Sewer Cleanout Installation & Repair
A sewer cleanout is the most important maintenance feature of your home’s drainage system. It is an access pipe that connects directly to your main sewer line, allowing plumbers to clear clogs and perform inspections without entering your home or removing plumbing fixtures. Sewer23™ provides expert sewer cleanout installation and repair in West Bloomfield and throughout Metro Detroit, making it easier and more affordable to keep your pipes flowing.
Why Many Michigan Homes Lack Cleanouts
In older communities like West Bloomfield and Farmington Hills, many homes were built before modern plumbing codes required exterior cleanouts. This means when a clog occurs, plumbers must drag heavy equipment through your living room or pull up a toilet to reach the main line. Installing an exterior cleanout eliminates the mess and significantly reduces the labor cost of every future drain cleaning.
The Benefits of a Modern Sewer Cleanout
Installing an accessible cleanout is an investment in your property’s infrastructure that pays for itself over time:
- Lower Maintenance Costs: Drain cleaning becomes a faster, one-person job with direct access to the pipe.
- Cleaner Service: No more dragging sewage-covered cables through your basement or primary bathroom.
- Hydro-Jetting Capability: Most high-pressure hydro-jetting equipment requires an exterior cleanout to effectively scrub the pipes.
- Code Compliance: Having an accessible cleanout is a requirement for many municipal inspections and real estate transfers.
- Easier Diagnostics: It provides a perfect entry point for HD camera inspections to monitor the health of your line.
Our Installation & Repair Services
We provide professional solutions for homes with missing, broken, or buried cleanouts:
1. Exterior Cleanout Installation
We excavate a small, targeted area near your foundation or property line to install a dual-wye PVC cleanout. This allows us to snake the line in both directions—toward the house and toward the city main.
2. Buried Cleanout Locating & Raising
If your home has a cleanout that was covered by landscaping or a driveway, we use electronic locators to find it and “raise” it to ground level for easy access.
3. Cleanout Cap & Pipe Repair
Broken cleanout caps can allow rocks, debris, and even rodents into your sewer line. We replace damaged caps and cracked vertical riser pipes to ensure your system remains sealed and safe.
4. Cast Iron to PVC Retrofitting
For older homes with rusted cast iron cleanouts, we can cut out the failing section and install a durable, modern PVC assembly that will last for decades.
