Signs And Causes Of Sewer Line Problems
Common Symptoms You Might Notice
Sewer problems often start with slow drains, gurgling toilets, or recurring clogs that return after basic snaking. You may also notice sewage odors outside, wet spots in the yard, or backups at the lowest drains in the building. If any of these show up repeatedly, the line needs a professional inspection to confirm what is happening underground.
What Typically Damages Sewer Lines
Roots in the sewer line can enter through joints and small cracks, then expand and block flow. Settling soil can create dips that hold water or pull joints apart, and heavy traffic can stress shallow lines. Older materials such as clay and cast iron are more likely to crack, scale, or corrode, which makes targeted repair or replacement a smart investment.
Diagnostics That Prove The Problem
Sewer Camera Inspection And Locating
Every job begins with proof, not guesswork. A sewer camera inspection shows cracks, offsets, bellies, roots, and buildup, and locating tools map the depth and direction of the line. With this evidence, we outline a plan in plain language so you can approve the next step with confidence.
Cleaning Before Diagnosis And Repair
Hydro jetting clears grease, scale, and roots so the camera can see the true condition of the pipe. This approach supports accurate decisions about trenchless pipe lining, spot repair, or replacement and helps the chosen fix last longer. We handle underground drain cleaning and sewer line drain cleaning as part of the prep so results are clean and documented.
Repair Options That Protect Your Property
Trenchless Pipe Lining CIPP
Trenchless pipe lining, also called CIPP, restores a damaged line by creating a smooth, durable interior inside the existing pipe. After cleaning and prep, a resin liner is installed and cured, which seals leaks and improves flow without a long trench. Lining is well suited for cracked pipes, minor offsets, and root intrusion under driveways, patios, or slabs.
Pipe Bursting And Targeted Replacement
When a pipe is crushed, missing sections, or badly deformed, pipe bursting can replace it through small access points. The new pipe follows the existing path while the old pipe is broken outward, which limits surface disruption and speeds up restoration. If only a short segment has failed, we use a small open cut with careful staging to protect lawns and hard surfaces.
Fixing Specific Failures
Roots In The Sewer Line And Offset Joints
Root intrusion and joint offsets cause repeat clogs and slow drains if left alone. We remove growth with hydro jetting, then use camera footage to confirm whether lining or a focused repair is the right choice. By sealing joints and smoothing the interior, the line resists future blockages and returns to steady flow.
Collapsed Or Ruptured Sewer Line Repair
A collapsed sewer line or a ruptured sewer line needs a clear plan that restores structure and flow quickly. We evaluate the damaged section, confirm soil conditions, and recommend trenchless sewer repair, pipe bursting, or a short open cut as needed. After the repair, we test performance on video and provide files you can keep for your records.
Access And Prevention
Cleanout Installation For Faster Service
An outdoor cleanout makes inspection and maintenance simpler and safer. We install or upgrade cleanouts so future hydro jetting and camera work can be done without entering the building or disturbing landscaping. This small addition lowers ongoing costs and speeds up service when issues arise.
Maintenance Plans And Care Tips
Regular camera checks and periodic sewer line drain cleaning help prevent surprise backups. We suggest a schedule that matches usage, materials, and the age of the system, then provide simple steps you can follow between visits. With routine care, the line stays quiet, clear, and ready for heavy loads.
Commercial Sewer Line Repair
Larger Diameters And High Use Sites
Restaurants, retail centers, offices, and multifamily properties need lines that handle constant demand. We scale trenchless pipe lining, pipe bursting, and hydro jetting for larger diameters and provide inspection reports that support maintenance planning. Managers receive clear communication, predictable timelines, and media files for property records.
Scheduling, Safety, And Documentation
Commercial work is coordinated around business hours and foot traffic so people can move safely. Crews manage 811 utility locates, mark routes, and stage equipment to protect walkways and entrances throughout the job. Closeout includes video of the repaired line, measurements, and notes that make future decisions easier.
