Repair or replace? The camera decides

Not every sewer problem needs full replacement. Minor blockages and root intrusion respond to hydro jetting or mechanical removal, often with a lining treatment to prevent regrowth. Small cracks and joint separation can be sealed from the inside with trenchless CIPP lining — no excavation. Moderate damage over a short section suits a spot repair or pipe bursting.

Full replacement with new PVC is the reliable long-term answer only when older clay or cast iron lines are failing throughout. We show you the camera footage, explain the options, and let you make an informed decision — no pressure, no upselling.

Local lines, local crew

Founded in 2000, we've worked Katy's sewer infrastructure through every stage of Houston-area growth — we know the local soil conditions, the age of the housing stock, and the most common failures in your neighborhood, whether that's a newer Fulshear subdivision or an older established street in central Katy.

Our trucks are stocked and our plumbers are local, so you're not waiting half a day for someone to cross the city. Every job gets a full upfront estimate before work begins.

What we handle

Camera Diagnostics

Professional-grade sewer cameras pinpoint the exact location and cause before any digging begins — saving time, money and your landscaping.

Cleaning & Hydro Jetting

Heavy grease, tree roots and debris blasted away with high-pressure water — full flow restored without chemicals.

Trenchless Repair

Pipe lining (CIPP) and pipe bursting repair or replace the line with minimal excavation — no tearing up your yard, driveway or landscaping.

Full Replacement

When a section is collapsed or root-destroyed beyond repair, we excavate and replace with durable PVC pipe.

Tree roots are one of the most common sewer failures in older Katy-area homes — we remove them and treat the line to prevent regrowth.

Emergency Sewer Service

Backups, overflows and collapsed lines don't keep business hours. We answer 24/7.

Can my sewer line be fixed without digging up the yard?

Often, yes. Trenchless pipe lining (CIPP) seals cracks and reinforces the pipe from the inside, and pipe bursting replaces a line through its own path — both with minimal excavation. The camera inspection tells us whether your line qualifies.

How do I know if the problem is my sewer line or just a clog?

One slow fixture is usually a clog. Multiple slow drains at once, gurgling, or sewage odors point at the main line. A camera inspection settles it definitively — and you see the footage yourself.

Is a sewage backup an emergency?

Yes. Sewage coming up through toilets, tubs or floor drains is a health hazard — stop using water and call immediately. We answer 24/7 for sewer emergencies across the Katy area.

What causes sewer lines to fail in Katy?

Tree root intrusion is the most common cause in older neighborhoods, alongside shifting clay soil, grease buildup, and aging clay or cast iron pipe reaching end of life. The camera inspection identifies which one you're dealing with.

Do you replace the whole line or just the damaged section?

Whichever the footage justifies. Spot repairs and short-section pipe bursting handle localized damage; full PVC replacement is reserved for lines failing throughout. We recommend the most cost-effective option and show you why.
