Backed-up, root-choked or collapsing sewer lines repaired or replaced in Bloomington, Normal and the surrounding McLean County towns.

Sewer Line Service

When the pipe connecting your house to the city sewer fails, wastewater has nowhere to go but back up through your lowest drains. Plenty of older Bloomington-area homes still rely on their original clay or cast-iron lateral. We diagnose, repair and replace sewer lines in Bloomington and nearby communities.

Finding the Real Cause

Roots, a collapsed section, a grease blockage and plain old age each leave different clues, and each has a different fix — sometimes a single section, sometimes the whole run. We figure out which one you're dealing with before suggesting anything.

Sewer Line FAQ

How do I know the sewer line is the problem?

Watch for more than one drain slowing down together, gurgling from toilets or tubs, a sewage smell, or a wet, sunken spot in the yard. If only one fixture is affected, drain cleaning is probably the better starting point.

Are sewer problems common in older homes here?

Yes. Clay and cast-iron laterals are widespread in older Bloomington-Normal houses, and over the decades roots work their way in and the pipe breaks down. A camera inspection shows exactly what's going on before any repair is quoted.

Will I need the entire line replaced?

Often you won't. Many sewer problems can be fixed by repairing only the damaged stretch of pipe. We'll show you what the inspection finds and what it calls for.
