Main drain excavation is the process of digging to access and repair or replace your home's main sewer drain pipe — the pipe that connects all your home's drains to the municipal sewer system. It is required when the pipe is severely cracked, collapsed, root-infested, or beyond the reach of standard cleaning methods. ### How do I know if I need main drain excavation? Common signs include multiple drains backing up simultaneously, persistent sewer odors, slow drains throughout the home, or a camera inspection that reveals a collapsed, severely cracked, or heavily root-invaded pipe that cannot be cleared by cleaning alone. ### Do you use a camera inspection before excavating? Yes. Before any digging begins, our team conducts a thorough video inspection to pinpoint the exact location and extent of the problem. This precision minimizes unnecessary disruption to your property and speeds up the repair process. ### How disruptive is the excavation process? We design our excavation process to be as non-invasive as possible, targeting only the affected area. After the repair or replacement is complete, the site is restored to its original condition, leaving no trace behind except a fully functional main drain system. ### How long does main drain excavation take? The timeline depends on the depth, length, and accessibility of the affected pipe. Most residential main drain excavation projects can be completed within one to two days. Our team will provide a clear timeline and upfront pricing before work begins. ### Do you offer main drain excavation services in Laval and on the South Shore? Yes. Plomberie 5 Étoiles provides main drain excavation services in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, Brossard, Terrebonne, Blainville and throughout the greater Montreal area.
