As the El Dorado County seat, Placerville is right in the heart of our service area. We handle everything from a single slow bathroom drain to root-clogged main lines and the grease lines behind downtown's restaurants and commercial kitchens.
High-pressure water that scours grease, sludge, and tree roots out of main and grease lines.
Fast, reliable clearing of clogs in sinks, toilets, tubs, and floor drains.
See exactly what's in your pipes — ideal for older homes and home purchases.
Placerville is one of the oldest towns in the Sierra foothills, and a lot of its charm comes from older homes — many with sewer laterals made of aging clay or cast iron. Those older lines are exactly the kind that crack at the joints, build up scale, and invite tree-root intrusion from the area's mature oaks and pines.
Add foothill terrain and decades of buildup, and recurring slow drains are common around town. That's where hydro jetting earns its keep — instead of just punching a hole through a clog like a basic snake, it scours the full pipe wall clean. For any line with a history of trouble, a camera inspection first tells us exactly what we're dealing with before any work begins.
When more than one drain backs up at once (a toilet gurgles when the washer drains, or the lowest drain in the house overflows), the clog is usually in the main sewer line: the pipe that carries everything from the house out to the street or to your septic tank. It's the line we clean most often around Placerville.
We work from the cleanout, clear the line with hydro jetting or a cable machine depending on what it needs, and run the camera through afterward so you can see it's actually clear. Roots, grease, wipes, and scale come out, not just enough to get water moving again.
On septic? Plenty of homes around Placerville are. We clean the sewer line between the house and the tank. Leach fields are a job for a septic specialist, and we'll point you to one if the camera shows the problem is past the tank.
Placerville is our home base, and we cover the surrounding foothill communities too, including Diamond Springs, El Dorado, Camino, Pollock Pines, Shingle Springs, Cameron Park, and Coloma. Down the hill, we also serve El Dorado Hills, Folsom, and the greater Sacramento area.
With so much of Placerville's housing being older, a pre-sale or pre-purchase sewer camera inspection (starting at $325) is one of the smartest, lowest-cost moves you can make. It shows the real condition of the sewer line before closing — so a buyer isn't surprised by a five-figure repair, and a seller can fix or disclose issues up front.
