What to Expect from Our Sewer Repair Services

Our Comprehensive Sewer Line Install and Repair Services:

  • Can be done with minimum excavation, saving your property from re-landscaping.
  • Are able to be completed under concrete slab floors and foundations.
  • Can add value to your property, thanks to a 50-year-plus design life on our epoxy repair or a 100-year lifespan of our corrosion-proof polyethylene replacement pipe.
  • Are fully-licensed and insured, with over two decades worth of experience.

Before starting work, we conduct a thorough site assessment. We use advanced diagnostic technology to locate the issue accurately, allowing us to recommend repair solutions that comply with Sacramento building codes and environmental guidelines. When public utility lines and permitting requirements affect the project, we coordinate with local agencies as needed. Staying up to date with municipal rules and inspection processes helps ensure a smooth project for every customer.

Top-Quality Drain Repair without Disturbing Your Property

When we use trenchless drain repair and installation, we assess the condition of your current drain lines before selecting a method. In most cases, our crew performs trenchless pipe realigning, which involves installing a new sewer liner directly inside the existing damaged pipe.

  • This liner eliminates joints to increase flow and is designed to last well over 50 years, adding value to your property.
  • The epoxy material molds to the host pipe, stops leaks and root intrusion, and can go under concrete slab floors and foundations—it also adapts to non-standard pipe shapes and sizes, from 1.5 to 8 inches.

Trenchless repair practices help protect Sacramento’s tree-lined neighborhoods and preserve original landscaping by limiting impact on lawns and sidewalks. This approach works especially well in areas where property owners want to preserve large trees, pathways, or older driveways. By working below ground, we restore your drainage function while keeping your property looking its best.

If we cannot save your current pipe, our team uses pipe bursting, which involves digging small entry and exit points at either end of the damaged section. We pull a steel cable through the existing pipe, connect a splitting wedge to one end, and attach a hydraulic puller to the other. This process breaks up the old pipe and installs a new corrosion-proof polyethylene pipe in its place—offering a zero leak rate and up to a 100-year lifespan.

Common Drain Problems in Sacramento Homes

Many Sacramento homes face plumbing challenges that require prompt drain repair. Older neighborhoods often contain aging clay and cast iron pipes, which can shift, crack, or become blocked by mineral deposits from city water. Large tree roots, especially from mature oaks and elms, may encroach on sewer and drain lines, causing leaks or persistent blockages. Residents often see slow drains, bubbling sounds, or sudden sewer backups, which could all point to underlying issues that need professional drain repair in Sacramento.

Fluctuating groundwater levels and drought cycles in the Sacramento Valley can shift soils beneath foundations and driveways, putting extra stress on drain pipes. This movement can speed up pipe deterioration or misalignment, which in turn causes recurring clogs or leaks. Handling these matters quickly helps prevent property damage, improves plumbing performance, and safeguards your living environment. When you work with Zoom Drain of Northern California, you benefit from our understanding of local soil, climate, and construction, allowing us to address root causes and deliver stronger long-term outcomes.

We had Kyle help us with a clogged main line. He was so kind and so informative and thorough! He walked my husband through his process and explained why we were having issues and cleared the clog. Not gonna lie, it's expensive, packages begin at the $400 range, but we're really happy with our experience with this company and Kyle. We'll definitely call them again if need be.
Jen C.
Zoom is an outstanding company 24/7 with very friendly, competent, and very efficient staff. I am amazed. Called at 9:30 p.m. … the call center person got my information accurately and quickly. The dispatcher called me 10 min later with a proposed time slot. Then Kyle the technician who came during the promised time window confirmed my diagnosis and proposed 4 options from $320 to $650. Helped select the best package … got it done and performed the treatment and even gave me some advice on what I can do to minimize future drain clogs. The clog was at 35 feet distance… so there was no way I could have solved the problem alone. Very impressed. I strongly recommend Zoom Drain.
Christian Renaudin
Bill arrived right on time, quickly determined the situation and got to work. It was a challenging clog but he kept at it and finally had success. Great service, same-day response, and a satisfied customer. I recommend Zoom Drain. Once again we had a drain issue and called Zoom Drain. Kyle and Will arrived and quickly determined the problem. Again, great service, fabulous employees, and a very satisfied customer. I highly recommend Zoom Drain. Almost 2 years and again had a drain issue. Thankfully, Kyle arrived and immediately knew what the problem was (same as the last time he was here). He resolved the issue (actually a city problem with roots in their line) and offered a helpful suggestion on how to keep the root problem in control. Zoom Drain and Kyle are top notch in service and professionalism. 5+ Stars again.
John Clark
Maurice was so professional. He explained everything and completed the job while answering our questions about the process. I would not hesitate to call Zoom Drain again if we had any issues. Thanks Maurice!!
Diane Sabo
Kyle was the technician who came to service my home. He was knowledgeable about what I needed to resolve my issue, and he resolved it. My home was built in the '50s, so that care needed to maintain the plumbing in my home is heightened. I appreciated his service and candor.
Raoul Francis
Maurice came out on a Saturday responding to my call to Zoom Drain. He snaked out the sewer drain line under our house and the sewer line from the exterior of our house to the street. He cleared the blockage under the house and snaked out a root thatch somewhere in the outside line. He explained everything clearly to me and showed me the video evidence of the cleared lines in both directions. Great job!
Charles Perry
I was so impressed with how fast Kyle was able to come out to our house to help fix our problem. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure we got the best price possible.
Kim Trylovich
Maurice was the person who came to fix my drainage issue. He was here within a few hours. While he was fixing my problem, he discovered another potentially bigger problem that needs to be addressed by my HOA. He was able, in spite of the other issue, to quickly get me up and running again. He was very courteous, friendly, and wore his paper booties! Thank you again Maurice!
kathy sartain
We were referred to Zoom Drain by BZ Plumbing here in Lincoln. The young lady on the phone was professional, upbeat, and scheduled us promptly. The technician, Maurice, diagnosed the reason for the 'backup' and took the necessary steps to remedy the situation... all the while informing and showing us the problems and the progress. Nothing but compliments for a job well done!
Kent Chilcot
Maurice came out on a Saturday to service the bathroom plumbing. He fixed the main problem quickly and then found a new problem, which he was quick to give solutions for and talk to management about services and fees. He was very professional, patient, and cleaned up the bathroom mess perfectly before he left the property. Very happy with services by the company and by Maurice. Thank you.
Desiree Franco

Tyler was very professional, kept me informed, and completed the job in a timely manner.
Barbara Richard
Glad I called them for a second opinion. The plumber was informative and took care of the issue at a much more affordable price without pushing unnecessary services. Just wish they were better with using time windows for the appointment.
Catherine Enfield
I wish I went to Zoom Drain first! You should, to save time and money. I know who I will call going forward. I used another business before for something else. While they were good and had 24/7 availability, they charge $95 just to come out. Zoom Drain offered to come out and look at my yard pipe (there was water build-up from all this rain and it just seemed a bit clogged) without any charges. And it looks like I’m just at the cusp of their service, so I’m super glad I found them. So with my pipe, with all the rain there was some water build-up. It didn’t seem too bad, so I went with the cheapest quote (should have known better) since I figured it’s just to snake the drain/pipe. As soon as that other person/business came out, it went from $93 to $250… then they told me they couldn’t do it, and I had to hydro jet for about 3 times more the cost than Zoom Drain! Or to replace my pipes altogether for $8000!!!!!!! Given they had very little review, I wanted a second opinion and additional quotes. I know Zoom Drain would come out free of charge, so I immediately contacted them, and they came out the same day! Literally just a couple of hours after I contacted them. Maurice came out, and he was professional, patient, just super duper nice. He explained why there was water build-up and how it’s normal! Basically, my drain for my yard pipes is just too high up on my front yard, and places like San Francisco even drill holes into the sidewalk to drain. But as long as I’m not flooded anywhere, there’s no issue. He checked everything, and even if I needed to hydro jet, it was about 1/3 of the cost the other place quoted me! He didn’t even offer to snake my drain since the other business tried but “failed” and told me I needed to replace my pipes. 😒😒 I did end up asking Maurice to run diagnostics; he tested all my drains and everything was working normally. And that’s it. Saved myself a whole bunch of money. Would have saved myself a lot of time/stress too if I just went to them in the first place. Lesson learned. All I can say to Zoom Drain is: thank you thank you thank you! And a big thanks to Maurice!
