Sewage backing up? Recurring drain problems? We camera-inspect, clear, and repair sewer lines — with trenchless options that don't destroy your yard.
High Point's established neighborhoods — Emerywood, Sherwood Forest, the corridors along Greensboro Road and Old High Point Road — have some of the most beautiful tree canopies in the Triad. They also have some of the most aggressive root intrusion into sewer laterals in Guilford County. Oaks, maples, and sweet gums seek water at the pipe joints in 50–70-year-old cast iron and clay laterals, and once roots are established, they grow back after snaking within months.
We camera-inspect before we recommend. A sewer scope takes 20 minutes and shows us exactly what you're dealing with — root intrusion we can jet and treat, a pipe belly we need to monitor, or a collapsed section that needs trenchless repair. You see the video. You understand what you're paying for. No guessing, no upselling on work that isn't needed.
📞 Call Now — 336-422-7560If sewage is actively backing up, we walk you through stopping water use to prevent overflow while we dispatch to your location.
We run a waterproof camera through the main line. You see exactly what we see — root intrusion, pipe belly, crack, or collapse. This drives the recommendation.
Blockage: hydro jetting at full pressure. Structural damage: trenchless lining or pipe bursting if viable. Collapse: targeted excavation and section replacement.
After clearing, we review what caused the problem and provide a maintenance plan — whether that's annual jetting, RootX treatment, or monitoring.

We don't guess on sewer line problems. Camera inspection is standard — you get a visual diagnosis before any work begins.
Whenever the pipe condition allows, we use trenchless methods — no excavating your yard, no destroying your driveway.
Hydro jetting plus RootX foam treatment addresses both the current blockage and slows regrowth — reducing your service frequency.
Recurring sewer backups every 3 months for two years. Previous plumbers just snaked it. Triad ran a camera, showed me massive root intrusion in the lateral under my Emerywood property, and hydro jetted with root killer. No backup in 14 months.
Bought an older home and had a sewer scope done before closing. Triad found a cracked section under the slab. We negotiated $4,200 off the purchase price and fixed it right after closing. Invaluable.
Sewage in the basement on a Sunday evening. They were there in 50 minutes, cleared the main line, and stayed to make sure everything was draining before they left. Professional start to finish.
You own the sewer lateral from your home's foundation to the point where it connects to the city main — typically at or near the property line or street. High Point Water Resources owns and maintains the main. So if the problem is in your yard or under your house, it's your repair.
A camera inspection sends a waterproof camera through the sewer lateral, recording the interior condition in real time. For any recurring drain problem, any pre-purchase inspection, or any home over 20 years old, it's essential. Cost is $175–$300 and can save you from spending $600 on jetting a pipe that actually needs structural repair.
In many cases, yes. Trenchless pipe bursting pulls a new pipe through the old one without a full trench — only access pits at each end. CIPP lining creates a new pipe inside the old one with no excavation. These methods are viable when the pipe is intact enough to use as a guide. Camera inspection tells us which approach is appropriate.
For High Point homes in neighborhoods with mature trees — especially Emerywood, Sherwood Forest, and the older Guilford County areas — we recommend annual inspection and jetting every 1–2 years if root intrusion is present. For newer homes without significant tree pressure, every 3–5 years as preventive maintenance.
Root intrusion is the primary cause in older, established neighborhoods. Grease accumulation is the primary cause in kitchen-drain-heavy situations. Pipe belly (a sag in the line where solids collect) is common in older cast iron and clay pipes. And FOG (fats, oils, grease) from cooking is a major driver regardless of home age — it flows liquid but solidifies inside the pipe.
