Answers to the most frequently asked sewer and drain questions from Selma property owners.
Absolutely. Tree root intrusion is one of the most common causes of sewer line damage in Selma, AL. Roots seek out moisture and can penetrate tiny cracks or joints in sewer pipes, eventually causing blockages and pipe collapse. Our crews remove roots with hydro jetting and can reline pipes to prevent future intrusion.
Trenchless sewer repair uses pipe lining or pipe bursting technology to fix damaged sewer lines without digging up your yard, driveway, or landscaping. It is faster, less disruptive, and often costs less than traditional excavation. Our Selma crews perform trenchless repairs when site conditions allow — saving you time, money, and landscaping restoration costs.
Most standard homeowners insurance policies in Selma do not cover sewer line repair due to normal wear and aging. However, sudden damage from events like tree root intrusion or ground shifting may be partially covered. Some carriers offer sewer line endorsements. We help Selma homeowners understand their coverage and provide documentation for claims that do apply.
We recommend a sewer camera inspection every 2 to 3 years for Selma properties, or immediately if you notice warning signs like slow drains or sewage odors. Older homes in Selma with clay or cast iron pipes should be inspected more frequently. Regular inspection catches small problems before they become expensive emergencies.
We provide 24/7 emergency sewer and drain response throughout Selma and surrounding Alabama communities. Our crews typically arrive on-site within 60 to 90 minutes of your call. Sewer backups are health hazards that worsen quickly, so rapid response is critical to protecting your property and your family.
Professional drain cleaning by trained technicians will not damage your pipes. Our Selma crews select the appropriate equipment for your pipe material and condition — cable machines for tough clogs, hydro jetting for buildup, and gentle methods for older or fragile pipes. We always inspect before cleaning to avoid unnecessary risk.
