Sewer Line Repair starts with finding the actual cause.
Inspection and repair options for recurring backups, damaged sewer lines, and root intrusion. Similar symptoms can have very different causes, which is why we inspect the affected system before recommending work. Haha's explains the findings in plain language and gives you the available choices before an approved repair or installation begins.
Signs It is Time to Schedule Service
- Repeated sewer backups even after cleaning
- Sinkholes, soggy patches or lush green strips in the yard along the line
- Camera inspection showing cracks, offsets, bellies or collapsed sections
If you see sewage on the floor or smell strong sewer gas indoors, stop using water, ventilate the space and call right away.
What Can Cause the Problem?
Sewer lines fail from root intrusion, age and corrosion, ground movement, poor original grade or damage from construction. Older clay and cast iron lines are most prone to cracking and joint separation.
How We Diagnose Sewer Line Repair
We run a camera through the line to locate the problem and its depth, then confirm the condition of the rest of the run. That determines whether a spot repair, a lining or a replacement fits, and what digging, if any, will be needed.
- 1ListenWe document what changed, when it began, and whether the problem is intermittent.
- 2TestWe check the system in a logical order and verify the failed condition.

Repair, Installation, and Cost Factors
Cost depends on the length and depth of the repair, access, surface restoration, the repair method and local permits. A spot repair costs far less than a full replacement, which is why the camera comes first.
We explain the options, what each involves and the tradeoffs before you decide. The $89 diagnostic fee is waived with an approved repair.
Built for Kansas City Conditions
Tree roots and aging lines in older neighborhoods make sewer repairs common in the Kansas City area. Catching a failing section before it collapses keeps the repair smaller.
