Capital Region Drain Cleaning
& Sewer Services

On the older clay-tile and cast-iron lines common across the Capital Region, the usual culprit is tree roots growing in through cracked joints — and they grow right back after a snaking. A rooter clears the immediate clog, but a camera inspection shows us exactly where the roots are getting in, so you can spot-repair or line just that section and break the cycle instead of paying to snake it again every few weeks.

Plenty of clogs are a simple clear-and-go, and we’ll tell you when that’s all it is. But if a line backs up repeatedly, or you’re buying a home, or there’s a sewer smell or sink hole over the run, the camera is what tells us the true cause — roots, a cracked or collapsed pipe, or a bellied section holding waste. It turns a recurring mystery into a clear, one-time fix and is worth it before you spend money on the wrong repair.

Often, yes. Once the camera shows where and how the line is failing, many repairs can be done as a spot fix at the bad joint or, where the site allows, with trenchless methods that avoid tearing up the full run. We walk you through the realistic options and the upfront price for each before any excavation, so you can weigh a targeted repair against a full replacement.

Both. Inside the cities you’re typically on municipal sewer, but a large share of the 140-plus towns we serve are out on well and septic. We handle tank pump-outs, drain-field diagnosis and full septic replacements out in the rural ring, done to the local county health department’s standards — not just city sewer-lateral work.
