken Sewer Line:

  • Yard Depressions: You notice "sinkholes" or soft, low spots in your lawn where the soil is being sucked into a broken pipe.
  • Persistent Foundation Cracks: Structural shifts in your home that align with the path of your buried sewer line.
  • Recurring "Spot" Blockages: You clear a clog, but it returns in the exact same measurement of pipe every time. This indicates a bellied sewer line, or a break.
  • Rodent or Pest Intrusions: Unexplained pest issues; broken sewer lines are the primary "highway" for rodents to enter a home's foundation.
  • Sewer Gas Odors: A persistent smell of raw sewage in your yard that doesn't go away after the drains are cleared.

Turnkey Sewer Repairs with the Safest Plumbers in DFW

A damaged sewer line is messy enough. With Mother, the rest of your service experience is clean and crystal clear.

We don't just tear holes in your yard. We manage the entire engineering project so you can get your life back to normal with as little disruption as possible to your property- and your life.

  • 20-Year ‘Bumper-to-Bumper’ Warranty: We cover parts and labor for 240 months. If our workmanship or materials fail, we fix it at zero cost to you.
  • Fast Excavation: If digging is necessary, our teams are trained for speed and precision to minimize the time your home is under construction.
  • $200 Landscaping Credit: We know excavation is messy. Every full replacement includes a credit to help get your lawn looking new again.
  • Trenchless Options: If we can fix your main sewer line without digging, we will. 
  • Fully Transferable: This warranty stays with the house, adding massive resale value to your property.

Schedule 40 PVC: The Premier Modern Sewer Material

When we replace a sewer line, we use Schedule 40 PVC. Some builders use thinner SDR-35 pipe claiming it saves money- that’s a recipe for new pipe repairs 10 years from now.

Mother insists on the heavy-duty standard for three reasons:

  1. Wall Thickness: Schedule 40 PVC has thicker walls that resist the crushing shrink/swell force of North Texas clay soil.
  2. Chemical Resistance: It is virtually immune to the household chemicals, wastewater acids and sewer gases that eat away at old cast iron or clay pipes.
  3. Internal Smoothness: The "friction factor" is much lower than metal pipes, meaning grease and debris have a harder time catching on the walls.

Discover The Right Repair or Replacement Option for You

Every home is different. We offer four traditional ways to restore your home's flow:

Spot Repairs 

Best for a single "event" like a root-snapped joint or a fence post driven through a pipe. We fix only the damaged section.

Best use cases: Damaged sections of sewer pipes under 10 feet in length. These include single tree root intrusions and accidental punctures.

Partial Sewer Line Replacement 

If the section of pipe under your yard is failing but the pipe under your house is healthy, we replace only the outdoor run.

Best use cases: Damaged sections of sewer lines between 10-50 feet in length. These include multiple root intrusions, joint separations and targeted corrosion of cast iron pipes.

Full Sewer Line Replacement 

A complete "start-to-finish" replacement from the house to the city main. This is the permanent solution for aging cast iron or failing clay systems.

Best use cases: A corroded, degraded or fully collapsed sewer pipe 50+ feet in length. In DFW, full replacement is ideal for outdated cast iron and clay lines, significant sewer bellies and collapsed sections.

Sewer Pipe Rerouting 

In some cases, it is smarter to abandon the old pipe under your slab and run a new line around the exterior of your home.

Instead, we plan a new path for a fresh pipe section that goes around the trouble spot instead of through it. The new pipe is great for future maintenance and inspections- it's out of the way of your foundation and easier to access. We cap the old damaged pipe section off at both ends and leave it in the ground.

Best use cases: Rerouting your sewer line is a great option for homeowners who don't want to break their concrete slab foundation, tear up expensive hardscaping or disrupt the structural integrity of an old home.

Want a deeper dive on your repair options? If you need traditional sewer repair in the DFW Metroplex, start with our comprehensive guide.

Trenchless Repairs Save Time, Money and Mess

For homeowners who want to preserve expensive driveways or custom patios, we offer trenchless options like CIPP Sewer Lining (creating a new pipe inside the old one) and Pipe Bursting (pulling a new pipe through the old one). 

These methods limit the need for deep trenches. They also save the average homeowner 1-2 full days of labor costs and thousands in landscape remediation.

Is your damaged sewer pipe a candidate for trenchless repairs?  Compare pipe bursting and pipe lining use cases.

Mother’s Sewer Repair and Replacement Process: What to Expect

When you call Mother for a sewer repair, we pick up the phone 24/7. Major pipe failures don't happen on a schedule- so we’re here whenever they happen.

There’s no waiting for a long appointment window. Track our trucks to see exactly when your plumber will arrive, and check out their photo and bio ahead of time. We’ll arrive at the scheduled time and roll the (literal) red carpet to your door to protect your home’s sanctuary.

Once your sewer repair begins, here is what you can expect from the Mother technical team.

Camera Inspection Confirms the Problem First

Sewer repair without a diagnosis is just expensive guesswork. Mother never breaks ground without knowing precisely where the problem is. Pre-service camera inspection identifies three critical factors:

  • Structural Integrity: We confirm if the pipe has collapsed, bellied (sagged), or simply cracked.
  • Exact Failure Location: Pinpointing the obstruction or break determines whether we need a spot repair or a full replacement.
  • Depth and Obstacles: We map the line to avoid utility strikes and plan the most surgical excavation path possible.

Engineering, Permits, and Legal Accuracy

If you need tunnels or any foundation work, that’s enough of a headache. Mother handles the extra hassle of City Hall and administrative hurdles for you. 

We provide engineering reports for every tunnel and handle all city permits from start to finish. We keep these inspections on file so you have a clear, legal record of the repair for your home’s history.

Precision Excavation and New Sewer Installation

We prioritize speed to completion so you get your home back quickly. Our teams execute surgical excavation to expose the damaged line. We remove the failed cast iron, clay, or thin-walled plastic and replace it with heavy-duty Schedule 40 PVC

Our licensed plumbers use proper bedding" placing the new pipe on a stable base of sand or gravel- to prevent the shifting Dallas, Tarrant and Collin County clay in your backyard from causing a repeat failure.

If your inspection reveals we can conduct trenchless repairs, Mother’s attention to detail remains the same. We access your damaged pipe section via your sewer line cleanout or two small, targeted pits in your yard- minimum damage, maximum benefit.

Pressure Testing and Independent Verification

Before we bury the new line, we perform a pressure test to ensure every joint is watertight. We coordinate with independent city inspectors to verify the work meets or exceeds DFW building codes. We don't fill the hole until we have proof that your new sewer section will endure for 50+ years.

Backfill and Landscaping Restoration

Once the repair is verified, we backfill the area and compact the soil to prevent future sinkholes or settling. Because we know excavation is hard on a lawn, we apply your $200 landscaping credit to help you get your yard back to its original beauty. You walk away with a clear line and the peace of mind of a 20-year warranty.

Mother’s Lasting Commitment to Your New Residential Sewer Line

A sewer replacement is one of the largest investments you’ll make in your DFW home. We treat the project with the necessary level of respect. From your dedicated service concierge to the Master Plumber that oversees your project, experts care for you and your property at every step.

From background-checked technicians to our transferrable 20-year warranty, we ensure that your sewer line repair or replacement is a fix that lasts generations.
