Our Sewer Line Repair Services
Video Sewer Line Inspection Services in Utah County
Before any repair work begins, we need to see exactly what's happening in your sewer line. Our video inspection service uses specialized cameras to identify blockages, cracks, root intrusion, and pipe deterioration without any guesswork. This technology saves you time and money by pinpointing the exact problem location and severity. We'll show you the footage and explain what we found, giving you the complete picture before discussing repair options. This approach connects directly to our drain and sewer services and helps determine if you need targeted repairs or more comprehensive solutions.
Trenchless Water Line Replacement Services in Utah County
When your sewer line is beyond repair, trenchless replacement offers a modern solution that minimizes disruption to your property. This method allows us to replace damaged pipes without extensive digging, preserving your landscaping, driveways, and walkways. The process is faster than traditional excavation and often more cost-effective when you factor in restoration costs. We'll evaluate whether your situation is suitable for trenchless methods and explain how the process works for your specific property. This service complements our general plumbing services by offering advanced solutions for complex underground repairs.
Sewer Ejector Pump Installation and Repair in Utah County
Homes with basement bathrooms or laundry rooms below the main sewer line rely on ejector pumps to move wastewater upward to the municipal system.

Our work includes proper basin installation, float switch calibration, and backup power options where needed. Regular maintenance of these systems prevents emergency failures and extends pump life significantly.

Sewer Line Repair FAQs
How do I know if my sewer line needs repair or replacement?
The extent of damage determines whether repair or replacement is the better choice. Multiple drain backups, sewage odors in your yard, soft spots in the lawn above the sewer line, and older cast iron or clay pipes often indicate replacement needs. We use video inspection to show you the actual condition inside your pipes, then explain whether spot repairs will solve the problem long-term or if replacement makes more sense for your situation and budget.
What causes sewer lines to fail in Utah County?
Tree root intrusion is the most common cause, especially in older neighborhoods with mature landscaping. Clay and cast iron pipes installed decades ago are also reaching the end of their lifespan and developing cracks or complete breaks. Ground shifting from Utah's freeze-thaw cycles, improper installation, and normal wear from years of use all contribute to sewer line problems. Areas like Salt Lake City and Sandy with older infrastructure see these issues regularly.
How long does sewer line repair take?
Simple spot repairs might take a few hours, while full line replacement can take one to three days depending on length and complexity. Trenchless replacement is typically faster than traditional excavation methods. Weather, soil conditions, and permit requirements can affect timing. We'll give you a realistic timeline during our initial assessment and keep you updated throughout the process so you can plan accordingly.
Will sewer line repair damage my landscaping?
Traditional excavation does require digging, but we minimize landscape damage by carefully planning our approach and restoring disturbed areas. Trenchless repair methods significantly reduce digging and preserve most of your yard, driveways, and walkways. We'll discuss which method works best for your specific situation and property layout. Many homeowners in areas like West Jordan and Riverton choose trenchless options to protect mature landscaping.
Can I prevent future sewer line problems?
Regular maintenance and smart habits can extend your sewer line's life significantly. Avoid flushing anything other than toilet paper and waste, don't pour grease down drains, and consider periodic root treatment if you have large trees near your sewer line. Annual video inspections catch small problems before they become expensive emergencies. We'll recommend a maintenance schedule based on your pipe material, age, and local conditions after completing your repair.
What should I do if my sewer line backs up?
Stop using water immediately to prevent further backup and potential property damage. Don't try to clear the blockage with chemical drain cleaners, which can damage pipes and create dangerous conditions. Contact us for emergency service—we're available for urgent situations that can't wait. If sewage backs up into your home, prioritize safety and avoid contact with contaminated water. Our emergency services are designed to handle these urgent situations quickly and safely.
