A sewage backup rising in a basement floor drain, repeated backups every time the washer runs, or a foul smell in the yard that won't go away — sewer line problems escalate fast and rarely resolve on their own. Our Chatham sewer team camera-inspects before recommending any repair.
We show you the actual condition of the line via camera before discussing repair versus replacement.
We evaluate whether trenchless lining is viable before defaulting to a full dig-up.
Sewer work in Chatham, IL requires specific licensing beyond general plumbing — our technicians carry it.
We treat active backups as emergencies, not routine scheduling.
These are the sewer line issues we see most across Chatham, IL, each requiring a different repair approach.
A waterproof camera is run the full length of the line to locate breaks, root intrusion, or bellied sections.
A resin liner is installed inside the damaged pipe, sealing cracks and root entry points without digging up the yard.
Root removal alone sometimes isn't enough if roots have already cracked the pipe — we check both.
Full replacement is reserved for lines beyond repair — we'll always explain why lining isn't viable first.
We prioritize stopping the active backup first, then diagnose the root cause afterward.
Recurring backups on an otherwise sound line often just need scheduled jetting to stay clear.
Describe the symptoms to dispatch — a single backup versus recurring issues changes how the visit is scheduled.
Our Chatham, IL sewer trucks carry both camera and clearing equipment for a single-visit diagnosis.
The line is camera-inspected, the cause identified, and you'll see the footage before a repair method is recommended.
We re-inspect after the repair to confirm the line is clear and intact, then back it with a warranty.
