Revere sewer lines
EPA states that since January 2000 Revere "experienced in excess of 722 sewer blockages or capacity limitations resulting in basement backups," plus approximately 53 additional occasions where blockages or capacity limitations discharged raw sewage to surface waters. The 2010 consent decree measures, costing roughly $75 million, were expected to eliminate over 100 basement backups each year.
The City reports that over the last 12 years it has rehabilitated 90% of its sanitary sewer system using cured-in-place-pipe (CIPP) lining; Phase XIV, begun September 2024, covers approximately 8,300 linear feet of 8- to 12-inch sanitary sewer main plus all associated service lateral connections and manholes, with CIPP as the primary trenchless method.
Revere's Inflow Removal contracts redirect private inflow sources — sump pumps, roof drains, roof leaders, driveway drains and yard drains — which "are in violation of The Clean Water Act when discharging to the sanitary sewer." Contract 12 covers redirection of 36 private property inflow sources plus roughly 1,800 linear feet of new 12- to 18-inch drain pipe, 14 drain manholes and 15 catch basins.
Revere established a sewer mitigation fee and inflow/infiltration removal program: residential development of three or more units and commercial development are assessed a sewer mitigation fee based on the MassDEP standard formula, and those funds are used for sewer rehabilitation to remove infiltration and inflow.
Common questions
Drain & Sewer FAQs in Revere
What is trenchless sewer repair and how does it work?
Trenchless sewer repair uses advanced technology to fix or replace damaged sewer lines without digging up your yard, driveway, or landscaping. Spencer Home Services offers two primary methods: CIPP lining (inserting a resin-coated liner that cures inside your existing pipe) and pipe bursting (breaking the old pipe while pulling a new one through). Both methods require only 1-2 small access points instead of a full trench. Most repairs are completed in a single day.
How much does trenchless sewer repair cost in Revere?
While trenchless repair itself may cost a similar amount to traditional excavation, you save significantly on landscape restoration, driveway repair, and lost time. You receive options and pricing before work begins, and you choose which work to approve. Estimates for installations and replacements are free.
How long does trenchless pipe repair take?
Most trenchless sewer repairs are completed in a single day. CIPP lining typically takes 4–6 hours to install and cure. Pipe bursting can be completed in 1–2 days depending on pipe length and access. Compare that to traditional excavation which can take 3–5 days of digging plus weeks of landscape restoration.
What does a sewer camera inspection show?
The camera shows you exactly what’s wrong — cracks, root intrusion, bellied pipe, offsets — so we can recommend the right repair method. You see the footage on-screen before any work begins.
How quickly can you get to Revere for a sewer emergency?
Same-day sewer service is available throughout Revere and the surrounding communities. For sewer emergencies — backups, collapses, or sewage in your yard — call (978) 293-5770.
How quickly can a drain & sewer technician get to Revere?
Same-day drain & sewer service is available throughout Revere and nearby communities.
Is there a fee for a drain call in Revere?
There is no dispatch fee on a drain, clog or backup call, and the repair is priced on the spot before work starts. After hours, a drain call carries the $389 after-hours fee ($194.50 for Service Partner Plan members), waived when the repair is done. Estimates are free.
