Sewer Line Repair & Replacement
When the trouble is past the cleanout, guessing gets expensive fast. We put a camera down the line and show you the footage before anybody digs.
Sewer Line Repair & Replacement in the South Bay
How we approach it
A sewer lateral fails in a small number of ways: roots find a joint, the pipe bellies and holds water, or old clay and cast iron simply crack. Each of those has a different fix and a very different price, and you cannot tell them apart from the top of the cleanout.
So the camera goes first, always. You see what we see, we locate the defect on the surface, and then you decide between a spot repair and a full replacement with the actual facts in front of you.
What the job covers
- Video camera inspection with locating
- Spot repairs where the defect is isolated
- Full lateral replacement where it is not
- Cleanout installation if the line has no access
- Permit handling and inspection scheduling
- Backfill, compaction and surface restoration
Signs you are looking at this job
- Several fixtures backing up at the same time
- Wastewater rising in the shower when a toilet flushes
- A patch of lawn that is greener or sunken than the rest
- Repeat main-line clogs a few months apart
- Sewer smell outside near the line run
Not sure which one it is?
Describe it however it comes out — the noise, the smell, where the water is. We ask the few questions that narrow it down and tell you whether it needs someone today or whether it can wait until the week.
