Common problems

Sound familiar?

Backups that cleaning won't fix

If the main line backs up again soon after cleaning, the pipe itself is likely broken, sagging or full of roots.

Wet or sunken yard

A soggy patch, lush green strip or sinkhole over the sewer path means wastewater is leaking into the soil.

Old clay, cast iron or Orangeburg pipe

Older Memphis-area sewer lines crack, rust through or collapse with age, and Mid-South clay soil shifting puts more stress on the joints.

What’s included

Everything it takes to get results

Camera diagnosis

When the line is failing along its length, we replace it with modern pipe.

Trenchless options

Where the line and site allow, lining or pipe bursting can replace a line with far less digging.

Questions

What people ask first

Who is responsible for the sewer line, me or the city?
In most cases, the homeowner owns the lateral line from the house to the connection at the city main, including the section under the yard. The main in the street belongs to the utility. We can locate the problem and show you which side it's on.
What is trenchless sewer repair?
Trenchless repair fixes the pipe without digging a trench its full length. Pipe lining cures a new pipe inside the old one, and pipe bursting pulls new pipe through as it breaks out the old one. Whether it fits depends on the pipe's condition, size and layout.
Can roots in a sewer line be fixed for good?
Cutting roots clears the line, but they grow back through the same cracked joints. A lasting fix means repairing or lining the joints the roots are getting through. The camera shows where they are.
How long does a sewer line repair take?
A spot repair is often done in a day. A full replacement takes longer depending on length, depth and what's above the line, like a driveway or trees. We'll give you a timeline with the price.
