Sewer Pipe Patch Cost in Columbus

The short answer

A push-in-place point patch starts at $2,800 for a patch up to 5 feet, with suitable access and suitable pipe conditions. It's recommended when a camera inspection finds one damaged section that can be repaired without replacing or lining the whole sewer.
