Common Causes of Sewer Line Issues

A damaged or blocked sewer line can result from various factors, including:

  • Clogs & Blockages – Grease, hair, soap scum, and debris can accumulate and restrict water flow.
  • Tree Root Intrusion – Roots can grow into small cracks, expanding and causing severe blockages or pipe damage.
  • Pipe Corrosion & Deterioration – Older sewer lines made of cast iron or galvanized steel can corrode over time, weakening pipe walls.
  • Shifting Soil & Ground Settlement – Weather, construction, or natural shifts can crack or collapse pipes.
  • Extreme Temperature Changes – Freezing and thawing cycles cause pipes to expand, contract, and eventually break.

Recognizing these issues early can prevent costly repairs and extensive property damage! 

Comprehensive Sewer Line Repair Services

When sewer line problems arise, fast and effective repairs are essential to prevent further damage. At The Waterworks, we use state-of-the-art equipment to diagnose and repair sewer line issues efficiently.

Accurate Video Inspection Technology

Our high-resolution camera inspections allow us to:

  • Pinpoint blockages, cracks, and tree root intrusions
  • Detect collapsed sections to determine the best repair approach
  • Provide a clear view of your sewer system’s condition

This non-invasive diagnostic tool ensures we fix the problem at its source—without unnecessary digging.

Advanced Sewer Line Repair Methods

Depending on the issue, we use a variety of proven repair techniques:

  • Drain Augers & Snakes – Effective for breaking up minor clogs and restoring proper water flow.
  • Hydro-Jetting – Uses high-pressure water to remove grease, debris, and roots inside sewer lines.
  • Pipe Lining (Trenchless Repair) – A non-invasive solution that reinforces damaged pipes from the inside without excavation.
  • Pipe Bursting – A trenchless method that replaces severely damaged pipes with a new, durable sewer line while minimizing disruption.

By utilizing the latest repair techniques, we provide long-lasting solutions with minimal impact on your property.  

Sewer Line Replacement Services

In some cases, a full sewer line replacement is necessary if the damage is too severe for repairs. The Waterworks provides efficient, high-quality sewer line replacements using durable materials and industry-approved methods.

Great experience with Waterworks to tune up our AC this week. Tyler our technician showed up right on time, exactly when the company said he would - and he let us know he was on the way, which was very much appreciated. He was knowledgeable, personable, professional, and his communication skills are to be commended. Explained what he was working on every step of the way in a clear and easy way. The same goes for Garrett, the technician who showed up to work on the water heater. Overall, very pleased with the service and result. Prices are still a little high, but so far, worth it.

They were able to uncover a neighbor's shedding pine tree that was clogging up the condensing coils. I wasn't aware of this had to be addressed periodically to prevent problems. I am ever so glad for my annual maintenance plan ! Thanks JonLe , Larry Farwick

Omar came out to camera a drainage pipe for me. He was very nice and knowledgeable. He walked through everything he was doing, showed me the camera/ what he was seeing, and listened to my ideas about the busted pipe. We had good personal conversations and I hope to see him again soon. Omar was great!!

Hello! I'm a little late posting my review because life has been busy. Anyways. I came home from work to a VERY HOT house and immediately knew something was wrong. I contacted JonLe the next morning and they were very helpful, kind and were able to squeeze me in that same morning. Todd S. called to notify me that he was on his way and arrived a short time later. After looking over my unit and listening to my description of what was going on, he quickly diagnosed the issue and told me what part needed to be replaced, quoted me an affordable and reasonable price to repair and got to work. Todd saved the day for me. He stayed a few extra minutes longer to ensure my unit was working properly and that I was able to notice the cold air flowing out. He is absolutely amazing and I am eternally grateful for his assistance and hard work. Thank you, Todd and JonLe!!! They definitely get all five stars from me!

Lonnie did a fine jo diagnosing the problem and completing the repair. I especially liked the fact that WW was able to provide service much quicker than your competitors. I feel that whoever dispatches to the job site did not read the information I provided that the toilet was over a crawl space and a smaller stature plumber might be necessary. Fortunately everything was completed from above but things could have easily gone the other way.

Steve has been service person whom I always ask for. So he has been servicing my utilities for many years. He is excellent. I always know and feel confident that all will be well after he has done yearly maintenance. Staff whom I speak with to schedule appointments are always very helpful and cordial.
