Sewer Line Backing Up? We Diagnose It Before We Dig.
Camera inspection first, then the least invasive repair that actually fixes it — from a single crack to a full line replacement, with trenchless options that skip tearing up your yard when the situation allows.
Signs You Might Have A Sewer Line Problem
Sewer line issues rarely announce themselves loudly at first — these are the early warning signs.
Multiple Drains Backing Up At Once
Toilets, tubs, and sinks all struggling at the same time points to the main line.
Sewage Odor In the Yard or House
A persistent sewer smell usually means gas is escaping from a broken line.
Soggy or Unusually Green Patches
A leaking sewer line acts like fertilizer for the grass right above it.
Slow Drains Throughout the Whole House
Not just one fixture — every drain in the house running slower than normal.
Sinkholes or Indentations In the Lawn
A collapsed or badly leaking pipe can wash out the soil supporting it.
Recurring Clogs Despite Regular Cleaning
If cabling keeps needing a repeat visit, the problem is likely structural.
Trenchless When Possible. Traditional When Necessary.
We diagnose before we ever break ground — here's how a sewer repair actually goes.
Camera Inspection
We locate the exact break, crack, or root intrusion before recommending anything.
Diagnose the Cause
Collapsed pipe, root intrusion, a bellied line, or corrosion — each needs a different fix.
Choose the Right Repair
Trenchless pipe lining or bursting when the situation allows, traditional dig when it doesn't.
Repair & Verify
A final camera pass confirms the fix before we close everything back up.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is trenchless sewer repair, and am I a candidate?
Trenchless repair fixes a damaged sewer line through one or two small access points instead of digging up the full length of pipe. It works well for cracks, root intrusion, and some collapsed sections — but a severely collapsed or misaligned line may still need a traditional dig. A camera inspection tells us which applies to you.
How much does sewer line repair cost?
It depends heavily on the length of pipe affected, the repair method, and access. We provide a specific quote after the camera inspection — not before, since guessing at sewer repair pricing rarely holds up once the actual problem is visible.
What causes a sewer line to fail?
The most common causes are tree root intrusion, pipe age and corrosion (especially clay or cast-iron lines), ground shifting causing a bellied or misaligned section, and physical damage from nearby construction or heavy equipment.
How long does sewer line repair take?
Trenchless repairs are often completed in a single day. Traditional excavation repairs typically take 1–3 days depending on the length of pipe, depth, and any landscaping or hardscape that needs to be restored.
Will my yard or driveway be torn up?
Only if a traditional dig is required. Trenchless methods use small access points and leave most of the yard untouched. We'll tell you upfront which approach your situation calls for before any work begins.
