Overview
Drain Repair you can count on in Southeast Michigan
Drain lines fail from age, shifting soil, root intrusion, and corrosion. Cast iron rusts from the inside, clay joints separate, and older plastic can crack or sag into a belly that traps waste.
We diagnose with a camera, mark the location, and repair only the section that has failed — rather than clearing the same clog every few months and hoping it holds.

Know The Signs
Signs A Drain Line Needs Repair, Not Just Cleaning
01
The Same Line Clogs Repeatedly
A drain that blocks every few months has a physical defect catching debris — a break, an offset joint, or a low spot in the run.
02
You See Sewage Or Damp Spots In The Yard
Soggy ground or an unusually green patch above the sewer run often means the buried line is leaking into the soil.
03
Your Home Has Cast Iron Or Clay Drains
Both materials have a service life. Cast iron scales and rusts through; clay joints shift and admit roots.
04
Drains Are Slow Right After Being Cleared
If flow degrades immediately after a professional cleaning, the pipe is not holding grade or has lost diameter.
05
There Are Foundation Or Floor Cracks Near A Drain
A leaking under-slab drain can undermine the soil beneath a foundation. That is a repair to make sooner, not later.
06
Sewer Odor Persists After Cleaning
Smell that survives a thorough cleaning usually means the line is cracked and venting gas into the structure or soil.
Our Process
How We Diagnose And Repair Drain Lines
A camera inspection locates the fault and a locator marks the exact depth and position, so any excavation is targeted instead of exploratory.
We then repair or replace the affected section, verify slope and flow, and re-camera the line to confirm the problem is genuinely resolved.
Specific Work Practices Include
- Camera inspection and electronic locating to pinpoint the defect before any digging or demolition.
- Section replacement or spot repair with correct materials, slope, and bedding.
- Post-repair camera verification and flow test so you can see the finished condition of the line.

What People Search For
Drain Line Repair & Camera Diagnosis Across Metro Detroit
Drain repair in Detroit's older housing stock usually means cast iron or clay. Cast iron scales until the interior is rough and narrow; clay joints shift and let roots in. Cleaning helps for a while, but the pipe keeps failing.
We camera the line, locate the defect precisely, and repair the section that is actually broken — in Royal Oak, Ferndale, Dearborn, Livonia, Warren, and the rest of Southeast Michigan.
