Marietta Drain Repair

A large portion of the plumbing system in your house is comprised of drain piping.

Sometimes these pipes develop leaks due to age or age or corrosion. When a leak occurs we can either fix or replace the drain pipe. Often times a leak is detected by the customer as a wet spot in a ceiling or wall. Or there may be an odor coming from the house or in a closet or attic space. Once we have located the source of a leak in a drain , we can offer our clients options as to how to best proceed.

We have experience with all drain line materials. Cast Iron, Galvanized and ABS are the most common materials. Copper drains are less common in residences but we have made many repairs in copper systems as well. No job is too big or too small.

If you suspect you have a leak in a drain, call us now and we can offer you assistance in correcting the problem.

Occasional main sewer stoppages are common. However, when your sewer is slow or stopped on a more consistent basis there may be problems that need to be corrected. It takes a professional plumber with experience to ba able to pinpoint exactly where the problem is, the first time.

The most common issue with main sewers and drains is root infiltration. Other causes can be a broken cracked or offset drain pipe damaged by shifting soil or settling. Sewer pipes and drain pipes are installed in sections and sometimes soil conditions allow or create a “belly” in a section of pipe where the pipe has sunk and tends to collect debris and build up to the point of a stoppage. The pipe section can also be raised by soil conditions or tree roots lifting the pipe, again leading to stoppages.

When drain stoppages persist, a newer technology of video inspection can be used. Using a fiber optic camera attached to a waterproof push rod we can send the camera down the sewer line from the house out to the city sewer. We can view this journey on a video screen and determine if there are problems with the line. If an issue is found, we can use our line locating sonar equipment to determine the location of the problem. This often allows a spot repair rather than a replacement of the sewer line saving you thousands in rpair costs!!
