No Leak Too Small, No Job Too Big
Most sewer line problems don’t start with a dramatic failure. The warning signs often build over time. You may notice slow drains across multiple fixtures, strange gurgling sounds when flushing, or strong sewage odors coming from your yard. In some cases, you might even see wet or sunken areas developing in your lawn.
Inside the house, recurring backups or frequent clogs in toilets and tubs that affect the whole house (not just one drain) usually point to a larger issue with the main sewer line. If these problems go unchecked, the pipe could collapse, leading to costly repairs, contaminated water, and damage to your foundation or landscaping.
At Alpha Plumbing, we use sewer camera inspections to locate and identify sewer line issues with precision. This allows us to see exactly where the problem is and what’s causing it—whether it’s roots, a break in the pipe, buildup, or a complete collapse.
This diagnostic approach eliminates the guesswork. You don’t have to deal with unnecessary digging or delays. Once we have a clear picture of the problem, we explain your options and guide you through the repair or replacement process step-by-step.
When possible, we offer trenchless sewer repair methods that eliminate the need to tear up your yard. These technologies are ideal for many types of repairs and replacements, especially in cases where the damage is isolated or the surrounding property is difficult to access.
Techniques like pipe bursting and pipe lining allow us to either replace or rehabilitate the damaged section without a full excavation. These methods can often be completed faster, with less labor, and with lower overall disruption to your home or business. In many cases, trenchless options also cost less than traditional methods once you factor in yard restoration.
One of the biggest benefits of calling Alpha Plumbing for sewer line repair is our focus on long-term solutions. We don’t just patch a leak and move on. We look at the full health of your system and offer solutions that help you avoid recurring issues.
This may involve recommending a different pipe material, adjusting slope and flow, or installing clean-outs for easier future access. We also offer periodic sewer camera inspections as part of maintenance for older homes or homes with known tree root intrusion.
Sewer line repairs begin with a thorough inspection, followed by a clear explanation of your options. If we can perform a trenchless repair, we’ll prepare the access points and begin the repair through minimal entry points. If a full replacement is needed, we carefully plan the excavation to minimize damage and work efficiently to complete the project as fast as possible.
We handle permitting, inspections, and compliance with Lexington plumbing codes, so you don’t have to worry about paperwork or legal issues. Once the work is complete, we test the system and clean up the area thoroughly.
