Sewer Line Repair
in Little Rock, AR

Sewage backing up repeatedly despite cleaning means there's damage, not just a clog. If you've had your line cleaned multiple times and problems keep coming back immediately, camera inspection usually shows cracks or collapsed sections.

Soggy spots in your yard that smell like sewage mean your line is leaking. Wastewater is escaping through cracks instead of flowing to the sewer. Grass might be greener in that spot because sewage acts like fertilizer.

Sinkholes or depressions in your yard can form when a collapsed sewer line creates a void underground. This is serious and needs immediate attention.

Multiple drain problems throughout your house that don't improve with cleaning suggest pipe damage. If hydro jetting and root removal don't solve the problem, your pipes are probably cracked or collapsed.

Rodents or insects in your home can enter through damaged sewer lines. Rats especially can squeeze through surprisingly small cracks in sewer pipes.

When to repair versus replace depends on the extent of damage. If you've got one cracked section, we can often repair just that area. If you've got multiple problem areas or the whole line is deteriorating, replacement makes more sense. Repairing three different sections costs almost as much as replacing the whole line, and you'll probably have more problems soon anyway.

Age matters too. If your sewer line is 50+ years old with cast iron or clay pipes, replacement is usually the better long-term investment. You're going to keep having problems as the pipe continues to deteriorate.

Repairing or replacing a damaged sewer line prevents sewage from contaminating your property. Raw sewage in your yard is a health hazard and environmental problem.

It prevents foundation damage. Leaking sewage can erode soil under your foundation, causing settling and cracks. Water pooling near your foundation from a broken sewer line creates serious structural problems.

It prevents complete sewer line failure. A cracked pipe gets worse over time. Eventually it collapses completely, and you've got sewage backing up into your house with nowhere to go. Emergency repairs cost more than planned ones.

It prevents water damage inside your home. When your sewer line fails completely, sewage backs up through the lowest drains. Basement flooding with sewage requires expensive cleanup and can ruin finished spaces, furniture, and belongings.

It protects property value. A failing sewer line shows up in home inspections. Buyers either walk away or negotiate major price reductions. Fixing it before selling protects your investment.

It stops recurring expenses. If you're spending hundreds of dollars every few months on drain cleaning because your damaged line keeps clogging, repair pays for itself by eliminating those repeat service calls.

Let's talk about water heaters. Most people don't think about them until they stop working. But here in Arkansas, with our humid summers and cold winters, a working water heater isn't just about comfort. It's about your daily life functioning the way it should.

We install all types of water heaters in Little Rock and the surrounding areas. Whether you live in the Heights, West Little Rock, or out near Maumelle, we can get to you. Tank water heaters, tankless systems, gas or electric. We handle them all.

Here's what most people don't know: your water heater probably needs replacing before it completely dies. If your unit is over 10 years old, making weird noises, or taking longer to heat up water, you're on borrowed time. Many people wait until it fails completely, which usually means coming home to water damage or having no hot water for days while waiting for parts.

When we install a new water heater, we don't just swap the old one for a new one. We check your home's setup, talk about your hot water needs (big family? guests often? lots of laundry?), and help you pick the right size. A water heater that's too small means you run out of hot water. One that's too big wastes energy and money every month.

The Hillcrest neighborhood has a lot of older homes with original plumbing. The process for replacing water heaters usually takes about 3-4 hours. Newer homes in Chenal Valley or Maumelle sometimes need different setups, especially if they have specific builder requirements.

If you need a full replacement, a new water heater can usually be installed within 24-48 hours.

Some plumbing problems can wait until Monday morning. Others can't.

A toilet that won't stop overflowing? That's an emergency. A burst pipe spraying water everywhere? You need help now. A backed-up drain flooding your basement? That needs attention right away.

We handle emergency plumbing calls for Little Rock homeowners. We're not available 24/7, but we respond quickly during business hours and can often get to you same-day.

The thing about plumbing emergencies is they always happen at the worst time. Saturday night before you're hosting Sunday brunch. Right before you leave for vacation. Five minutes after you put your kids to bed.

When you call, we'll ask you some questions about what's happening. Sometimes we can walk you through a quick fix to stop the immediate problem until we can get there. Other times, you need to shut off your water right away to prevent damage.

If you've got water spraying everywhere, find your main water shut-off valve. In most Little Rock homes, it's near where the water line comes into your house, often in the basement or on an exterior wall. Turn it clockwise until it stops. That turns off all the water to your house and stops the flooding.

Nobody plans for their toilet to overflow or their drain to back up. But when it happens, you need someone who can get there fast and actually fix it, not just temporarily clear it so it backs up again next month.

We work all over the greater Little Rock area. From the historic homes in Quapaw Quarter to the newer developments in Maumelle and Conway. Each area has its own plumbing quirks.

Older neighborhoods often have galvanized pipes or cast iron that's reaching the end of its life. Newer areas might have builder-grade fixtures that need upgrading. And everywhere in between has water heaters that eventually wear out and drains that eventually clog.

Your plumbing keeps your home running. Hot showers, clean dishes, flushing toilets, washing clothes, all of that depends on everything working right. When something goes wrong, you need someone who can fix it quickly and do it right the first time.

That's what we do. No fancy marketing language. Just reliable plumbing service from people who actually live and work in Little Rock. Give us a call when you need a new water heater installed, when your drains are acting up, or when you've got any plumbing problem that needs fixing.
