A sewer line failure ranges from a root intrusion that responds to clearing, to a collapsed pipe section that requires physical repair or lining.

Masters Plumbing Service's sewer techs in Lagunitas, CA run the camera first, show you exactly what's there, and recommend the repair method that actually resolves the specific failure.

Our Approach

Why Camera-First Diagnosis Matters for Your Sewer Line

Sewer line repair is expensive enough that you need to be absolutely certain what you're repairing and why before any ground is disturbed. Our CCTV-first approach protects you from misdiagnosis and unnecessary excavation costs.

📷

Camera Diagnosis Before Any Quote

We push a CCTV camera through your sewer line before recommending anything. The footage shows blockage type, joint conditions, pipe material, depth, and any structural defects — precisely located by distance from the cleanout. You see what we see.

Trenchless Pipe Lining — No-Dig Option

For sewer lines with root intrusion, cracked joints, or minor pipe deformation that haven't fully collapsed, CIPP (cured-in-place pipe) lining installs a structural epoxy sleeve inside the existing pipe without excavation. The liner bonds to the host pipe, seals every joint, and produces a smooth interior surface that resists future root infiltration.

⛏️

Excavation When Required — Done Properly

Precise camera locating means we dig where the problem is, not speculatively. We document the repair with post-repair camera footage and restore the excavation site to grade.

📋

Permitted Work & Written Documentation

Sewer line repair in most CA jurisdictions requires a permit and inspection. We pull the permit, coordinate the inspection, and provide you with camera footage, repair documentation, and inspection sign-off as a complete job record.

Our Services

Every Sewer Line Repair Scenario We Handle in Lagunitas, CA

Sewer line problems fall into distinct categories — each with its own repair approach. Here's how we handle each one.

Root Intrusion

Root Cutting & Mechanical Clearing

Root cutting is a temporary measure if the joints remain open. After cutting, we assess whether pipe lining to seal the entry points is warranted, or whether the joints are tight enough that regular maintenance clearing is the right long-term plan.

Structural Repair

Trenchless CIPP Pipe Lining

Cured-in-place pipe lining installs a flexible epoxy-saturated felt liner inside the existing pipe. The liner is inverted or pulled into position, inflated against the host pipe, and cured with hot water or steam. The result is a new, jointless pipe inside the old one — rated for 50+ years of service life.

Excavation

Open-Cut Sewer Line Replacement

When pipe sections have fully collapsed, when the pipe grade has reversed (creating a belly that holds standing sewage), or when root intrusion is too severe for lining to hold, traditional excavation is the correct repair. We locate the defect precisely on camera, mark the excavation footprint, call for utility locates, and dig to the pipe depth.

Diagnosis

CCTV Sewer Line Camera Inspection

Camera inspections are commonly requested by real estate buyers evaluating older homes in Lagunitas where sewer line condition is a known concern. Our written scope report is accepted by attorneys, insurers, and buyers' agents.

Emergency

Active Sewer Backup Response

Active sewage backup into a structure is an emergency requiring immediate response. We dispatch on an emergency basis, clear the blockage to restore drain function, contain and document the affected area, and schedule the camera scope to assess underlying cause — either same-day or at the earliest opportunity.

Preventive

Sewer Line Maintenance Program

Homes with known root-prone sewer lines benefit from scheduled root cutting and camera inspection on a 12–18 month cycle. This prevents the root mass from reaching a blockage point and gives you early warning of any joint deterioration that's progressing toward a structural repair need.

Our Process

4-Step Sewer Repair Process

Here's how a Masters Plumbing Service sewer line call plays out — from your first call to a repaired, flowing sewer.

Call & Emergency Dispatch if Needed

Tell our dispatcher what you're experiencing — backed up fixtures, gurgling drains, sewage smell in the yard, slow drainage across multiple fixtures — so we arrive prepared.

CCTV Camera Scope

You watch the footage with the technician. We point out each observation and explain what it means for repair options before presenting any quote.

Repair Method Selection & Quote

Based on camera findings, we present the repair options appropriate for what was found — clearing and maintenance, trenchless lining, spot excavation, or full replacement — with flat-rate pricing for each. We explain the trade-offs between methods clearly.

Repair, Post-Scope & Permit Closeout

Approved repairs proceed. After completion, we run the camera again to document the repaired state. For lining jobs, the post-cure scope confirms liner adhesion and full internal diameter. For excavation repairs, the scope confirms grade and joint quality.

Customer Reviews

What Lagunitas, CA Homeowners Say About Our Sewer Work

★★★★★

My main sewer line backed up on a Saturday. Masters Plumbing Service came out within 2 hours, cleared the blockage with a cable machine to restore drain function, then ran the camera. The footage showed root intrusion at three clay tile joints between 22 and 46 feet from the cleanout. They presented a trenchless lining option vs. spot excavation at each joint with pricing for both. I went with lining — completed on Monday, camera confirmed clean and sealed joints, permits closed the following week.

— G. Walsh, Lagunitas

★★★★★

We bought an older home in Lagunitas and wanted the sewer scoped before closing. Masters Plumbing Service ran the full line, found an offset joint at 58 feet creating a partial obstruction and some root infiltration at three additional joints. Written report in hand, we negotiated a $4,200 repair credit from the sellers before closing. The scope paid for itself many times over.

— L. & P. Brennan, Lagunitas, CA

★★★★★

Tree roots had invaded our sewer line every year for six years. Annual clearing costs were adding up. Masters Plumbing Service scoped, confirmed the root entry points, and lined the 70-foot residential run. No roots at the 18-month re-scope. The liner sealed every joint the roots had been using.

Common Questions

Sewer Line Repair Questions from Lagunitas, CA Property Owners

If a clearing has failed to hold more than 6–8 weeks, that's a signal the blockage is recurring due to a structural issue the clearing can't fix. A camera scope at that point is the right next step.

The qualifier is "installed correctly" — the liner must be properly saturated with resin, installed without voids or wrinkles, and cured to manufacturer specification. We verify cure quality with a post-cure camera scope that's part of every lining job we do.

We provide flat-rate quotes after the camera scope shows us exactly what we're working with. We never quote excavation or lining without camera footage confirming the failure type — and we don't pad quotes with contingencies for unknowns we can actually see on the recording.

This situation needs camera scoping and likely repair relatively promptly — an exfiltrating sewer line contaminating soil can attract roots aggressively, worsen over time, and in some cases create foundation issues if it's close to the structure.

The inspection is actually in your interest — it independently verifies that the repair meets code requirements for grade, joint sealing, and pipe depth.

The cases where excavation is unavoidable: completely collapsed pipe sections that can't maintain a liner during cure; pipe bellies (negative grade) that require physical grade correction; and situations where the access for lining equipment isn't practical for the specific pipe layout. We tell you honestly which category your line falls into after the camera scope.
