- Cleanout Cap Replacement Program
A cleanout is a vertical pipe that connects to the underground sanitary sewer system. It has a removable cap in case you or your plumber need to access the sewer line. Sanitary sewer cleanout pipes are typically located somewhere near the front of the house (sometimes hidden in a flower bed), and are made of PVC pipe.
Mansfield Water Utilities will replace a missing or damaged cleanout cap at no charge. Fill out the form with your contact information, and we will schedule a time to inspect and replace your cap. You don't need to be home while it's replaced, and we'll leave a note once it's been completed.
Cleanout caps can be various sizes, colors and materials. Your cap might be located in places like a flowerbed near the house, out in the yard, or in or near a sidewalk or driveway.
