Sewer Repair
Roots, cracked pipe and repeat backups in sewer lines that are now about 50 years old.
A kitchen sink that won't drain, a shower that floods your ankles or a floor drain that backs up. We clear it, show you the cause and price it before we start. Our office is on Greenbrook Boulevard. Open 24/7.


Call when plunging doesn't work, the same drain keeps clogging or you smell sewage. If one drain is slow, the clog is in that branch. If several are slow, or the basement floor drain fills, the main line is blocked and needs sewer line cleaning.
When the floor drain backs up or every drain slows at once, the main sewer drain is blocked. It takes a machine that can reach from the cleanout to the public sewer.
We clear it and camera it so you see the cause: roots, grease or a low spot where the pipe settled. If it keeps happening, we'll go over hydro jetting or a repair.
Hair and soap in bathrooms, grease in kitchens and lint in laundry lines cause most clogs. We clear them and show you what came out.
If a drain keeps clogging, we'll check whether the pipe has buildup that needs jetting.
Grease is behind most kitchen clogs. It coats the pipe and traps food scraps.
If the dishwasher backs up into the sink, the kitchen drain or disposal is likely clogged.

"5/1/25 We've been working with J Blanton for 5+ years now and are very happy with our experience. Our most recent technician was Lawrence Wagner who did an excellent job helping us with a clogged kitchen sink. Fixing it and then recommending the best way for us to maintain it from clogging again. He was very efficient and explained everything well."

Buildup in the pipe.
Usually buildup in the pipe. Clearing the clog opens a path. Jetting removes the buildup.
Check how many drains are slow.
If only one drain is slow, it's that branch. If several are, it's the main.
We don't recommend it.
We don't recommend it. It rarely clears the clog and can damage pipes.
Yes.
Yes. Laundry lint is a common cause. A lint trap on the washer hose helps prevent it.
