Expert Sewer Services in Hillsborough

The most obvious sign that your sewer line needs repair is leaking waste in your yard. Apart from that, you should look out for frequent backups, slow drains throughout your house, unpleasant odors, unusually green or lush patches in your yard, or the sound of constantly running water. It is advisable to call a professional for inspection if you notice these issues.

As the name suggests, trenchless sewer repair is a method that doesn’t need extensive digging and disruption to your property to access the pipes. This technique reduces repair time, lowers costs, and creates minimal impact on your landscape compared to traditional excavation methods.

Yes, tree roots are a common cause of sewer line damage. In their search for water and nutrients, roots can infiltrate small cracks or joints in sewer pipes, eventually causing blockages or even breaking the pipe. We use high-definition cameras and advanced technology to check root intrusion and address any damage.

Hydro jetting is a method of cleaning sewer lines using high-pressure water jets and cleaning agents to remove blockages, buildup, and debris. It’s an effective maintenance technique to prevent clogs and backups and is often recommended when conventional snaking doesn’t resolve the issue.

We recommend having your sewer line inspected at least once every two years as a proactive maintenance remedy to identify and fix any issues early. However, properties with older pipes or those with a history of sewer problems may benefit from more frequent inspections.

Sewer emergencies, such as a major backup or overflow require prompt response to minimize damage and health risks. First, avoid using water in your home to prevent worsening the situation and call our emergency service immediately. We’re available 24/7 to respond to urgent sewer issues.

While chemical drain cleaners can offer a temporary fix for minor clogs, they’re generally not recommended for regular use. These chemicals can corrode pipes over time and may not effectively remove significant blockages. For persistent or recurring clogs, professional cleaning methods like hydro jetting are safer and more effective.

Preventing sewer line issues involves:

• Regular maintenance, such as inspections and cleaning
• Being mindful of what goes down your drains (avoid flushing anything besides toilet paper)
• Managing tree root growth near sewer lines.
