New Sewer Line

Unfortunately, our plumbing lines have not drained well since we moved into this house.  When we called this last time to have the lines snaked, again, this company ran a camera down the pipes as part of their normal service, no extra charge.  (Wasn't that nice of them?) And the verdict was... we needed a new sewer line.  The line had multiple bumps and dips and was collapsed about 5 feet from the fence line.  So, we scheduled it with the company, I closed down school for a week, and here they are:

The Culprit: Bad Pipes!
The Trench
Piles of dirt where our best grass used to be.

Pit in the alley for tap into main sewer line:
about 18 feet deep! 
Yeah!  New Pipes!
Fortunately, they were able to repair it in only 2 days.  Now everything drains better than ever!
