Who is responsible for the sewer line, the homeowner or the city?

In Oklahoma City, the property owner is generally responsible for the private sewer line all the way to its connection, or tap, at the City sewer main. The City maintains the public sewer main itself. That means a problem beneath a yard or near the connection may still be on the homeowner's side, even when the line runs beyond the lot boundary. Rules can differ in other towns, so confirm the exact responsibility with your local sewer utility before authorizing work. VIP PlumbingOk can inspect the private line, explain whether it needs cleaning, repair or replacement, and coordinate appropriate work.
