What We Do
Emergency Sewer & Drain Services in San Diego County
From a midnight sewage backup to a full trenchless sewer line replacement, one local team handles diagnosis, repair, and cleanup.
Trenchless Sewer Repair
Cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining rebuilds your sewer from the inside — no trench across the yard.
- Seamless, jointless pipe-within-a-pipe
- 50-year rated, corrosion resistant
- Most jobs finished in a single day
Sewer Line Replacement
Pipe bursting pulls a new HDPE line through the old path when the existing pipe is too far gone to line.
- Full lateral replacement, house to main
- Minimal digging — two small access pits
- Permits and city coordination handled
Drain Cleaning & Hydro Jetting
High-pressure water jetting clears grease, sludge, and scale and restores the pipe to full diameter.
- Kitchen, laundry, and main-line stoppages
- Grease and hardened scale removal
- Safe for older clay and cast-iron pipe
Video Camera Inspections
A self-leveling sewer camera locates the exact break, root intrusion, or belly — on video, with footage.
- Pinpoint depth & location marking
- Pre-purchase & real-estate inspections
- Included with any approved repair
Root Removal & Descaling
Mechanical cutting and chain descaling remove root balls and tuberculation before lining or bursting.
- Root intrusion cut-out
- Cast-iron descaling & prep
- Preventive maintenance plans

How It Works
Our 3-Step Trenchless Sewer Repair Process
Three steps from diagnosis to a warrantied repair — usually without tearing up your landscaping.
-
1Camera Diagnosis & Locating
A self-leveling sewer camera pinpoints the break, root intrusion, belly, or collapse and marks its exact depth. You then get a clear, upfront flat-rate estimate before any work begins.
-
2Trenchless Pipe Lining or Bursting
We rehabilitate the line with cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining, or pull a new pipe through the old path with pipe bursting — using one or two small access points instead of a trench across your yard.
-
3Restored, Tested & Cleaned
A post-repair camera pass confirms full flow, access points are backfilled and tidied, and your repair is backed in writing by our workmanship warranty.

Local Reviews
What Local Homeowners Say
“Called at 11pm with sewage backing up into the shower. A tech was here within the hour, camera’d the line, and had the blockage cleared the same night. Fair flat price.”
— Denise R. (Pacific Beach), Verified Customer
“They lined our collapsed clay sewer line without digging up the front yard. Two small holes, done in a day, and the camera walkthrough at the end was reassuring.”
— Marcus T. (Clairemont), Verified Customer
“Honest crew. The first quote I got said full replacement; these guys showed me on video it just needed root cutting and a spot repair. Saved us thousands.”

Good to Know
San Diego Sewer Line Repair Frequently Asked Questions
How much does sewer line repair near me cost?
Spot repairs typically start in the low four figures, while full trenchless sewer line replacement runs higher depending on length, depth, and access. You get an upfront flat-rate estimate in writing after a diagnostic camera inspection, so the price is fixed before any digging starts.
Is trenchless sewer repair better than digging up my yard?
In most cases, yes. Trenchless sewer repair rehabilitates or replaces the line through one or two small access points, so your landscaping, driveway, and hardscape stay intact and the job finishes faster. We’ll tell you honestly if the pipe condition rules trenchless out.
How fast can you get to my home for an emergency?
We dispatch 24/7 and aim to have an experienced technician at local addresses within about 60 minutes for active sewage backups and overflows.
Do you provide upfront pricing and a diagnostic camera inspection?
Yes. You receive an upfront flat-rate estimate in writing, and a comprehensive diagnostic camera inspection is included with any approved repair.
Is trenchless pipe lining as durable as new pipe?
Cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining creates a seamless, jointless pipe-within-a-pipe that is corrosion resistant and rated for a 50-year service life.
Do you repair both residential and commercial sewer lines?
Yes. Our crews handle single-family homes, multi-unit buildings, HOAs, restaurants, and commercial properties.
