Most standard homeowners insurance policies in Johnstown do not cover sewer line repair due to normal wear and aging. However, sudden damage from events like tree root intrusion or ground shifting may be partially covered. Some carriers offer sewer line endorsements. We help Johnstown homeowners understand their coverage and provide documentation for claims that do apply.
We use a specialized waterproof camera that is inserted into your sewer line through a cleanout.

This lets us recommend the most cost-effective repair for your Johnstown property without any excavation.
Most residential drain cleaning jobs in Johnstown, NY take 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the severity of the clog and the number of drains affected. Main sewer line cleaning may take longer.
