"Steve was great to work with. He was knowledgeable, responsive and honest about the work we needed done. I talked with Steve after getting some astronomical quotes from other companies. He gave us a much more reasonable quote and timeline. He worked well with the City of Tacoma as they were installing a new main and riser in the street for our new line to connect to and I think the work was much less invasive as a result. I would recommend Steve to anyone needing sewer work done!"

"I called Rescue Rooter to come out and clear out a blockage in my sewer line. Chad and Albert came out quickly and got to work. They also put a camera down into the sewer line and had me watch as they went through the line. I saw the various problems in our one hundred year old sewer line. They spent a good deal of time examining the sewer line and also identifying the spot where it becomes a shared line with our neighbor. They presented a number of options of how to repair the deteriorating sewer line along with the different prices for that work. Chad and Albert both explained the different options clearly to my wife and I. They were very friendly and professional."

"I have used other plumbers before...none of whom did the work entirely to my satisfaction, and many of whom found ways to increase their "firm" quotes. I chose Drain Pro because of their almost perfect 5-star rating. I now know why they have that rating. The man who took my call was Raymond or Raman (Ramandeep Singh), the company president. He was pleasant, friendly, and gave me a reasonable ballpark quote (assuming no major problems). It was not the lowest estimate to do the job, but I wanted it done right. He arrived right on time. The only part of the job that went smoothly was the bathroom faucet replacement, and it went quickly. The kitchen sink partial-clog turned out to be several heavy accretions of hardened grease in one eight-foot section of pipe that had become CONcretions over the years -- some of the grease had come from previous owners...and likely some from us. He tried the big power-snake twice, but couldn't force the gizmo (heavy steel screw-spring) through the blockage. He slithered into the crawlspace to see if there were some abnormality in the pipes...nope. So up he came -- he took off the gizmo, and forced the bare cable-end through the blockages, back and forth several times -- ran the water to see if the blockage was gone...nope, even worse than before (he felt that some of the smaller blockages had moved, become a "log-jam"). He tried it again with the gizmo...nope. At this point he said there were only two good solutions: (a) cut out and replace the section of pipe with the hardened blockages; and (b) bring in the cavalry with special equipment and do a "hydro-jet" clean out -- both these processes would more than double his original bid. But just to be sure, he tried it once more with just the bare snake-end. And lo & behold, the blockage was gone! ...I hope. Raman said it could come back, and we could do the hydro-jet operation, if needed. Then he rebuilt a toilet (several small problems). The bolts holding the tank on were so bad he had to use a sawzall to cut them off. He replaced all the parts, installed the new flush mechanism, and it is now as silent as can be. Hallelujah! With all the problems he encountered, I expected a demand (or request) for more money. Nope. He stuck with his original bid. As I said at the top, his wasn't the low bid. But he did all the work correctly, kept everything spotless clean, and was friendly and cheerful throughout. Without any hesitation, I strongly recommend this company in general, and Raman in particular."

"Harts replaced all of our water and sewer lines and did a great job. Our crew was extremely courteous, professional, and respectful annd we trusted that they were treating our plumbing like their own. Jason did a great job leading the crew. It was a big project and we didnâ t quite know what to expect, but Jason was incredibly communicative and accommodating throughout the project and worked hard to ensure that we understood everything they were doing. They took extra care to minimize our service disruption which was greatly appreciated. We would absolutely recommend Harts!"

"Great customer service. Shared knowledge of what was being done and why. They even alerted me to a serious incorrect installation mistake that could have been a serious problem and costly repair very soon down the road and I had them fix it right away. I would hire Platinum plumbing in a flash should I need any other services or repairs."

"Hello. Mike came with his apprentice to replace my 53 year old water heater today. Mike was amazing and his apprentice Shawn was so helpful. I was truly blessed by Mike's presence with his commitment to excellence and sincere interest in my well being. He discovered many unexpected problems and resolved everything wanting to make sure everything was done perfectly. He took time to educate me throughout the whole job. He took time and care with every opportunity to educate and collaborate with his apprentice. His polite and patient demeanor was a gift. I know that all necessary work has been done to a high standard. I am a 72 year old woman without much family or help. The work done by Mike at Bob Larson plumbing has given me peace. The cost of my plumbing was the best of three bids and the best money I've ever spent! I am so grateful... I highly recommend Bob Larson Plumbing!"

FAQs for sewer main install, replace or repair projects in Lakewood, WA

Most trenchless sewer line replacements can be completed within one to three days, though this varies based on your situation. Simple repairs on accessible lines might be finished in hours, while complex systems or challenging soil conditions could extend the timeline. The reduced excavation requirements result in faster completion compared to traditional trenching methods.

Trenchless pipe lining may reduce the interior diameter of your pipes, which could affect flow capacity in already narrow lines. This method also requires the existing pipe to maintain sufficient structural integrity to support the new liner. Severely collapsed sections, major joint separations, or completely misaligned pipes might not be suitable candidates for lining and could require alternative approaches.

Trenchless sewer pipe liners are rated to last up to 50 years when properly installed and maintained. Actual longevity depends on installation quality, usage patterns, and environmental factors like soil movement or tree root intrusion. Regular maintenance and avoiding problematic disposal practices (like flushing non-biodegradable items) can help maximize your system's operational lifespan.

Trenchless technology availability varies by region, with greater accessibility in metropolitan and suburban areas where specialized contractors operate. Some rural locations may have limited access to trenchless equipment and expertise. Local regulations and soil conditions also influence availability. A professional assessment of your property and local contractor options will determine if trenchless methods are feasible for your specific location.

Professional video inspection provides the most reliable assessment of whether your sewer issues suit trenchless repair. Generally, pipes with moderate damage, like small cracks, minor leaks, or partial blockages, respond well to trenchless techniques. Completely collapsed sections, severe misalignments, or extensive structural failures might require traditional excavation. Consulting with contractors who offer both methods ensures you receive unbiased recommendations.

Quality trenchless sewer replacement often includes a workmanship guarantee from the contractor. The specific terms vary by company and region, but many professionals stand behind their installation for at least one year. Material warranties may extend longer, depending on the pipe products used. Always request written warranty information before hiring, and understand exactly what's covered and what might void your protection.
