What It Is
Your sewer line carries every drain in the house out to the city sewer or your septic tank. Roots, shifting soil and age can crack, sag or collapse it, and we inspect it, repair it, or replace it.
Sewer Services
Camera inspection, spot repairs, trenchless options and full sewer line replacement.
Signs You Need It
- Repeated main line backups
- Sewage smell in the yard or house
- Soggy or sunken spots in the lawn
- Drains that gurgle after flushing
What To Expect
We start with a camera inspection to see the condition of the line and find the trouble spot. Then we walk you through the options, from a spot repair to a full replacement, and what each one involves for your yard.

What We Handle
-
Sewer Line Inspection
An inspection shows the condition of your sewer line from the house to the street. It's the right first step before any repair, and smart when you're buying a home.
What's included
- Camera inspection of the full line
- Locating problem spots and depth
- Notes on roots, sags and cracks
- Recommendations based on what we find
Common signs you need this
- Backups that keep coming back
- Buying or selling an older home
- Large trees near the sewer line
-
Spot Repairs
When the damage is limited to one section, we repair just that section. It costs less and disturbs less of your yard than replacing the whole line.
What's included
- Pinpointing the damaged section
- Excavating only the repair area
- Replacing the broken pipe
- Backfill and flow test
Common signs you need this
- One crack or offset joint found on camera
- Roots entering at a single joint
-
Trenchless Options
Trenchless methods repair or replace a sewer line through small access points instead of a long open trench. When your line is a good fit, it saves your driveway, landscaping and lawn.
What's included
- Camera check to confirm the line is a fit
- Small access points instead of a full trench
- Repair or replacement of the line
- Final camera check
Common signs you need this
- Sewer line runs under a driveway or patio
- Mature landscaping over the line
-
Full Line Replacement
When a sewer line is collapsed, badly sagged or failing in several places, replacing it is the lasting fix. We install new pipe from the house to the connection point.
What's included
- Removal of the failed line
- New sewer pipe installed to code
- New cleanout where needed
- Flow test and site cleanup
Common signs you need this
- Collapsed or crushed pipe on camera
- Multiple breaks along the line
- Old clay or cast iron pipe failing
