Answers to the most frequently asked sewer and drain questions from New Ulm property owners.
Absolutely. Tree root intrusion is one of the most common causes of sewer line damage in New Ulm, MN. 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.
We provide 24/7 emergency sewer and drain response throughout New Ulm and surrounding Minnesota 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.
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 New Ulm property without any excavation.
Sewer line repair costs in New Ulm typically range from $1,500 to $5,000 for standard residential repairs and $5,000 to $15,000 or more for full replacements.

We provide free camera inspections with detailed, written estimates before any work begins.
Common warning signs for New Ulm homeowners include multiple slow drains, gurgling toilets, sewage odors in the yard or basement, soggy patches in the lawn, and recurring drain backups. If you notice any of these, call us for a sewer camera inspection to diagnose the problem before it becomes a costly emergency.
