From the cleanout all the way to the main.
We clean the entire sewer lateral, from the house cleanout to the connection at the street, with cables and jetters sized for the full run.
- Reach: Cable and hose lengths for long laterals
- Typical visit: One to three hours
- Report: Camera footage showing your side of the line
What it is, and why it matters.
The sewer lateral can run fifty or a hundred feet or more, and blockages hide at the far end where a short cable never reaches. A Nashville home on a long lot or on an older street can have clay, cast iron, Orangeburg or PVC along the same run, and each fails in its own way.
We clean the lateral with a cable or jetter long enough to reach the connection, then run a camera to look at the pipe from end to end. If the blockage is in the public main, a different party is responsible, and our camera footage helps show where your side stops. We explain the findings and leave you with a clear next step.

Sewer Main Cleaning: common questions
Who is responsible for a blockage in the sewer main?
In many places the property owner maintains the lateral up to the main, and the utility handles the main itself. Rules vary, so check with your local utility. Our footage helps show which side the problem is on.
What is Orangeburg pipe?
A fiber pipe made of layered wood pulp and pitch, used in many homes in the mid-1900s. It softens and deforms over time, and it often needs lining or replacement. A camera inspection shows whether you have it.
