Repeated main line backups in the Southtown area of San Antonio are not a drain cleaning problem. Something in the line has failed. We camera sewer laterals across Southtown and hand you the video, whether you hire us for the repair or not.
The ground here is clay soil near the river corridor, and Southtown homes are early 1900s housing stock with heavy recent renovation. Those two facts together produce renovated interiors still fed by original under-slab and cast-iron lines — the reason a line that ran fine for thirty years starts backing up twice a season.
A spot repair is the right answer more often than the industry admits. If the camera shows one failed joint in an otherwise sound line, that is what we quote — full replacement is a recommendation we have to earn.
