              In most cases, the utility only knows where the sewer enters the property. If you have just one bath now, or two back to back, the sewer should be in a straight line out the wall on the side closest to that sewer connection. If the system is old enough, the cleanout is probably just a tee in the line with a plug in it. Otherwise, an electronic locating service can find it for a fee of $100-$200.: anyone out there know how to locate a sewer line? were adding on a new bathroom and need to tie in the the existing sewer but we cant find it! weve dug about 10 holes in our yard to no avail and cannot find a cleanout anywhere ! help!
