Sewer line issues can lead to many unpleasant problems in your property. Some common signs you may be experiencing a sewer line issue include:
- Bad smells: If you notice a sewer odor inside your home, this could indicate issues with your sewer line.
- Frequent backups: Drain backups and toilet clogs can cause many minor problems beyond a sewer line. However, if several fixtures in your home are affected – it could be a sign of a sewer line issue. Multiple drains blocked inside the home likely indicate a sewer line problem.
- Mold: Mold damage is not only bad for your health, but it can also cause serious damage to your home. Broken pipes can cause leaking, resulting in hidden mold damage.
- Pests: Insects and rodents can travel through sewer lines and ultimately end up inside of your home. If you’ve noticed more pests than usual in your home, it might be a sign of a sewer line issue.
- Cracks: Cracks in the walls of your home or your foundation could be caused by sewage line leaks. It’s vital to address noticeable cracks promptly, as they could cause structural issues that impact the foundation of the building.

Addressing Sewer Issues
Our approach to repairing sewer lines varies depending on the problem at hand. Unlike other companies using invasive methods to repair sewer lines, we protect your property.
Trenchless sewer repair allows us to replace sewer lines without damaging your property. Unlike methods that require ripping up existing landscaping, this method is done by digging a small hole into the ground and inserting an inflatable pipe liner into the existing pipe. Not only does this method help you avoid damage, but it also is far more affordable than other sewer line repair options.
One method is pipe relining, which involves a deep cleaning the inside of the pipes and includes relining the interior. This remedy helps improve the sewer line's condition and may help address many common sewer line issues.
We may use a sewer line replacement approach for more severe sewer line problems. This method involves snaking a new pipe through the existing pipe and breaking apart the existing pipe. While this method is more involved, it is a suitable solution for moderate or severe sewer line problems.
While trenchless may not be an option for all homes, it is a great solution that can be used in many instances. Once your local plumbing team assesses the situation, they can advise on whether a trenchless or traditional option would best suit your repair or replacement.
