Drain Cleaning
Slow, gurgling or backed-up drains and main lines, cleared and checked on camera.
Your sewer line probably runs under the front lawn, a driveway or landscaping you've spent years on. Trenchless repair rebuilds the pipe through small openings, so most of that stays as it is. Our office is on Greenbrook Boulevard.


Trenchless sewer repair, also called no-dig sewer repair, fixes a damaged pipe without digging a trench along its full length. Instead of opening up your yard from the house to the street, we work through one or two access points and repair the pipe from the inside or replace it in place. There are two main methods: cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining and pipe bursting. Both fix the line underground, so what's above it stays untouched.
Lines from the 1970s and '80s are often good candidates.
Lining seals it from the inside.
Most of it stays in place.
A sagging section usually needs to be dug and reset first.
Usually one or two small access points.
The footage decides:
| Camera Finding | Approach | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Cracks or roots, pipe still round | Lining | Seals from inside |
| Too broken to line | Pipe bursting | New pipe in the old path |
| A sag or belly | Spot excavation | Reset the grade |
| Full collapse | Excavation | Nothing left to line |
We show you the footage behind every recommendation.

A lining job usually starts in the morning with a cleaning and a fresh camera run, so we're working from today's footage. Next, a liner soaked in resin is pulled or pushed into the old pipe and inflated so it presses against the walls. It cures in place, often in a few hours. Then we reopen any side connections from inside the pipe and run the camera one last time so you can see the finished line. Most Hanover Park homeowners have their plumbing back the same day.

"Great experience, J Blanton scoped and lined our sewer and installed a cleanout, it was quick and easy."
"Updating to also call out Emanuel and Gio, who worked on lining our 110 year old sewer for the past two days. They were flexible, friendly, and professional. No one wants to deal with plumbing issues so we’re thanking for the people who do! 5 stars for Shane Waychoff! He rescued us from a small sewage issue in our basement. [...]"
"We had a good experience with Mike. He inspected our sewer line and showed us the camera footage and clearly explained the sewer relining repair we needed. Mike was knowledgeable and helpful. All in all a good experience."
Not usually.
Not usually. A liner follows the old pipe, so a sag stays a sag. That section needs to be dug and reset.
Decades.
Liners are designed to last for decades.
Usually, and we handle it.
Sewer work usually needs a village permit. We handle it for our work.
Often one day.
Many lining jobs are done in a day.
Slightly, but it flows better.
Slightly smaller inside, but the new surface is smooth with no joints, so it usually flows as well or better.
Yes.
Yes. If only one section is damaged, we can line that part and leave the rest.
It depends on length, depth and method. You'll approve a flat price first.
It depends on how much of the line needs work, the depth, the method and access. You'll approve a flat-rate price before we start.
