Fast, polite, and they put down drop cloths without being asked. Small thing, but it tells you how the rest of the job is going to go.

Sewer Line Repair & Replacement in Grimes, Iowa
Older Grimes neighbourhoods are largely clay tile or cast iron under the front yard, and both fail predictably. Clay lets roots in at every joint. Cast iron scales shut from the inside and eventually cracks along the bottom. We camera the run, find the failure, and tell you whether it can be lined from inside or has to come up.
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 Grimes 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.

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 Grimes: 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 Grimes?
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 Grimes 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.
Do you charge extra for nights and weekends in Grimes?
No. A call at 2am on a Sunday costs the same as the same job at 2pm on a Wednesday. No overtime rate, no holiday surcharge, no emergency premium.
