Sewer and Drain Services
When your home or business experiences recurring drain clogs, foul odors, or water pooling in the yard, the problem may go deeper than you think. Many Los Angeles properties — especially in Van Nuys, North Hollywood, Glendale, Burbank, and Pasadena — have aging clay, cast-iron, or corroded sewer lines that are prone to root intrusion and collapse.
At Drain Solutions Plumbing Co, we specialize in professional sewer line repair Los Angeles homeowners and business owners can trust. From precision diagnostics to trenchless sewer repair Los Angeles solutions, our goal is to restore your plumbing system quickly, cleanly, and cost-effectively.
A damaged sewer line can show warning signs long before a total failure. Common indicators include:
If you’re seeing any of these signs, schedule a camera inspection to confirm the problem and prevent a total line failure.
Los Angeles’ diverse terrain and older neighborhoods make sewer issues especially common north of the 134 Freeway. Many homes in Van Nuys, North Hollywood, and Burbank still rely on decades-old sewer lines that have shifted, cracked, or been invaded by tree roots seeking moisture.
Ground movement, temperature fluctuations, and heavy rainfall can worsen the problem—causing misalignments or full pipe collapse. Businesses in Pasadena and Glendale often face similar issues due to aging infrastructure.
Every property and pipe system is unique. That’s why we follow a step-by-step process:

Schedule Sewer Line Inspection
If you have frequent backups across multiple drains, strong sewer odors, or slow drains despite cleaning, you may need repair or replacement. A video camera inspection is the best way to know for sure.
Trenchless sewer repair uses advanced pipe-bursting or pipe-lining techniques that avoid full excavation. It’s ideal when your line is cracked or invaded by roots but not completely collapsed.
Traditional replacements can take several days, while trenchless repairs are often completed in a single day — saving you time, labor, and restoration costs.
Yes. The new pipe (typically epoxy-lined or HDPE) is corrosion-resistant and can last 50 years or more.
Absolutely. We serve both homes and commercial properties, including restaurants, retail centers, and apartment complexes throughout North Hollywood, Glendale, and surrounding areas.
Costs depend on pipe length, depth, and repair type. After our camera inspection, we provide a clear, upfront estimate — no surprises.
Traditional sewer line repair usually requires extensive excavation. Our trenchless sewer repair Los Angeles service, on the other hand, fixes or replaces the damaged line through small access points—preserving landscaping, driveways, and concrete.

Trenchless sewer repair and replacement in Los Angeles allows us to restore full sewer function without tearing up your lawn, driveway, or landscape.

Trenchless technology lets us repair or replace those damaged lines quickly and efficiently — without the mess of large-scale excavation.
These trenchless sewer repair Los Angeles methods are cleaner, faster, and more cost-effective. Because we work through small access points, your trees, plants, or pavement won’t be disturbed, and you won’t have to spend extra restoring your yard afterward.
