Roseville homes were built since the mid-1990s — what does that mean for their drains?
Homes of that era typically have PVC drains and laterals. Plastic-era drains have fewer age problems; recurring clogs usually point to grease, slope or venting rather than pipe failure.
Who is responsible for the sewer lateral — me or the city?
In most California cities the homeowner owns the lateral all the way to the main (sometimes to the property line). Rules vary by city, and some require a lateral inspection certificate when you sell — check your local ordinance.
