Sewer Repairs FAQs

Common questions about our Sewer Repairs services

Several signs indicate sewer line problems: sewage backing up into drains, persistent foul odors, gurgling sounds from toilets, or wet spots in your yard with sewage smell. We use video inspection to see inside your pipes and determine whether cleaning, repair, or replacement is needed. Minor cracks and root intrusion can often be repaired, while severely damaged or collapsed pipes need replacement. The video inspection shows exactly what’s happening so you can make an informed decision about the best solution.
Traditional repair requires digging a trench along the entire damaged pipe, which destroys landscaping, driveways, and sidewalks. Trenchless repair uses small access points to repair or replace pipes underground without major excavation. We can either line the existing pipe with new material or pull new pipe through the old one. Trenchless costs more upfront but saves money on restoration and landscaping replacement. It’s also much faster – usually completed in one day instead of several days of digging and restoration work.
Modern sewer repairs using quality materials typically last 50+ years. Traditional clay pipes and cast iron eventually fail due to Chicago’s soil conditions and age, but new PVC and specialized lining materials resist root intrusion, corrosion, and cracking. The longevity depends on soil conditions, proper installation, and maintenance. We warranty our repair work and use materials designed to outlast the original pipes. Regular maintenance like hydro jetting every few years helps prevent new problems and extends the life of any sewer system.
Yes, we specialize in minimizing business disruption during commercial sewer repairs. We schedule work during off-hours when possible, use trenchless methods to avoid blocking customer access, and work in sections to keep part of your facility operational. For restaurants and businesses that can’t shut down completely, we coordinate temporary solutions while repairs are completed. Our goal is getting your business back to normal as quickly as possible while ensuring the repair work is done properly and won’t cause future problems.
Chicago’s older neighborhoods have sewer lines installed 50+ years ago using clay tiles and cast iron that weren’t designed to last forever. Clay pipes crack from ground movement and tree root intrusion, while cast iron corrodes from the inside out. Chicago’s freeze-thaw cycles put additional stress on underground pipes. Tree roots are particularly aggressive here, growing into any small crack or joint to access water and nutrients. Heavy rains can also overwhelm damaged systems that were adequate when installed but can’t handle today’s water volume.
Sewer repair costs vary widely based on the problem’s severity, repair method, and accessibility. Simple repairs might cost a few thousand dollars, while complete line replacement can cost significantly more. Trenchless methods cost more upfront but save money on landscaping restoration. Emergency repairs typically cost more than scheduled work. We provide upfront pricing after video inspection shows exactly what needs fixing. Most homeowners find that investing in proper repair saves money long-term compared to repeated temporary fixes that don’t address the root problem.
