When you call us to repair a sewer system backup, we'll first do a sewer line inspection. We use an innovative plumbing video camera inspection to quickly find damage to your sewer line. We won't need to dig holes or take down walls - we'll watch the live camera feed to find out what's going on with your sewer line. Once we determine where why, and how your sewer line is damaged, we'll discuss your sewer system backup repairs. We want our customers to be able to make informed decisions about their plumbing services, so we walk them through every step of our plan. We may recommend one or more of these services to repair a sewer system backup:
- Hydro Jetting - Hydro jetting uses pressurized jets of water to break apart stubborn clogs in the sewer line. It is powerful enough to dissolve decades of built-up sludge coating your pipes. This debris causes your clogged sewer line will get flushed out of the pipes and into the city's sewer system.
- Rooter Work and Drain Cleaning - Two other methods of clearing clogged sewer lines are rooter work and drain cleaning. A powerful drain rooter can break through clogs deep within the sewer line. The rooter can tear apart roots, sticks, dirt, rocks, and other debris into smaller pieces so they can be flushed out. We combine this with our drain cleaning services, so the debris gets washed away into the city's sewer line.
- Pipe Relining - If we discover cracks, breaks, or leaks in your sewer pipes, we recommend pipe relining. This trenchless method uses a sleeve inserted into the sewer pipes. As the sleeve hardens, it also expands. It seals up cracks, breaks, and leaks and prevents future ones from occurring.
- Pipe Replacement - When the damage to your sewer line is too severe for pipe relining, we can use hydraulics to break apart the pipes. We’ll make two small holes at the beginning and end of your sewer line. We thread in a new pipe using the old one as a guide.
