Sewer Line Repair & Replacement in San Diego
Recurring backups, sewage odors, or a collapsed line? ASI diagnoses with camera inspection and repairs or replaces your sewer line — including trenchless options that spare your yard.
Diagnose and Fix Sewer Line Problems for Good
A failing sewer line rarely fixes itself — and the longer it waits, the worse (and messier) it gets. Tree roots, aging clay or cast-iron pipe, ground shifting, and stubborn clogs all take a toll on the main line that carries waste away from your home. Repeated backups are often the first warning.
ASI starts with a camera inspection to see exactly what’s wrong and where, then recommends the right fix — a targeted repair, trenchless rehabilitation that spares your landscaping, or full replacement when the line is beyond saving. Since 1952, The White Glove Guys have handled San Diego’s toughest sewer jobs with upfront pricing and no overtime charges. See also our pipe lining and sewer services.
Signs of a Failing Sewer Line
Several of these at once usually point to a main-line problem — call for a camera inspection.
Frequent or Multiple Backups
When more than one drain backs up, or backups keep returning after clearing, the problem is often in the main sewer line.
Sewage Odors Indoors or Outside
A persistent sewage smell in the house or yard can mean a cracked or broken sewer line is venting where it shouldn't.
Gurgling Toilets and Drains
Air trapped by a blocked or damaged main line makes toilets and drains gurgle as water struggles past.
Soggy or Extra-Green Patches
An unusually lush or wet area in the yard over the sewer line can mean waste is leaking underground.
Slow Drains Throughout the House
When every drain is sluggish at once, the restriction is usually in the main line, not a single fixture.
Sunken or Cracked Spots in the Yard
A collapsing sewer line can cause the ground above it to dip, crack, or sink.

Sewer Line Questions, Answered
We run a waterproof camera through the line to see the exact condition and location of the damage, so the repair is targeted — no guesswork or unnecessary digging.
Trenchless methods rehabilitate or replace a sewer line through small access points instead of digging a long trench — often saving your driveway, landscaping, and time.
The camera inspection tells us how extensive the damage is. Isolated damage can often be repaired or relined; a line that’s collapsed or failing in multiple spots is better replaced. We explain the trade-offs and pricing.
Yes. Sewer work requires permits and inspection. We pull them and complete the work to code.
It depends on length, depth, and method. Trenchless jobs are often faster; traditional excavation takes longer. We give you a clear timeline after the inspection.
