Our Sewer & Drain Services in New Kensington

Our licensed Pennsylvania crews provide a complete range of sewer and drain services for New Kensington homeowners and businesses.

Drain Snake Service

Commercial drain snaking for residential and commercial properties. Our motorized cable machines clear roots, grease, and debris from drain lines up to 100 feet or more from the access point.

Sewer Line Cleaning

Thorough sewer line cleaning to remove grease, sludge, roots, and mineral deposits. We use hydro jetting and mechanical cleaning to restore full flow to your main sewer line.

Sewer Line Replacement

Complete sewer line replacement when repair is no longer cost-effective. We install modern PVC or HDPE pipe with proper grade and connections for decades of reliable service.

Trenchless Sewer Repair

Minimally invasive trenchless technology repairs cracked, root-damaged, and deteriorating sewer lines from the inside. No trenching, no landscaping destruction, no lengthy restoration projects.

Sewer Line Repair

From spot repairs to full section replacements, we fix damaged sewer lines efficiently and permanently. Camera-verified diagnostics ensure we repair exactly what needs fixing — nothing more, nothing less.

Drain Repair

Drain pipe repair that addresses the root cause, not just the symptom. We camera-inspect, identify the failure point, and repair or replace the damaged section for lasting results.

Sewer Backup

Fast sewer backup cleanup and repair. We clear the blockage, sanitize affected areas, and diagnose the cause to prevent future backups. Available around the clock for emergencies.

Emergency Drain Service

Around-the-clock emergency drain service for overflowing drains, sewage backups, and flooding. We respond fast with professional equipment to stop the emergency and protect your property.

Sewer Camera Inspection

High-definition sewer camera inspection that shows you exactly what is happening inside your pipes. We locate cracks, roots, offsets, bellies, and blockages without any digging.

Clogged Drain Repair

Fast clogged drain repair for stubborn blockages in kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and main lines. We break through grease, hair, soap scum, and foreign object clogs quickly.

Sewer Cleanout

We install and service sewer cleanouts to provide direct access to your main drain line. Essential for properties without existing cleanout access, older homes, and properties with recurring issues.

Grease Trap Cleaning

Complete grease trap maintenance including pumping, scraping, and cleaning. We document service for health department records and recommend optimal cleaning intervals based on your kitchen volume.

Sewer Line Relining

Professional CIPP relining to rehabilitate cracked, root-damaged, and leaking sewer lines from the inside. The epoxy-saturated liner cures in place and restores structural integrity without digging.

Drain Cleaning

Professional drain cleaning for kitchens, bathrooms, floor drains, and main lines. We clear clogs caused by grease, hair, soap, and debris using cable machines and hydro jetting.

Hydro Jetting

Professional hydro jetting that removes everything from your pipe walls — tree roots, hardened grease, calcium buildup, and years of accumulated debris. Restores full pipe capacity in a single visit.

Sewer Line Installation

Professional sewer lateral installation with proper slope, bedding, and municipal tie-in. We handle permits, excavation, pipe laying, inspection, and site restoration from start to finish.

Commercial Drain Cleaning

Professional drain maintenance for commercial properties of all sizes. From restaurant grease lines to warehouse floor drains, we keep your business draining properly with scheduled and emergency service.

Storm Drain Cleaning

Professional storm drain maintenance to keep surface water flowing safely away from your property. We clean catch basins, drain inlets, and underground storm lines to prevent flooding.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most frequently asked sewer and drain questions from New Kensington property owners.

How do you diagnose sewer problems in New Kensington without digging?

We use a specialized waterproof camera that is inserted into your sewer line through a cleanout. The camera transmits real-time video that shows us the exact location and nature of any blockage, crack, offset joint, or root intrusion. This lets us recommend the most cost-effective repair for your New Kensington property without any excavation.

What are signs I need sewer line repair in New Kensington?

Common warning signs for New Kensington homeowners include multiple slow drains, gurgling toilets, sewage odors in the yard or basement, soggy patches in the lawn, and recurring drain backups. If you notice any of these, call us for a sewer camera inspection to diagnose the problem before it becomes a costly emergency.

Does homeowners insurance cover sewer line repair in New Kensington, PA?

Most standard homeowners insurance policies in New Kensington do not cover sewer line repair due to normal wear and aging. However, sudden damage from events like tree root intrusion or ground shifting may be partially covered. Some carriers offer sewer line endorsements. We help New Kensington homeowners understand their coverage and provide documentation for claims that do apply.

How long does a drain cleaning take in New Kensington?

Most residential drain cleaning jobs in New Kensington, PA take 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the severity of the clog and the number of drains affected. Main sewer line cleaning may take longer. Our crews arrive with professional-grade snaking equipment and hydro jetting capability to handle any blockage quickly.

Do you handle both residential and commercial drain cleaning in New Kensington?

Yes. Our New Kensington, PA teams are equipped for drain cleaning at any scale — from residential kitchen and bathroom drains to commercial restaurant grease lines, multi-unit buildings, and industrial facilities. We carry equipment rated for pipes from 1.5 inches to 12 inches in diameter.

What is hydro jetting and when is it needed in New Kensington?

Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water — up to 4,000 PSI — to scour pipe walls clean, removing grease, scale, tree roots, and mineral deposits. It is recommended for New Kensington properties with recurring clogs, heavy grease buildup, or sewer lines blocked by roots. It is the most effective way to restore full flow to your pipes.
