The sewer lateral that carries waste from your Ithaca home to the municipal main is the single highest-consequence pipe on your property. A failure in this line affects every drain in the house simultaneously.
Most sewer line work in this trade has been built around contractor convenience rather than customer outcomes. We built our sewer practice around the methodology that the consequences of the work demand: documented diagnosis before any recommendation, method selection based on what the line actually requires, and written records that you can hold us to.
The Diagnostic Sequence That Defines Real Sewer Work
A sewer line repair recommendation should never be made without a camera inspection. Our methodology begins with the camera, locates the failure with a transmitter, documents the depth and position, identifies the failure mode, and only then proceeds to method selection.
