Root intrusion, a bellied line, or a collapsed section of pipe all present differently, and our Bay City, MI 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.
Pipe lining can often repair a damaged sewer line without full excavation of your yard or driveway.
Sewer work in Bay City, MI requires specific licensing beyond general plumbing — our technicians carry it.
A sewage backup gets priority dispatch since it's both a health concern and an active property damage risk.
These are the sewer line issues we see most across Bay City, MI, each requiring a different repair approach.
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.
Root removal alone sometimes isn't enough if roots have already cracked the pipe — we check both.
Full replacement is reserved for lines beyond repair — we'll always explain why lining isn't viable first.
We prioritize stopping the active backup first, then diagnose the root cause afterward.
Recurring backups on an otherwise sound line often just need scheduled jetting to stay clear.

The repair is completed and camera-verified afterward, backed by a written warranty on the work.
