In my city, remodeling 50% or more of your house could trigger a requirement to replace both the main drain and water line between your house and the city sewer and water main, using new PVC drain and copper water pipe. My 1920s house was subject to this rule. The cast iron main drain was found to already have holes under the basement slab. Cost was $22,000 in 2019. 25 ft of lawn, 5 ft of sidewalk, and 6 ft into the street had to be dug up and replaced. Contractor had to excavate about 6 ft deep.

Yep. Each case is different but sewer replacements are never cheap.

I need a partial replacment, pipes collapsed, due to a tree (the tree is now gone), we already made the trench, and the pipe attached to the sewer doesn't need to be replaced Maybe about 40 feet to be replaced, there is no concreat in the way, nothing needs to be dug into the only thing we need to do is for them to attach pipes. How much do you think it would be

It's hard to say without seeing the job. Safety is a big concern with excavation work. So the already dug ditch would need to be inspected to make sure it's safe and ready to install the piping.

Would leaving the pipe be an option I feel like I’ve seen that going around KZitem. Total novice

Pipe lining works if the host pipe is still in good shape.
