Sewer Lines in Manhattan — FAQs
How do you know where the sewer line is broken?
We run a camera through the line to visually inspect the interior and pinpoint the exact location and type of damage. This avoids unnecessary digging and gives you a clear picture of the problem.
Does the whole line need to be replaced?
Not always. If damage is limited to one section, a spot repair can solve it. If the line is old, collapsed, or has extensive root intrusion, full replacement may be the more reliable long-term option.
