What Customers Are Saying About Our Cast Iron Replacements
“Barth did an amazing job on our sewer project. The new concrete finish on the floor was super smooth, so we can now put down vinyl plank flooring. Their cleanup was superb! I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a quality repair.”

“Mike and Shawn were amazing. In addition to being consummate professionals, they are conscientious, kind, and caring. Great vibes and great energy: it was a pleasure to have them at our house. They replaced our 50-year-old cast iron sewer line. There were a lot of different steps and we were so impressed with how they handled each part of the process.”

“Mike was great to work with! Mike and Shawn were very professional as they were completing the work. Our sewer system below ground was all cast iron and had to be completely replaced. We also had them install a back-flow preventer and a cleanout in the front yard. Very competitive pricing.”
Recent Underground Cast Iron Projects
At Barth Company Sewer & Water, we believe a successful cast iron replacement begins long before we ever start breaking concrete. Our team of underground specialists starts by inspecting the cast iron pipes under your home to identify the root cause of the issue and determine the best solution. When it comes to cast iron replacement, we don’t simply show up and start jackhammering your floors. We take the time to properly prepare and protect your home throughout the entire process. Our first step is to install plastic barriers around walls, furniture, and other areas to help protect your home from dust and debris. We then map out the existing cast iron line so we know exactly where the work needs to be done and can minimize the area we disturb. Once the old cast iron piping has been removed and replaced with new PVC, we carefully pour and smooth the concrete over the work area. Our goal is to leave the surface as smooth and level as possible, making it easier to replace your flooring immediately or down the road. At Barth Company Sewer & Water, we take pride in treating every customer’s home as if it were our own. Our job isn’t finished when the new pipe is installed, it’s finished when the work area is cleaned up, and your home is left cleaner than we found it. Take a look at our recent cast iron replacements below!
