Camera Inspection
We run a camera through your sewer or drain line and watch the video as it goes. That shows the break, the roots, the sag or the offset joint, and where it sits in the yard.

Sewer line repair starts with finding where the pipe failed. A yard that stays wet over the line is one sign. So is a drain that backs up again a week after it was cleared. We start with a sewer camera inspection, mark the spot, then dig only where the pipe is broken.
On a septic property that same line runs from the house to the tank. On city sewer it runs to the main, and the pipe from the main to your house belongs to you. We bring 20 years of septic and sewer experience to this work. Estimates are free across the north side of the Nashville area.

A sewer backup usually shows up at the lowest drain in the house. A floor drain or a downstairs tub fills when the washing machine runs. That points at the main line rather than one fixture. A single slow sink is a fixture problem.
Some main line clogs clear with a cable machine and professional drain cleaning equipment. Sewer cleaning works when the pipe itself is sound. If the same line plugs again a few weeks later, the pipe has damage a cable cannot fix. That is where rooter service stops and pipe work starts.
Roots are the usual reason. They find a cracked joint, grow into the pipe, and rebuild the same blockage every season. Clay pipe is brittle and cracks, and it became less common in the United States after 1972. Cast iron rusts from the inside until the walls scale over and the flow chokes down.
A camera and a locator tell us how much pipe is bad. If one section is crushed or a joint is offset, we open a short trench and replace it. The rest of the line stays in the ground. That is a spot repair, and it fits when the pipe around the break is still solid.
Full sewer line replacement makes sense when the pipe fails in more than one place. Old clay with roots at every joint keeps coming back, and a line on the wrong fall will belly again. In that case we pull the old pipe and lay a new run at a steady grade. Grade gets checked with a level right in the trench.
On a septic property the same rules apply to the line running out to the tank. A broken or bellied house to tank line sends solids where they do not belong. We fix the line and check the tank connection while the trench is open. If the trouble turns out to be inside the tank, that becomes repair work on the tank side.
Plenty of properties north of Nashville have the tank or the city main across a road. Getting a line over there means cutting the pavement. Our crew does that part of the work itself. Before anything opens, the buried utilities get marked through the free 811 locate service.
We saw the asphalt in a clean line so the patch has a straight edge to sit against. The trench goes across, the pipe is set on grade, and the bedding is packed around it. Then the base goes back in lifts, packed with a plate compactor so the road does not sink later.
Asphalt goes back over the compacted base and gets rolled flat with the surface around it. Work inside a public road needs the sign off of whoever owns it, the city or the county highway department. We tell you which office that is before the saw comes out.

(629) 285-6381From the first call or text to the finished property, here is how it goes.
Reach us at (629) 285-6381 and describe what the system is doing. Photos help, and you can text them to the same number.
We come out, open the lids and check the tank, the pump and the field. On a drain problem we check the lines instead.
We tell you what is wrong, what the fix involves and what it costs. The estimate is free, and you decide on your own timeline.
Our own machines dig the trench, set the tank and pull the old line. We backfill, grade the ground back and clean up the site.
Before we leave we show you what changed and where the lids and cleanouts sit. You get a plain description of what to watch from here.

We clear clogged drains, toilets, tubs, kitchen lines and main lines with cable machines sized to the pipe. On septic homes we can tell you whether the clog is in the line or the tank is full.

New septic systems for new builds and replacement tanks when an old one gives out. We dig with our own equipment, set the precast concrete tank, plumb it, and tie it into the drain field.

We are licensed, insured and bonded. You can ask for that paperwork before we start, and we will send it.
We set new tanks and rebuild drain fields. We also clear clogged drains and replace sewer lines, so one call covers both.
