Addressing Common Sewer Line Issues
Over the years, your sewer line can become susceptible to various types of damage. Many problems can be prevented by taking care of your plumbing system and scheduling regular maintenance. Other issues are due to more uncontrollable circumstances, such as dirt settling and tree roots growing through your pipes.
Our plumbing specialists can fix any type of sewer line damage, including:
- Hard scale buildup: All the stuff that goes down your drains passes through your sewer line. Over time, the particles can accumulate on the inside of the pipes and lead to a blockage. If not treated promptly, it can result in severe breaks in your sewer line. One possible solution is hydrojetting, which will blast through all the gunk and leave your pipes in like-new condition.
- Tree root intrusion: Tree roots grow towards the moisture that is in your sewer lines. The roots can infiltrate your pipes, causing severe blockages and damage. Many times, hydrojetting can cut through these roots and resolve the problem. More severe cases may require the installation of a new sewer line.
- Deterioration: Sewer lines are subject to rust and corrosion. As sewer lines age, this deterioration can lead to missing sections of piping, collapsed pipes, and sewage overflows. When pipes reach this stage, it may be sufficient to repair one part of the pipe, or it may require a full pipe replacement.
- Misaligned pipes: When a sewer pipe becomes offset or misaligned, often due to settling, wastewater will escape and cause the soil around the pipe to erode. This will eventually lead to the pipe collapsing. In this case, pipelining or pipe bursting may be the solution that is required.

“He is incredibly thorough. Not only did he fix the issue at hand, he went above and beyond to figure out where the problem could be coming from beyond the immediate problem.”Tiffani Y.
“He went above the call of duty”
Marco was extraordinary!- Tiffani Y.
We had an urgent situation where our drain was backed up and overflowing into our bathroom and then into our bedroom. I called Marco and he immediately guided me over the phone (recalling what my house set up since he had been out the week before for an unrelated problem) to help me get the water under control.
I needed him to come out right away and he rearranged his schedule so that he can squeeze us in. He let us know if he wasnt able to move things around he could call a friend of his also in the plumbing business which was great he had a solution for us if he wasnt able to move his other appts around.
Another reason I really appreciate his work is that he is incredibly thorough. Not only did he fix the issue at hand, he went above and beyond to figure out where the problem could be coming from beyond the immediate problem. Turns out I had a blockage of roots growing into my sewer line to the street. He called the county for me the next day to find out whose responsibility this is to fix. The county then pointed him to the city so he called them for me and told them the problem he saw using his camera and asked them to take care of it (and they did!) He absolutely didn't need to do this next step as his work for me was already done but this is how I found him to be extraordinary because he went above the call of duty.
I really appreciated all his help in this situation and I would definitely use him again -
“Marco and his crew are life-savors. Responsive, effective, timely, kind, pleasant and generous are some words I’d use to describe them. I really couldn’t ask for more and as a single mom and homeowner, it’s a relief to find the kind of support I’ve felt from being able to rely upon Marco.”Linda P.

“Marco didn't actually come out to fix my plumbing, so I can't review him on that. However, I called because I thought my sump pump was broken. I called several other plumbers and it sounded like an expensive repair. I told Marco exactly what the problem seemed to be (sump pump not pumping out the water) and he suggested I try taking the lid off and using a broom stick to see if I could dislodge TP from the float that regulates the sump pump.Justin S.
I tried it and it worked! Everyone else quoted me $1100-1200 for the repair but no one suggested trying this one simple thing. I appreciate the honesty and helpfulness Marco provided and if I need a plumber in the future will use him. Thanks Marco!” -
“I called and texted and Handy Plumbing Man replied! It was close to midnight. Who does that?! I was so impressed. He has a calming voice and I just listened to his advice. And he was right.”Holly Y.
“Handy Plumbing Man came in half an hour”
Like many of the reviews, i had a backup at the most inconvenient time. Late Friday night backup from the toilet. A bad one - sewage coming up. It was horrifying. I called and texted and Handy Plumbing Man replied! It was close to midnight. Who does that?! I was so impressed. He has a calming voice and I just listened to his advice. And he was right. The next morning he came out and fixed my backup. A real nice gentleman. And very quick. Thank you!- Holly Y.
I had a second problem that came up again on a Friday evening! And again Handy Plumbing Man came in half an hour and to my rescue. I'm so glad I found Marco. -
“I called handy plumbing drain for a clogged kitchen sink. Marco picked up his phone on a Sunday morning. I had a family dinner and needed my kitchen sink to work. He came out very professional got to work and my sink was draining 30 minutes later. Thanks a lot I will definitely use him for all my plumbing needs.”Pilar C.
