Camera inspection
We feed a camera along the line and it shows a clog, a crack or a root. The problem is pinned down before any digging begins.
Sewer Line Repair in Troy
A sewer line problem shows up as slow drains in several rooms, gurgling, or a wet patch in the yard. We inspect the line with a camera and fix what we find.
Sewer work covers Troy and six other towns.
Sewer line options
Clearing roots
Where a sewer pipe has joints or cracks, roots can grow in through them. We cut the roots out and give you our read on whether the pipe holds up or needs work.
Repairing one section
If the damage is confined to a short stretch, we dig down to it and replace just that section.
Replacing the lateral
If the pipe is broken in several spots or worn out, we replace all of it, from the house wall out to the street connection.
Troy’s public sewer permit
Troy has a Sewer Permit Application of its own, separate from the plumbing permit, and it is available through Building Inspections.
City code requires a written permit from the Building Inspector before anyone uncovers, connects to, opens into or alters a public sewer. Michigan issues plumbing permits to licensed contractors, or to homeowners doing their own plumbing.
How old is your line?
Troy’s homes split around 1977: half were built in or before that year, and more than 60 percent predate 1980. If never replaced, a sewer line laid with a 1977 house is about 49 years old today. Our sewer line age checker begins from that median year.
For a fresh clog, book a drain cleaning visit. For supply lines, ask about repiping. For anything else, the homepage lists our work.
