Florissant's older sewer laterals
Pre-1980 housing here is 73%, above the Missouri figure of 53%. That ranks 3rd highest of the 16 Missouri cities we profile. Clay pipe lets roots in at the joints, cast iron scales and cracks, and the line from the house to the street belongs to the homeowner in most places.
81% of homes are detached houses with their own lateral, so a backup that keeps coming back is usually worth a camera inspection rather than another snaking.
In Missouri: Winter cold snaps freeze exposed pipes, and basements make sump pumps common.
Permits
Excavation in the yard or street needs a permit, and someone has to call 811 first to get utilities marked.
