Sewer Line Repair Near Brea, California
Sewer Line Repair Near Brea, California
Fix the real cause of backups — not just the symptom.
We start with a sewer camera inspection to see what’s wrong: roots, cracks, offset joints, collapsed sections, bellies/sags, heavy scale/grease, or foreign objects. Then we recommend the least-invasive, most durable fix your line qualifies for.
Common Sewer Problems We Repair
- Root intrusion through joints or cracks
- Cracked, broken, or collapsed pipe sections
- Offset joints and misaligned fittings
- Pipe bellies/sags collecting sludge and paper
- Heavy grease/scale narrowing the pipe
- Orangeburg/clay/cast-iron deterioration in older homes
If the line is simply blocked, we can rooter clear or hydro-jet before inspection and repair.
Signs You Need Professional Sewer Repair
- Two or more fixtures gurgle or back up together
- Sewer smell indoors, at a cleanout, or in the yard
- Lush/soggy patches or sinkholes along the sewer route
- Recurring clogs shortly after snaking
- Camera inspection shows cracks, offsets, or a collapsed run
Repair Methods We Offer
Targeted Spot Repair
Excavate only where needed to replace a short bad section — fastest when damage is localized.
Trenchless CIPP Lining
Installs a cured-in-place liner inside the existing pipe to seal cracks/minor offsets and stop roots — minimal digging.
Trenchless Pipe Bursting (Replacement)
Pulls a brand-new pipe through as a bursting head fractures the old one — ideal for long, failing runs under driveways or landscaping.
Full Replacement
For severely deteriorated systems or lines with poor slope/bellies where trenchless isn’t appropriate.
We’ll explain pros/cons, costs, and timelines for each option your home qualifies for.
Add-Ons That Protect Your New Line
- Cleanout installation for faster future service
- Backwater valve to reduce city-side backup risk
- Hydro-jetting pre-liner prep / after-repair polishing

Prevent Future Sewer Issues

Our Sewer Repair Process
- Inspect & locate — camera video + electronic depth/location
- Plan & permit — scope the right method; pull permits as required
- Access & protect — small pits or targeted trench; protect landscaping where possible
- Repair — spot repair, trenchless lining/bursting, or replacement
- Verify — post-repair camera video to confirm success
- Backfill & tidy — restore access points, clean the work area
- Closeout — inspection sign-off (where required) + warranty details
You’ll see what failed, where it was, and proof it’s fixed.
When Trenchless May Not Fit
- Long sections fully collapsed with no pass-through
- Severe grade/belly problems that require re-sloping
- Complex tie-ins with no safe access for launch/receive pits
If trenchless isn’t ideal, we’ll price hybrid or open-cut solutions.

Sewer Line Repair FAQs
Do I need a camera inspection first?
Yes. A camera inspection shows the exact problem and guides the right repair method — saving time and unnecessary digging.
Will you mark the exact spot and depth?
Yes. We use an electronic locator to mark location and approximate depth for precise repairs.
How long does trenchless repair take?
Many residential trenchless jobs finish in one day, depending on length, access, and inspections.
Can you repair just a small section?
Absolutely — spot repairs are cost-effective for isolated damage. We’ll confirm via camera.
Do you handle permits and inspections?
Yes. We follow California plumbing code and coordinate any required city inspections.
Will my yard be destroyed?
No — trenchless methods need only small access pits instead of long trenches, significantly reducing restoration costs.
