The Basics
What Is Sewer Line Repair?
"Sewer line repair" covers any fix to a damaged sewer line running from your home or business to the main — and the right fix depends entirely on what's actually wrong with the pipe. At TDS Trenchless, a division of The Drain Surgeon, we treat this page as a starting point, not a single service: after a camera inspection, we'll point you to the specific method that fits your pipe, whether that's CIPP pipe lining, epoxy pipe coating, or traditional excavation repair. We've served the Augusta, GA area since 2005, and offered trenchless-specific sewer repair since 2011.
That routing role matters because getting the diagnosis right up front costs less than getting the method wrong. A liner installed in a pipe that's too far gone won't hold, and excavation on a line that could have been lined is disruption you didn't need. We'd rather run the camera first and tell you which one applies to your situation.
Why Trenchless
Why the Right Repair Method Matters
Sewer line repair is a broad, heavily searched term, and most of what shows up for it is aggregator directories and general plumbers, not a contractor explaining which method actually applies to your pipe. We'd rather be direct: if your line can be lined or coated without digging, we'll tell you that. If it's degraded past the point a liner or coating can bond to, we'll recommend excavation instead of trying to sell a fix that won't hold.
Our 6-person field crew and Kevin Coleman's GA Master Plumber license, MaxLiner CIPP installation certification, and SC Mechanical Contractor license mean the same crew that runs the camera can also complete whichever method the diagnosis points to — you're not handed off between separate inspection and repair companies.
The Detail
How We Diagnose and Repair Your Sewer Line
- 01Camera Inspectionwe run a camera through the line to see exactly where and how the pipe has failed.
- 02Diagnosis & Method Selectionwe match what the camera shows against the criteria for CIPP lining, epoxy coating, and excavation, and recommend whichever will actually hold.
- 03Repairwe complete the recommended method, using the confirmed process for that specific service.
- 04Verificationlined or coated lines get a final camera pass; excavated lines get backfilled and the site restored.
In Practice
Built for Augusta's Older Sewer Lines
Augusta has a lot of homes and commercial buildings on original sewer lines that are decades old — pipe that deserves an honest look before a fix is recommended, not a generic quote pulled from a national price list. This isn't the page where we try to out-rank directory sites for the broad 'sewer line repair' search nationally; Augusta homeowners searching that term are usually comparing us against listings like HomeAdvisor and Angi. What we can offer instead of a directory listing is a real diagnosis and a specific, sourced price for the method that applies to your pipe.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What does sewer line repair cost?
It depends on which method fits your pipe. CIPP pipe lining runs $75–$200/ft for 4-inch pipe and $100–$300/ft for 6-inch pipe, sewer line excavation starts at $60/ft, and epoxy pipe coating runs $125–$175/ft for 4–6 inch pipe. Every job starts with a free estimate, and we'll confirm exactly which method applies and quote it before any work begins.
Do you have to dig up my yard to repair a sewer line?
Not always. CIPP pipe lining and epoxy pipe coating are both no-dig methods that work inside your existing pipe. If the pipe is too degraded for either method to hold, we'll recommend excavation instead and explain why.
How do you decide which repair method is right for my sewer line?
We start with a camera inspection to see the exact condition of the pipe, then match what we find against the criteria for CIPP lining, epoxy coating, and excavation repair — recommending whichever method will actually hold, not the most expensive option.
Is a camera inspection required before sewer line repair?
Yes. Every sewer line repair starts with a camera inspection so we can confirm the cause and location of the problem before recommending a fix.
Do you offer emergency sewer line repair?
Yes — we offer extended hours scheduling with fast-turnaround service for sewer line failures that can't wait; see Emergency Sewer Line Repair for details. An after-hours dispatch carries a flat $125 surcharge.
What warranty do you offer on sewer line repairs?
It depends on the method used: a 10-year workmanship warranty on trenchless (CIPP) pipe repairs, a 10-year workmanship warranty on epoxy pipe coating, and a 1-year workmanship warranty on traditional excavation repairs.
What if my sewer line problem turns out to be on the city's side of the connection?
We'll tell you. If a camera inspection shows the issue is on the municipal side of the line rather than your own service line, that's outside our scope, and we'll let you know so you can contact the correct utility rather than pay for a repair that isn't ours to make.
