Sewer Camera Inspection in Middlebury, VT

When you have recurring drain problems, a sewer camera inspection is crucial. We insert a flexible, waterproof camera into your pipes to visually diagnose issues like cracks, breaks, root intrusion, or significant blockages. This no-dig method allows for precise problem identification, saving you time and money on needless digging.

Downspout and Roof Drain Solutions in Middlebury

Gutters and scuppers concentrate a lot of roof water into a few points, often right next to the foundation. We connect downspouts to buried solid pipe and run it to pop-up emitters or a dry well well away from the house. Clay soils in river valleys drain poorly and can hold water against foundations, so sump systems are common in low-lying homes. Moving that water away also stops erosion that eats away at walkways and landscaping.

Dry Well Installation in Middlebury, VT

Where there is no place to discharge water on the surface, a dry well lets it soak into deeper soil. Dense clay or hardpan layers can block absorption, so we test the soil and dig through hard layers when needed. Some jurisdictions have rules on dry well registration and placement, and we follow them. A properly sized dry well with a sediment chamber can handle repeated heavy storms.

Kitchen, Bath and Laundry Drain Clearing in Middlebury

Slow sinks, gurgling tubs and overflowing laundry standpipes typically come from grease, hair, soap scum and mineral scale. Some Vermont wells carry iron, manganese or other naturally occurring minerals, so a lab test is the first step before choosing treatment. Hard water leaves calcium deposits that narrow pipes and catch debris faster than soft water does. We clear lines with the right size cable for each fixture and avoid harsh chemicals that damage pipes. If clogs keep coming back, we camera the line to find the reason.

Drainage Service Cost Comparison in Middlebury, VT

Clearing a single fixture drain usually costs $125 to $300, and a main line clearing runs $200 to $500. Hydro jetting a main line usually costs $400 to $900.
