Services
Sewer line repair
Our sewer line repair service addresses cracked pipes, root intrusion, and system failures using traditional excavation and modern trenchless methods. We begin with camera inspections to pinpoint issues before implementing durable PVC pipe replacements. Our MHIC-licensed team handles both emergency repairs and scheduled replacements, offering transparent pricing starting at $6,500 while preserving property landscapes whenever possible.
Drain cleaning
Professional drain cleaning removes blockages using advanced cable machines and high-pressure jetting systems. Our technicians start with diagnostic inspections to determine optimal cleaning methods, offering both immediate solutions for backups and preventive maintenance plans. Competitive pricing begins at $375, including camera inspection to verify clearance and identify potential future issues.
Camera inspection
Video camera inspections provide precise diagnostics for sewer, drain, and septic systems. Our specialized equipment locates blockages, cracks, and root intrusion with depth measurements accurate within two feet. This non-invasive service starts at $300 and includes detailed reporting to guide repair decisions while avoiding unnecessary excavation.
Trenchless repair
Trenchless pipe repair minimizes property disruption through pipe bursting and cured-in-place lining technologies. We assess suitability based on pipe material and damage extent before implementing these premium solutions. While requiring specialized equipment, trenchless methods often prove cost-effective for extensive repairs by eliminating landscape restoration expenses.
Septic system repair
We service septic tanks, drain fields, and distribution boxes for properties not connected to municipal sewers. Our licensed technicians diagnose failing systems through visual inspections and soil testing, offering tank repairs, drain field rejuvenation, and code-compliant replacements. Regular maintenance plans help prevent costly emergencies in older septic systems.
