Trenchless Sewer Line Solutions
Innovative trenchless technology is at the forefront of what we offer. Our trenchless sewer line solutions are designed to repair or replace your sewer lines without extensive digging, preserving your landscape and minimizing disruption to your daily life.
This method involves either pipe lining to rehabilitate existing pipes or pipe bursting to replace them entirely by installing a new pipe underground.
This process not only saves time but also protects your property’s aesthetic and structural integrity. The bursting head technology we use allows for efficient sewer line replacement, pushing out the old pipes while simultaneously pulling in the new sewer line.
We provide solutions that blend innovation with care because we believe your sewer system should operate smoothly with minimal impact on your surroundings.

Sewer Maintenance Tips for Nashville Homes
Maintaining your sewer system is crucial for avoiding costly repairs.
We recommend the following sewer maintenance tips:
- Routine maintenance. Schedule regular inspections and cleaning to catch issues like tree roots or damaged pipes before they cause serious trouble.
- Avoid harsh chemicals. Use environmentally friendly cleaners to prevent corrosion of your sewer pipes, which can lead to leaks and other complications.
- Proper disposal practices. Be mindful of what goes down your drains. Avoid flushing anything other than waste and toilet paper to prevent blockages.
- Plant wisely. When landscaping, consider the location of your sewer lines. Plant trees away from sewer pipes to prevent root intrusion.
- Invest in strainers. Use drain strainers to catch hair and other debris, preventing them from entering your sewer system.
By following these tips, you can extend the life of your sewer system and avoid the inconvenience of unexpected repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sewer Line Repair & Replacement
Am I responsible for repairing the entire sewer line, or does Metro Nashville handle part of it?
In Metro Nashville/Davidson County and surrounding Middle Tennessee municipalities, property owners are responsible for the entire private sewer lateral: the pipe running from your home’s foundation all the way to its connection with the public sewer main in the street.
Even if a portion of your lateral extends under the public sidewalk or right-of-way, repairs to that private line fall on the homeowner.
How do Middle Tennessee's soil and terrain affect underground sewer lines?
Greater Nashville sits on a heavy limestone bedrock covered by dense, expansive red clay. During wet Middle Tennessee winters and spring storms, red clay expands significantly; during hot, dry summers, it shrinks and shifts.
This continuous soil expansion and contraction puts immense pressure on underground pipes, frequently causing older clay, cast iron, or deteriorating fiber pipes to crack, sag (form "bellies"), or shear off entirely.
Can tree roots cause my sewer line to collapse completely?
Yes. Mature oak, maple, and hackberry trees, common in historic neighborhoods like East Nashville, Belle Meade, and Franklin, have aggressive root systems. Roots naturally seek underground moisture and invade tiny seam separations or micro-cracks in your sewer pipe.
Once inside, the roots grow continuously, trapping waste and eventually exerting enough outward pressure to shatter fragile clay or corroded cast-iron lines.
Do sewer line repairs require permits and inspections in Davidson and surrounding counties?
Yes. Any major repair or full replacement of a private sewer main requires specific plumbing permits and post-repair inspections from local utility departments, such as Metro Water Services (MWS) in Davidson County or local municipal authorities in Williamson and Rutherford counties.
We handle all necessary permitting, code compliance, and inspection scheduling so your repair meets all local codes.
