A sewage backup rising in a basement floor drain, repeated backups every time the washer runs, or a foul smell in the yard that won't go away — sewer line problems escalate fast and rarely resolve on their own. Our Shepherd sewer team camera-inspects before recommending any repair.
No sewer repair is recommended without first confirming the cause on camera.
Pipe lining can often repair a damaged sewer line without full excavation of your yard or driveway.
Every technician on a sewer job is licensed and insured for underground utility work.
We treat active backups as emergencies, not routine scheduling.
These are the sewer line issues we see most across Shepherd, MI, each requiring a different repair approach.
A waterproof camera is run the full length of the line to locate breaks, root intrusion, or bellied sections.
A resin liner is installed inside the damaged pipe, sealing cracks and root entry points without digging up the yard.
A root-cutting head clears the blockage, then the line is reassessed for structural damage the roots may have caused.
Full replacement is reserved for lines beyond repair — we'll always explain why lining isn't viable first.
Active backups get immediate dispatch to clear the blockage and stop sewage from continuing to back up into the home.
A maintenance plan on a problem main line can prevent repeat emergency calls.
Active backups get flagged for priority dispatch immediately.
A technician with camera equipment is routed to Shepherd, ready to inspect the line on arrival.
The line is camera-inspected, the cause identified, and you'll see the footage before a repair method is recommended.
The repair is completed and camera-verified afterward, backed by a written warranty on the work.
