About This Project

We performed a sewer line repair at a Tujunga property after the homeowner experienced ongoing drainage issues caused by heavy tree root intrusion. The sewer line was excavated near the sidewalk to expose the damaged clay pipe, which had been penetrated and broken by roots over time. Once exposed, we removed the compromised section and cleared all root debris from the line. A new sewer pipe section was installed and properly transitioned to the existing clay line to restore full flow and structural integrity. After installation, the line was tested to confirm proper drainage before preparing the area for backfill and surface restoration.

Project FAQ

Common questions about this sewer line repair project.

Clay pipes were the standard material for decades but have porous joints that shrink and separate over time. Tree roots naturally seek moisture and nutrients, making these joints easy entry points. Once inside, roots expand and crack the pipe further.
