Drains & Sewer
We find exactly where a sewer line has failed before recommending a fix. That means camera evidence first, then a repair scoped to what the pipe actually needs — not a guess.
Start with the symptom. We will handle the diagnosis.
The same clog keeps returning after cleaning.
A previous cleaning or inspection found roots.
Soggy yard, settling ground, or sudden backup.
A low spot confirmed or suspected in the line.
Clay, Orangeburg or older cast iron lines.
Documenting line condition before selling.
Repair makes sense when a camera inspection shows one identifiable problem in an otherwise sound line — a cracked joint, a section with root intrusion, or a localized belly — rather than deterioration spread across the whole run. Targeting the actual failure point instead of replacing the entire line keeps cost and disruption proportional to the actual problem.
We start with a camera run through the line to locate and confirm the specific issue, noting its distance and depth so we know exactly where to work. From there we explain what the footage shows in plain terms, along with the realistic repair options for that specific failure, before any work begins or any price is quoted.
When roots have entered through a crack or joint, the repair addresses that entry point directly rather than only cutting the roots back, since cutting alone tends to be a temporary fix. Depending on the extent of the damage at that point, that can mean a spot repair or, for a section with a lot of damage, replacing that portion of the line.
A cracked or offset joint lets soil and roots in and waste out, and is often fixable as a targeted repair at that location. A fully collapsed section, by contrast, usually cannot flow at all and needs that segment replaced rather than repaired. Which situation you have determines both the approach and the cost, and we confirm it with the camera rather than assuming.
Depending on the line's material, depth and the nature of the damage, a trenchless method may be available in place of a full excavation, which can reduce disruption to landscaping and hardscape above the line. Not every situation qualifies — the right method depends on the specific damage and location, which is part of what the camera inspection tells us.
Cost depends on whether the fix is a small spot repair or a longer section replacement, how deep and how far from access points the damaged section sits, what is above the line (driveway, landscaping, mature trees), the pipe material, and whether trenchless methods apply. We give a flat quote after the camera inspection shows the actual scope, not before.
Ask to see the camera footage yourself before agreeing to a repair scope. Seeing exactly where and how the line failed makes it easier to understand why a particular fix is being recommended.
Typical calls our technicians run from the Orem shop.
Orem
A common call: a home with a recurring backup traced by camera to a single cracked joint letting in roots. A targeted spot repair at that location resolved the recurring issue.
Utah County
A common call: a sudden, total sewer blockage. Camera inspection found a fully collapsed section of older pipe, which required replacing that segment rather than a repair.
Orem
A common call: a damaged section of line running beneath an established driveway. A trenchless method addressed the damage without removing the driveway.
864 N 1430 W in Orem — the same shop for every job we run in Utah County.
Water, heat and air under one roof, which matters when a problem crosses lines.
We find the cause before recommending work, so you are not paying for guesses.
When a repair still makes sense we say so, and when it does not we explain why.
We work from Orem outward, which keeps drive times short across the north end of Utah County and reasonable everywhere else we serve.
Call (801) 226-3033 or book online and we will camera the line before recommending any repair.
