Why Sewer Line Maintenance Makes a Big Difference
Sewer lines handle all the wastewater that leaves your home. Over time, debris, grease, and even tree roots can build up inside those pipes. Left unchecked, that buildup leads to slow drains, bad smells, or even sewage backing up into your home.
That’s where sewer maintenance comes in. With regular inspections and cleanings, we can catch small issues before they turn into emergencies. It’s one of the smartest ways to protect your home and your budget.
We use high-resolution camera inspections to get a clear picture of what’s happening inside your pipes. If we see anything that doesn’t belong—roots, cracks, blockages—we’ll talk it through with you and take the right next steps.
What Our Sewer Maintenance Service Includes
When you schedule sewer maintenance with us, it’s not just a quick look and a guess. Our process is thorough, thoughtful, and based on years of real-world plumbing experience.
We usually start with a video inspection. This lets us see exactly what’s happening underground without digging anything up. It’s quick, clean, and gives you answers in real time.
If your pipes are clear, great—you get peace of mind and a clean bill of health. If we see buildup or early signs of trouble, we can use advanced cleaning tools, such as high-pressure jetting, to remove debris and restore proper flow.
No guesswork. No scare tactics. Just honest service you can trust.
Who Benefits from Routine Sewer Line Checks?
Sewer issues can affect any home, but we’ve found regular maintenance is especially helpful if:
- Your home is older, or has clay or cast iron pipes
- You’ve had clogs or backups before
- There are large trees near your sewer line
- You have a busy household that puts more demand on the system
We’ll never recommend something you don’t need. If everything looks great, we’ll tell you. If we spot a potential issue, we’ll walk you through the options and help you make the right call.

Sewer Maintenance FAQs
We recommend scheduling sewer line inspections and maintenance at least once a year, especially if your home is older, has clay or cast iron pipes, or is located near large trees. Over time, tree roots, grease buildup, and sediment buildup can interfere with proper sewer flow—leading to slow drains, foul odors, or even backups into your home. An annual check gives us a chance to spot and clean minor blockages before they grow into costly issues.
Some homes may benefit from more frequent maintenance—maybe every 6–9 months—particularly if you've experienced recurring clogs or backups in the past. When we perform our annual (or semi-annual) service, we include camera inspection and jet-cleaning that reveal hidden blockages and restore flow throughout the line. This keeps your system running smoothly and saves you from surprise repairs and disruptions.
No—and that’s one of the advantages of our process. We begin every maintenance call with a high-resolution camera inspection, which allows us to accurately assess your sewer line's condition without disturbing your yard or property. Once we’ve inspected underground footage, we can decide whether cleaning is sufficient or if further repair is necessary—only then do we involve excavation.
When cleaning is all that's needed, we use non-invasive methods like hydro-jetting to remove buildup and restore optimal flow. This approach lets us address issues efficiently, without tearing up your lawn or driveway. We only dig—by request or necessity—if the camera reveals cracks, offset pipes, or significant root intrusion that can't be solved with cleaning alone.
If our camera inspection detects damage—such as root encroachment, cracks, or structural issues—we walk you through what we’re seeing and provide clear, honest advice on your available options. In many cases, trenchless repairs like pipe lining can restore integrity without full excavation, saving time and minimizing disruption. We explain both trenchless and open-cut options, along with associated costs and long-term benefits.
If excavation is necessary, we always use the camera footage to target the repair zone precisely, minimizing the area that needs to be opened. We'll handle the digging, repair, backfill, and restoration—all while complying with local codes and ensuring your landscaping is returned to its original condition. We stay with you through every step—from diagnosis to cleanup—so you feel confident and informed throughout the process.
