Root intrusion, a bellied line, or a collapsed section of pipe all present differently, and our Scottsville, VA technicians diagnose the actual cause before quoting a fix — not just clear the immediate backup and move on.
We show you the actual condition of the line via camera before discussing repair versus replacement.
We evaluate whether trenchless lining is viable before defaulting to a full dig-up.
Sewer work in Scottsville, VA requires specific licensing beyond general plumbing — our technicians carry it.
We treat active backups as emergencies, not routine scheduling.
From a first-time backup to a sewer line that's collapsed and needs full replacement, we diagnose before recommending the scope of repair.
A waterproof camera is run the full length of the line to locate breaks, root intrusion, or bellied sections.
Lining is often viable for cracked or root-damaged pipe that hasn't fully collapsed.
A root-cutting head clears the blockage, then the line is reassessed for structural damage the roots may have caused.
When a section has collapsed or is too damaged for lining, we replace it, minimizing excavation to the affected section where possible.
We prioritize stopping the active backup first, then diagnose the root cause afterward.
A maintenance plan on a problem main line can prevent repeat emergency calls.
