In Antelope, the most common sewer issues stem from tree root intrusion and aging infrastructure. Sacramento County’s mature trees naturally seek water sources, and sewer lines provide exactly that.
Roots can infiltrate even small cracks in pipes, eventually causing major blockages or pipe damage. Additionally, many homes in the area have older clay or cast iron sewer lines that become more susceptible to problems over time.
We also see issues from improper disposal of grease, wipes, and other materials that shouldn’t go down drains. Our camera inspections quickly identify whether your problem is roots, deteriorated pipes, or blockages, so we can provide the most effective solution.
Yes, we specialize in trenchless sewer repair methods that preserve your landscaping and minimize disruption to your property. These techniques allow us to repair or replace sewer lines without extensive excavation.
Trenchless options include pipe lining, where we insert a new liner into the existing pipe, and pipe bursting, where we replace the old pipe by pulling a new one through it. Both methods require only small access points rather than digging a trench across your yard.
Not every situation is suitable for trenchless repair, but when possible, it saves you the cost and hassle of landscape restoration while providing a long-lasting solution to your sewer problems.
Sewer repair costs vary significantly depending on the specific problem and repair method needed. Simple drain cleaning might cost a few hundred dollars, while full sewer line replacement can cost several thousand.
We provide transparent, upfront pricing after our camera inspection reveals exactly what needs to be done. You’ll know the cost before any work begins, and we often find that our final bill is actually lower than our initial estimate.
Factors affecting cost include the extent of damage, accessibility of your sewer line, repair method chosen, and whether any landscaping restoration is needed. We’ll explain all these factors and help you choose the most cost-effective solution for your situation.
Several warning signs indicate you need professional sewer repair. Multiple drains backing up simultaneously, gurgling sounds from toilets or drains, and persistent sewage odors are clear indicators of sewer line problems.
You might also notice unusually green patches in your yard where sewage is leaking underground, or water backing up in floor drains or lower-level fixtures. Slow drainage throughout your home, rather than just one fixture, typically points to main sewer line issues.
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, don’t wait for the problem to worsen. Early intervention with professional camera inspection and repair typically costs much less than dealing with a complete sewer line failure or sewage backup in your home.
Our sewer camera inspection provides a complete visual assessment of your sewer line’s condition. We insert a high-resolution, waterproof camera through your cleanout to examine the entire length of your sewer pipe.
You’ll see the live footage as we conduct the inspection, and we’ll explain exactly what we’re seeing – whether that’s root intrusion, pipe deterioration, blockages, or structural problems. We can pinpoint the exact location and nature of any issues.
The inspection includes a detailed explanation of your repair options, from simple cleaning to partial repair to full replacement. This eliminates guesswork and ensures you get exactly the service you need. There’s no charge for the camera inspection when you proceed with our recommended repairs.
