FAQs
What are the most common signs that my main sewer line in Kodak is clogged or damaged?
Typical warning signs include multiple drains backing up at the same time, gurgling sounds from toilets or tubs, sewage odors inside or outside the home, soggy or unusually green patches in the yard, and water backing up into floor drains when you run the washing machine. If you notice any of these, you should shut off water usage and call our team right away to prevent further damage.
How quickly can your Kodak-area plumbers respond to a main line emergency?
We maintain a 24/7 emergency dispatch for all main line issues in Kodak and the surrounding Sevier and Knox County communities. A licensed technician is typically on site within 60–90 minutes, even on weekends and holidays. Our trucks are fully stocked with cameras, hydro-jetting equipment, pipe patch kits, and excavation tools so most repairs can begin immediately.
Do you offer trenchless repair options for broken sewer or water mains?
Yes. After an in-line camera inspection confirms the location and extent of the damage, we can often use trenchless technologies such as pipe bursting or cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining. These methods eliminate most digging, preserve landscaping and driveways, and usually restore service the same day. If conditions such as severe collapse or grade change require open-cut excavation, we will explain why and provide a clear written estimate first.
What does a main line repair or replacement typically cost in Kodak?
Costs vary based on pipe material, depth, length, and whether trenchless or traditional excavation is used. Minor clogs cleared by hydro-jetting may cost as little as $250–$450. Spot repairs with CIPP lining usually range from $900–$2,000. Full sewer line replacements can be $3,500–$8,000 or more. We provide a free on-site assessment, up-front flat pricing, and multiple financing options to fit your budget.
Will I need permits or inspections for main line work on my property?
Yes. Any repair or replacement that involves altering the main sewer or water line requires permits from Sevier County or the City of Kodak, plus an inspection by the local utility authority. Our office handles all permit applications, fees, and inspection scheduling on your behalf so you remain compliant without the paperwork hassle.
How can I prevent future main line problems once my system is fixed?
Avoid flushing wipes, feminine products, paper towels, fats, oils, and grease—these are the biggest contributors to clogs. If you have mature trees, consider annual root-control treatments to prevent intrusion. We recommend a professional camera inspection every two to three years to catch minor issues early. For added peace of mind, ask about our preventative maintenance plan, which includes discounted jetting, priority scheduling, and extended warranties on any repairs we perform.
