Our Sewer Line Repair Process
We keep it simple: find the problem, explain it, fix it. Here is what happens when you call us for sewer line repair longview WA.
Tools and Methods We Use for Sewer Repair
Each method answers a different question. Together they leave very little to guess.
High-pressure water jetting clears grease, roots, and debris from sewer lines. It is safe for most pipe materials.
A drain snake or auger is used for smaller clogs. We use it when appropriate, but often prefer hydro-jetting for sewer lines.
For traditional repairs, we use a pipe cutter to remove damaged sections of PVC, ABS, or cast iron pipe.
Used for copper pipe repairs when we need to sweat fittings. We also use PEX crimping tools for PEX tubing.

How Sewer Line Repair Works in longview
Sewer line repair in longview comes with local challenges. Many homes were built before 1970 and still have clay tile or cast iron sewer lines. These materials are prone to root intrusion and cracking, especially with longview's wet winters and clay-heavy soil.
Downtown Longview
Older buildings with original clay sewer lines. We often use trenchless lining to avoid disrupting sidewalks and streets.
Pine Tree
Mature trees mean root intrusion is common. We use hydro-jetting and rooter service, then camera-inspect for damage.
Longview Heights
Hilly terrain can cause soil movement. We check for misaligned pipes and use pipe bursting when replacement is needed.

PhotoRoot Intrusion in Pine Tree
Before: A homeowner in Pine Tree noticed slow drains and gurgling toilets. A camera inspection revealed severe root intrusion in the clay sewer line, with roots blocking 70% of the pipe.
After: We hydro-jetted the line to clear roots, then installed a trenchless liner to seal cracks. The homeowner now has full flow and no more backups. The job took one day.
Collapsed Cast Iron in Downtown Longview
Before: A 1920s home in Downtown Longview had a collapsed cast iron sewer line. Sewage was backing up into the basement. The pipe was corroded and broken in two places.
After: We replaced the damaged section with PVC pipe using traditional open-cut repair. The new pipe is smooth and root-resistant. The basement is dry and the sewer flows properly.
Trenchless Replacement in Longview Heights
Before: A homeowner in Longview Heights had a failing clay sewer line with multiple cracks. Traditional repair would have required digging up a concrete driveway and mature landscaping.
After: We used pipe bursting to replace the entire line with HDPE pipe. The driveway and landscaping were untouched. The job was completed in two days.
