The lateral running from a Boston house to the main is often original clay with root intrusion at every joint. We camera it first, give you the recording, and then price the smallest intervention that solves it.
Inspect
Colour camera with a sonde locate. You get the video file and a marked plan, whether or not you hire us for the repair.
Clear
Hydro-jetting to the pipe wall rather than a cable that punches a hole through the blockage and leaves the rest.
Line or replace
Cured-in-place lining where the host pipe holds shape, pipe bursting where it does not. Full excavation only when nothing else works.
Verify
Post-work camera pass and a flow test, plus city sign-off on anything that touches the public main.
What's Included
In the price.
- Recorded camera inspection with locate

Questions
Asked often.
Do I have to dig up my yard?
Usually not. Trenchless lining or bursting needs one or two small access pits, so brick walks, mature trees, and driveways stay where they are.
How long does a liner last?
Fifty years is the standard design life, and it carries a written warranty. It also seals every joint the roots were using.
Can you inspect before I buy a house?
Yes, and we recommend it on anything built before 1970. The recording and the report go straight to you the same day.
Request
Start with drain & sewer.
Begin
