Our Sewer Line Repair Services
Sewer line problems vary widely in cause and severity. Our team is equipped to handle everything from a simple blockage to a full sewer line replacement. Services we provide include:
- Sewer Line Inspection & Camera Diagnostics — We use professional-grade sewer cameras to pinpoint the exact location and cause of your problem before any digging begins. This saves time, money, and unnecessary disruption to your property.
- Sewer Line Cleaning & Hydro Jetting — Heavy buildup of grease, tree roots, and debris can be blasted away with high-pressure hydro jetting, restoring full flow without chemicals.
- Trenchless Sewer Repair — Using pipe lining (CIPP) and pipe bursting technology, we can often repair or replace your sewer line with minimal excavation — no tearing up your yard, driveway, or landscaping.
- Traditional Sewer Line Repair & Replacement — When a section of pipe is severely damaged, collapsed, or root-infiltrated beyond repair, we provide full excavation and replacement with durable PVC pipe.
- Root Intrusion Removal — Tree roots are one of the most common causes of sewer line failure in older Katy-area homes. We remove roots and treat lines to prevent regrowth.
- Emergency Sewer Repair — Sewer emergencies don’t wait for business hours. Call us 24/7 for urgent sewer backups, sewage overflows, and collapsed lines.

Signs You Need Sewer Line Repair
Sewer line damage rarely announces itself with a single dramatic failure. More often, it builds up quietly over time. Watch for these warning signs that your sewer line may need professional attention:
- Multiple slow or clogged drains — If more than one drain in your home is sluggish at the same time, the problem is likely in the main sewer line, not individual fixture clogs.
- Sewage odors inside or outside your home — A healthy sewer line is airtight. If you’re smelling sewage, there’s a crack or breach somewhere in the system.
- Sewage backup in toilets, tubs, or floor drains — Sewage coming up through fixtures is an emergency. Stop using water and call a plumber immediately.
- Unusually green or lush patches in your yard — A leak in your sewer line fertilizes the soil around it. If one section of your lawn is noticeably greener, your sewer line may be leaking underground.
- Soggy or sunken ground near the sewer line path — Saturated soil or areas where the ground has settled can indicate a broken or collapsed sewer pipe underneath.
- Frequent drain clogs that keep returning — If you’re calling a plumber every few months for the same drain problem, it’s time for a camera inspection to find the root cause.
- Gurgling sounds from toilets or drains — Gurgling indicates trapped air in the system — often caused by a partial blockage or venting issue in the sewer line.
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, don’t wait. Sewer line problems worsen over time and can lead to costly property damage, health hazards, and expensive repairs. Call Katy Plumbing at (281) 601-1513 for a same-day camera inspection.
Repair vs. Replacement: What’s Right for Your Sewer Line?
Not every sewer line problem requires full replacement. The right solution depends on the age of your pipes, the extent of the damage, and your long-term plans for the property. Here’s a general guide:
- Minor blockages or root intrusion — Hydro jetting or mechanical root removal, often followed by a lining treatment to prevent regrowth. Most cost-effective for otherwise sound pipes.
- Small cracks or joint separation — Trenchless pipe lining (CIPP) can seal cracks and reinforce the pipe from the inside without excavation.
- Moderate damage over a short section — Spot repair or pipe bursting may be appropriate — minimally invasive and cost-effective.
- Severely corroded, collapsed, or root-destroyed pipes — Full replacement with new PVC pipe is typically the most reliable long-term solution for older clay or cast iron lines that are failing throughout.
Our plumbers will always recommend the most cost-effective solution for your specific situation. We’ll show you the camera footage, explain your options, and let you make an informed decision — no pressure, no upselling.
