Sewer Line Locating
in Little Rock, AR

You know something's wrong with your sewer line. Maybe drains are backing up, or you've got a soggy spot in your yard that smells terrible. But before anyone can dig up your property and fix the problem, they need to know exactly where that pipe is buried. Digging in the wrong spot wastes time and money, tears up more of your yard than needed, and can hit other buried utilities like gas lines or water mains.

We're a local plumbing company serving Little Rock, and we locate sewer lines every week for homeowners from Riverdale to Pleasant Valley. We use professional equipment to find your sewer line underground so repairs happen in the right place the first time.

Sewer Line Locating in Little Rock: Finding Your Buried Pipes

Sewer line locating means finding the exact path and depth of your sewer pipe underground. Your sewer line runs from your house to the city connection at the street, but most homeowners have no idea where it goes. The pipe might run straight across your yard, or it might curve around trees and landscaping. It could be three feet deep or six feet deep.

Older homes in the Quapaw Quarter and Governor's Mansion District often have hand-drawn plumbing diagrams that don't match reality. The original builders might have changed the route during construction, or someone replaced part of the line years ago and moved it. Property records sometimes show where the sewer line should be, but that's not always where it actually is.

We use electronic locating equipment to trace your sewer line. This equipment sends a signal through the pipe, and we use a receiver above ground to follow that signal across your yard. The receiver tells us how deep the pipe is and marks the exact path it takes. Some jobs also need camera inspection - we run a camera through the pipe to see the inside condition and confirm the line's location.

Tree roots are a big reason people need sewer line locating in neighborhoods like Hillcrest and The Heights. These areas have beautiful old trees with root systems that spread underground. Before we can clear roots from your sewer line or replace a damaged section, we need to know where the pipe is so we don't damage the trees more than necessary.

Why Local Matters
For Your Plumbing

You could call a big national chain. They'll probably charge you more and send someone who doesn't know Little Rock. Local plumbers understand that homes in Pulaski Heights have different plumbing than new builds in West Little Rock. They know which neighborhoods have hard water problems and which areas tend to have foundation shifts that affect plumbing.

When you call a local company, you get someone who answers the phone and can usually tell you right away what's probably happening and when they can get there. No automated system. No waiting on hold for 20 minutes.

Response times are better too. A local plumber is 15 minutes away, not coming from another city. If you've got a burst pipe or sewage backing up, those minutes matter. Plus, local companies know the city inspectors, understand Little Rock's specific codes, and can get permits processed faster. When you need plumbing work done right and done quickly, local is the way to go.
