Just hit a $12,000 quote for a new sewer line in Bonnie Doon

I was getting a few estimates for a basement reno and the sewer scope showed a full collapse. The first contractor came back with a number that made my heart stop. It's a huge chunk of change I didn't plan for, and it has to be fixed before any other work can start. Has anyone else had to deal with a surprise sewer replacement in an older neighborhood here?

What, you got off easy, ours was twenty grand last year.

Seriously, twenty grand? I thought my five thousand hurt. Did you at least get a cool rocket ship sticker for your trouble, or just the usual "thanks for your contribution" form letter?
