Detroit Customer Reviews

★★★★★

Honest guys. I thought I needed a new water heater; turned out it was a $120 part. They could have sold me a new one and didn't.

— Steve P., Detroit, MI
★★★★★

Used them for a whole-house repipe of our old galvanized pipes. Two days, minimal wall openings, pressure is amazing now and no more rusty water.

— Miguel A., Detroit, MI

Emergency call on Christmas Eve for a burst pipe. They answered, they came, they fixed it. That's all you can ask.

Sewer Backup in Detroit — Frequently Asked Questions

Why is sewage backing up into my Detroit basement?

Usually a blocked main sewer line — tree roots, grease, wipes or a collapsed pipe. In some Detroit neighborhoods heavy rain can also overwhelm combined sewers. A camera inspection tells us which.

How quickly can you respond to a sewer backup in Detroit?

Sewer backups are top priority. We dispatch 24/7 across Detroit and Wayne County and aim to be on site within the hour.

Can you prevent future backups?

Yes — options include a backwater valve, scheduled root cutting or hydro jetting, and replacing damaged sections of line with trenchless methods.

Is sewer backup cleanup included?

We clear the line and stop the backup. For sanitizing and restoration we coordinate with reputable cleanup companies serving Detroit.
