Many of our customers are surprised by how efficient and non-invasive trenchless repair can be.
Comprehensive Sewer Line Inspection Services
We begin with a thorough sewer line inspection to pinpoint the problem before recommending any repairs.
We use high-definition video camera inspections to locate blockages, damage, and weak points along your sewer line. The real-time footage allows us to accurately diagnose the issue and map its exact location.
Our process starts with a consultation and review of symptoms, followed by a full-length camera inspection. We assess the severity of the issue, explain your repair or replacement options, and provide a detailed written estimate.
Professional Sewer Line Cleaning Services
If your sewer line is clogged or slow, we offer advanced cleaning services that restore flow and reduce the risk of future backups.
High-Pressure Hydro Jetting: Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to remove grease, roots, and scale from inside your pipes. It’s safe for most materials and highly effective for both emergency and preventive maintenance.
Traditional Sewer Snaking: For simpler clogs, we use mechanical augers, which are ideal for localized obstructions and accessible problem areas.
Advanced Sewer Line Repair Services
Whether you need a spot repair or full replacement, we offer solutions tailored to your property, budget, and pipe condition.
Our trenchless methods require little to no digging. Depending on your system, we may recommend pipe relining, pipe bursting, or spot repairs. Pipe relining involves inserting a resin-coated liner that hardens inside the damaged pipe. Pipe bursting breaks apart the old line while pulling in a new one. Both are fast, durable, and preserve your landscaping.
For isolated damage, we offer spot repairs—fixing joints, replacing pipe sections, or correcting bellied pipes without replacing the whole line. A bellied pipe sags due to soil movement, creating a low spot where waste collects. Faulty joints can separate over time, leading to leaks and blockages.
When trenchless isn’t an option, we perform open-trench repairs. This is best for collapsed lines, major damage, or when a complete rebuild is needed to ensure proper slope, code compliance, and flow.
Emergency Sewer Repair Services
Sewer failures can’t wait. CaitCo provides 24/7 emergency response to stop leaks, set up temporary bypasses, and contain hazards. We stabilize the issue, coordinate repairs, and assist with cleanup.
If your sewer line is beyond repair, we handle full replacements using both trenchless and traditional methods.
We address tree root intrusion, corroded pipes, recurring blockages, ground shifting, and pipe collapse. Roots sneak in through joints or cracks, while aging materials like cast iron often corrode from the inside out. Our team quickly identifies the cause and recommends the right solution.
Watch for warning signs like multiple drain clogs, sewage odors, gurgling drains, yard wet spots, unusually lush grass, high water bills, or basement backups. These often signal a deeper sewer issue.
We serve both homeowners and businesses. Residential services focus on flexible scheduling and landscape preservation. Commercial services are built around large systems, with minimal-disruption scheduling and maintenance contracts available.
Routine inspections and scheduled hydro jetting can help you avoid costly repairs. We also educate customers on best practices, like avoiding grease disposal and flushing unsuitable items.
Inspections catch small problems early, and for commercial properties, maintenance plans prevent downtime and help meet safety standards.
We walk you through trenchless vs. traditional methods based on your property, goals, and budget. We also explain the impact on your yard, access points, and any structural constraints.
