Sewer Line Repair & Replacement
Video camera inspection, trenchless repair, and full sewer replacement — with minimal disruption to your yard and your life.
Is Your Sewer Line Failing?
Sewer problems rarely appear overnight. These are the early warning signs Colorado Springs homeowners should watch for.
Multiple Drain Backups
When drains in multiple fixtures back up at the same time — toilets, tubs, and sinks — it's a strong indicator of a main sewer line problem, not an isolated clog.
Green Patches in Your Yard
Unusually lush or wet grass above your sewer line is often caused by a leak. Sewage acts as fertilizer, so the grass directly above the pipe may be greener than the rest of your lawn.
Sewage Odor Inside or Outside
A properly functioning sewer is airtight. If you smell sulfur or sewage in your yard, basement, or near floor drains, the pipe is cracked or has a broken seal somewhere in the line.
Rodent or Pest Activity
Rats and cockroaches can enter your home through cracks in sewer pipes. If you're seeing unexplained pest activity — especially near drains — a compromised sewer line may be the cause.
Foundation Cracks or Settling
A leaking sewer line beneath your foundation can erode the soil and cause settling, sinkholes, or cracks in your foundation or driveway.
Slow Drains Throughout the House
When multiple fixtures drain slowly and plunging or snaking provides only temporary relief, you likely have a partial blockage or damage deep in the main line.
From Diagnosis to Resolution
We use the right tool for your specific situation — no unnecessary upsells.
Video Camera Inspection
We run a high-definition camera through your sewer line and record the footage so you can see exactly what's causing the problem. You get a copy of the video.
Sewer Line Locating
We electronically locate and mark your sewer line on your property — essential before excavation and useful if you're planning landscaping or construction.
Targeted Pipe Repair
When damage is isolated to one section, we excavate only that area and repair or replace that section — a far less costly alternative to full replacement.
Trenchless Pipe Lining (CIPP)
We insert a flexible, resin-coated liner into your existing pipe and cure it in place, creating a seamless new pipe inside the old one. No digging up your yard.
Pipe Bursting
For pipes too deteriorated for lining, we use pipe bursting technology — pulling a new pipe through the old one while simultaneously fracturing and displacing the old pipe outward.
Full Sewer Replacement
When the entire line has failed, full replacement is the most reliable solution. We work with local permitting authorities and can handle the complete project from excavation to backfill.

Why We Always Start With a Camera Inspection
No two sewer problems are alike. Root intrusion, grease blockages, pipe collapse, and joint failures all present similar symptoms — but require completely different solutions. Without a camera inspection, you're guessing. And guessing with sewer lines is expensive.
At Apex, we run a camera inspection before recommending any significant sewer work. This lets us show you exactly what we found, recommend the most appropriate and cost-effective solution, and avoid unnecessary excavation. You'll know what you're paying for and why before we start.
Danny Reyes, Lead Plumber:
"I've been doing sewer line work for six years and I've seen jobs where the camera saved the homeowner $4,000 — because the 'full replacement' another plumber quoted turned out to be a single root ball we could clear in an hour."
