I actually just got done replacing my line. It was about 100 ft of sewer pipe and I did a lot of the work myself. I did have a plumber come out and walk me through what I needed to do. The plumber quoted me $5k to do the entire job from the beginning. I trenched myself and installed most of the pipes myself and the entire job cost just under $1k.
If you have the time I would hire someone at $10 an hour to trench the old sewer pipe (that will be a majority of your cost) and have the plumber come and reinstall the pipe. It will be a lot cheaper if you have everything trenched for the plumber.
