Sewer work is the most expensive thing in residential plumbing, which is exactly why it attracts the most overselling. We inspect the line, show you the footage, and quote only the repair the line actually needs.
Roots at a single joint, a short cracked section, or a partial belly can often be repaired without replacing the entire run. Whether that's true for your line depends on what the camera shows. We'll tell you which category you're in, and if the line genuinely needs full replacement, you'll see exactly why.
Camera inspection first, always. From there you get a flat-rate quote for the specific repair, with the footage to back up the recommendation. Excavation depth, line length, and access all affect the number, which is why we don't quote sewer work over the phone.
When toilets and tubs back up together, the issue is downstream of everything.
Often the first outdoor clue of a cracked or separated line underground.
A strip of lawn growing faster than the rest can mark a leaking line feeding it.
If the main needs clearing every few months, something structural is catching debris.
No, and that's the most important thing to know. Roots at one joint or a short failed section can often be spot repaired. The camera determines which situation you're in.
Camera inspection combined with a locator that tracks the camera head, so we know both what the problem is and exactly where and how deep it sits.
It depends on the line's condition, material, and layout. We'll tell you honestly whether your line is a candidate or whether excavation is the realistic route.
Most residential replacements run one to three days depending on length, depth, and access. We'll give you a realistic timeline with the quote, not an optimistic one.
Diagnosis first, flat-rate quote before any work starts.
