A BIG THANKS goes out to Chris for having the confidence in us to tackle a tough sewer repair. Chris' sewer exits the house on the side, between the two houses, leaving very little space for a 9' excavation. We did what we could with the excavator, then hand dug the rest. We were able to install some 4" outside cleanouts at this broken spot, giving us a much better access for future cleanings.

A Big Thanks goes out to Dan for having the confidence in us to repair a broken sewer line. Dan's sewer has had several backups and many different companies have tried to clean it out, but the offset hub keeps filling with roots. The rest of the pipe looks pretty good. We pinpointed the exact location of this bad hub, excavated a section of street, and repaired the spot, saving thousands over a full replacement.

A BIG THANKS goes out to Jeff for having the confidence in us to repair a problem sewer line. This duplex rental has been out of service for several days, others have tried to clear it but have failed. We located the pipe, installed some 4" outside cleanouts, and then we were able to easily clean out the rest of the pipe. We then scoped the remainder of the pipe to find that the tap is broken at the city connection. That repair will wait for another day. For now, the tenants are able to use the plumbing like normal.

A BIG THANKS goes out to the Jack Kennedy Brokerage for their continued confidence in us to repair all of their sewer and drain problems. This home has undergone a major remodeling for resale. Unfortunately, the contractors were sloppy and allowed construction debris to fill up the main sewer pipe and thin set mortar hardened in the shower drains. No amount of cleaning could penetrate the amount of garbage that was flushed down the toilet. We cut out @ 16' of cast iron sewer pipe from under the house, installed new ABS pipe with a new cleanout access, then were able to clean the remainder of the sewer system.

Hans has been dealing with sewer flooding for quite some time. It turns out that his service pipe is @ 145' away from the City sewer and the only access is through the stool.
We located the pipe outside the house and installed a new 4" cleanout access so that we can now clean out the roots all the way to the city main.

A BIG THANKS goes out to Blake from North Valley Bank for having the confidence in us to tackle a tricky sewer main problem. The Cherry Meadows project was put on hold several years ago and has since then flooded the sanitary sewer system with ground water and heavy sludge. The original test plugs were still in place causing any infiltration to flood up to 1500' of sewer main pipe. We were able to pump out @ 75% of the water, then we had to pull an 8" test plug under tremendous head pressures. Once the flood water was removed we were then able to do a complete power jetting of the pipes, then install a new mechanical plug at the manhole in the street.
