Main water line between the meter and the house had a leak. They located it, replaced the run, and got the yard back to reasonable. No complaints at all.

Sewer Line Repair & Replacement in Clive, Iowa
Sewer work is the one plumbing job where homeowners get taken advantage of most often, so we do it backwards from the usual: camera first, footage shown to you on the screen, then options. Plenty of Clive lines that get quoted for full replacement actually need a root cut and a liner over one bad joint.
Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

Grease is the leading cause of kitchen line calls
Most of the kitchen drains we cable in Clive are lined with cooled grease rather than blocked by any single object. It goes down warm and sets on the pipe wall a few feet along. Once that layer is thick enough, one bowl of rice finishes the job.

Clive customers on our sewer line repair work

They replaced our old tank with a tankless unit and actually upsized the gas line to do it properly. The previous quote we had did not mention the gas line at all, which I now understand would have been a problem.

They came out to a rental I own after hours because the tenant had no water. Kept me updated by phone the whole time even though I was three hours away.

Sewer Line Repair in Clive: common questions
How do I know if my sewer line needs repair or just cleaning?
The camera decides it. If the pipe is sound and roots or grease are the problem, cleaning is enough. If it is offset, bellied or cracked, cleaning buys months and then you are back. We show you the footage either way.
Is trenchless sewer repair available in Clive?
In many cases yes - it depends on the pipe's condition and the layout of the run. Lining and pipe bursting can save a driveway or a mature tree. If your Clive line cannot take a liner we will say so rather than sell it anyway.
How long does sewer line replacement take?
A trenchless job is often one day. An open-cut replacement usually runs one to three days depending on depth, length and what is on top of it. We give you a schedule up front.
Does homeowners insurance cover a sewer line?
The line itself usually is not covered, though resulting water damage sometimes is, and some policies offer a service line rider. Check your policy - we can supply the camera footage and a written report for a claim.
