Our Sewer & Drain Services in Friendswood

From emergency sewer backup to routine drain cleaning, we handle every sewer and drain need for homes and businesses in Friendswood, TX.

Sewer Line Relining

Sewer line relining seals cracks, closes root entry points, and restores flow capacity without excavation. We pull a resin-coated liner through your existing pipe and cure it in place for a permanent fix.

Grease Trap Cleaning

Complete grease trap maintenance including pumping, scraping, and cleaning. We document service for health department records and recommend optimal cleaning intervals based on your kitchen volume.

Sewer Line Cleaning

Complete sewer line cleaning that goes beyond simple snaking. We scour pipe walls with hydro jetting equipment to remove years of buildup and restore your sewer line to near-original capacity.

Drain Cleaning

Expert drain clearing for every type of clog. Our technicians diagnose the blockage location and severity, then use the most effective cleaning method to restore full drainage flow.

Drain Repair

Professional drain repair for all pipe materials including PVC, cast iron, copper, and clay. We fix the problem at its source to stop leaks, prevent backups, and restore proper drainage.

Trenchless Sewer Repair

Trenchless sewer repair fixes damaged pipes without excavation. We use CIPP lining or pipe bursting to rehabilitate your sewer line while preserving your yard, driveway, and landscaping.

Hydro Jetting

Industrial-strength hydro jetting for sewer mains, drain lines, and commercial plumbing. High-pressure water cuts through the toughest obstructions and leaves pipe walls clean for maximum flow.

Commercial Drain Cleaning

Industrial-strength commercial drain cleaning for restaurants, retail spaces, offices, and multi-unit buildings. We handle grease lines, floor drains, main sewers, and everything in between.

Sewer Cleanout

We install and service sewer cleanouts to provide direct access to your main drain line. Essential for properties without existing cleanout access, older homes, and properties with recurring issues.

Storm Drain Cleaning

Professional storm drain maintenance to keep surface water flowing safely away from your property. We clean catch basins, drain inlets, and underground storm lines to prevent flooding.

Sewer Camera Inspection

Advanced video camera inspection of your sewer and drain lines. Real-time footage identifies problems, pinpoints locations, and helps us recommend the most cost-effective solution.

Sewer Backup

Sewer backup emergencies require immediate action. We dispatch crews fast to stop the overflow, clear the line, and restore sanitary conditions — then find and fix the root cause.

Drain Snake Service

Professional drain snaking using commercial-grade cable machines to break through tough clogs in sinks, tubs, showers, and main drain lines. Fast, effective, and safe for your pipes.

Sewer Line Replacement

Full sewer lateral replacement using traditional excavation or trenchless pipe bursting. We remove old clay, cast iron, or Orangeburg pipe and install modern materials designed to last 50+ years.

Clogged Drain Repair

Fast clogged drain repair for stubborn blockages in kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and main lines. We break through grease, hair, soap scum, and foreign object clogs quickly.

Around-the-clock emergency drain service for overflowing drains, sewage backups, and flooding. We respond fast with professional equipment to stop the emergency and protect your property.

Expert sewer pipe repair using proven techniques for every pipe material. We fix cracked, corroded, and root-damaged sewer lines with minimal property disruption and lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about sewer and drain services in Friendswood, TX.

How much does sewer line repair cost in Friendswood, TX?

Sewer line repair costs in Friendswood typically range from $1,500 to $5,000 for standard residential repairs and $5,000 to $15,000 or more for full replacements. Factors include pipe material, depth, length of damaged section, and whether trenchless methods can be used. We provide free camera inspections with detailed, written estimates before any work begins.

Does homeowners insurance cover sewer line repair in Friendswood, TX?

Most standard homeowners insurance policies in Friendswood 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 Friendswood homeowners understand their coverage and provide documentation for claims that do apply.

How do you diagnose sewer problems in Friendswood without digging?

We use a specialized waterproof camera that is inserted into your sewer line through a cleanout. The camera transmits real-time video that shows us the exact location and nature of any blockage, crack, offset joint, or root intrusion. This lets us recommend the most cost-effective repair for your Friendswood property without any excavation.

What is hydro jetting and when is it needed in Friendswood?

Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water — up to 4,000 PSI — to scour pipe walls clean, removing grease, scale, tree roots, and mineral deposits. It is recommended for Friendswood properties with recurring clogs, heavy grease buildup, or sewer lines blocked by roots. It is the most effective way to restore full flow to your pipes.

What causes recurring drain clogs in Friendswood homes?

Recurring clogs in Friendswood homes are usually caused by grease buildup inside drain lines, tree root intrusion into sewer pipes, pipe bellies or offsets that trap debris, or undersized plumbing. A sewer camera inspection identifies the root cause so we can fix the real problem, not just clear the symptom temporarily.

Can tree roots damage my sewer line in Friendswood?

Absolutely. Tree root intrusion is one of the most common causes of sewer line damage in Friendswood, TX. 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.
