There should be a municipal ordinance that defines the responsibility, and
the city public works office can direct you to it. The plumber may have a
different opinion about the location of the break - most have remote in pipe
cameras.

Side sewer line servicing private property "breaks". I am told the "break"
is below city owned property.
Who pays for repair: City of Seattle or property owner?
I seem to recall being told years ago that if a line breaks below the street
the City pays; if the line breaks from the edge of the street to the home
the owner pays.
Thanks for any feedback. Ron
