I'm wondering what it would take to replace the section of sewer pipe from my house to the right of way. We have very sandy soil and no trees in the front yard to be concerned with. I'm thinking it's about a 30' foot run, but I don't know how deep it is. I'm in western NY about a mile south of Lake Ontario. The town has already replaced their section of the sewer with PVC and I'd like to do the same with mine.
Is this something I could do with a couple of shovels, some help and a lot of time or is heavy equipment absolutely required?
