Signs it's the line, not the drain
- More than one fixture backing up or gurgling
- Waste appearing in the lowest shower or tub when a toilet flushes
- Sewage smells inside or in the yard
- A patch of lawn that's greener or soggier than the rest
- Repeat blockages in the same place
What we do
- 01
Work out whether it's a blockage, roots or a broken line
- 02
Clear what can be cleared and check the line runs
- 03
Repair or replace the damaged section where that's the real fault
- 04
Put the ground back the way we found it
What decides the price
Depth, length, what's above the line, and whether it's a clear-and-check or a dig-and-replace. We find out which before quoting. We give the estimate in person, once we’ve seen the job.

Answers
Sewer line repair: questions and answers
What are the signs of a sewer line problem?
Backups in more than one fixture, drains slowing together, sewage smells inside or in the yard, and repeat clogs in the same spot. Call before it gets worse, because sewer problems don't improve on their own.
Do roots really get into pipes here?
Yes. Desert trees chase water, and a joint with a small leak is exactly what they find. It's a common cause of the repeat blockage nobody can explain.
Does the yard have to be dug up?
Not necessarily, and not until we know it's needed. Where digging is the answer, we keep it to the section that's failed.
