A camera inspection
Roots, cracks, sags or a blockage inside the sewer pipe can all cause backups, and the plumber you hire inspects the line before deciding on a repair.

Gurgling toilets, a sewage smell in the yard or drains that back up all at once can mean the sewer line out of the house is blocked, cracked or full of roots. We connect Gilbert homeowners with independent plumbers for sewer inspection, repair and replacement.

Ways a sewer line gets fixed
Clearing roots and blockages
Roots that have pushed in at a joint, and buildup that narrows the pipe, can slow the line or stop it. Clearing helps for a while, but roots that got in once can come back through the same gap.
Repairing one section
When the damage is confined to one stretch of the sewer line, the plumber you hire can tell you whether that part alone needs repair.
A new sewer line
A line that has collapsed, or is broken in several places, is replaced from the house out toward the main. Tell us what is above the line, such as trees, driveways or walls, so the plumber you hire knows before the visit.
Who is responsible for the sewer line in Gilbert
The Town of Gilbert’s public works standards make the property owner responsible for the sewer service line from the sewer main to the building. Where the standards call for a backwater valve, because the floor sits below the rims of the nearby manholes, the owner maintains that valve as well.
What your build year says about the pipe
Give the sewer line age checker your home’s build year and it lists the sewer pipe materials builders used then, with how far into their service life they would be today. The checker shows materials by build year only, so the plumber you hire confirms what your pipe really is.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a time limit on complaints about poor plumbing work?
Yes. The Arizona Registrar of Contractors (ROC) takes complaints from residential owners against a licensed contractor within two years of the date of occupancy or of the last work performed.
Supply pipes corroding behind the walls are a repiping matter, while one stubborn sink or tub is for drain cleaning. For anything else, use the home page.
