Sewer Line Replacement in University Heights, OH
When repair isn't enough — durable, warrantied full line replacement.

Sewer lines don't last forever. In University Heights and older Cleveland-area neighborhoods, homes built before the 1970s often have clay tile, Orangeburg, or cast iron sewer lines that are now failing after decades in the ground. When repeated repairs stop making sense — or when a camera inspection reveals a collapsed, offset, or root-destroyed line — full replacement is the right call. On Our Way Plumbing replaces sewer lines with modern PVC or HDPE materials backed by long-term warranties.
We offer both traditional open-trench replacement and trenchless methods (pipe bursting and pipe lining) where site conditions allow. Trenchless replacement lets us install a brand-new sewer line with minimal digging — often just two access pits — saving your landscaping, driveway, and hardscaping. When open-trench is required, we handle all excavation, city permitting, inspection coordination, and site restoration.

Why University Heights Residents Choose On Our Way Plumbing
University Heights gets its name and much of its identity from John Carroll University, the Jesuit institution that has anchored this east side community since 1935 when it relocated from the west side of Cleveland. The campus's Gothic architecture and manicured grounds set the tone for a city of about 13,000 residents who value education, community, and well-kept neighborhoods. The Cedar Road corridor and Warrensville Center Road intersection form the city's commercial heart, while the tree-lined streets off Silsby Road and Fenwick Road are home to a mix of long-time residents, young families, and rental properties popular with students and faculty — properties where plumbing issues need to be handled quickly to keep tenants happy.

Sewer Line Replacement in University Heights — FAQ
Trenchless (pipe bursting or lining) installs a new line inside or in place of the old one through small access pits, leaving your yard mostly intact. Open-trench excavates the entire line — more disruption but sometimes the only option depending on depth, condition, and city rules.
