William from Ashton did a great job of fixing my plugged
drain at a fair price. He also did a free whole house

What is drain tile?

A drain tile system, also called a “French drain” or “weeping tile”, is a pipe that’s designed to collect water runoff and carry it away from your house. Located either in the interior or exterior perimeter of your home, a drain tile is basically a perforated pipe in a trench that’s wrapped in nylon fabric (to prevent the holes from clogging) and then covered in gravel.

You probably need to install a drain tile system (or repair your current one) if you see the following signs of drainage problems:

  • Puddles near your foundation
  • Water stains or cracks in your basement or crawlspace
  • Persistent puddles on your lawn
  • Mulch or soil erosion from water runoff

How to get your drain tile fixed

Your plumber will use a waterproof video camera to inspect your drain tile system. This helps us understand the extent of the damage, so we can recommend whether to repair the damage or install new drain tile.

On the day of the repair or replacement, our team of plumbers will:

  • Dig to your drain tile line, shoring the trench or your home if necessary.
  • Repair your existing drain tile or install the new one, depending on the extent of the damage.
  • Test your drain tile to make sure it works properly.
  • Leave your home and yard in better condition than we found it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long it takes to repair a sewer line depends on a few factors such as the location of the pipe, the size of the pipe, and the type and extent of damage that has occurred. That being said, most sewer line repairs take one to three days to complete. However, more complex repairs can take up to a week to complete.

The cost to clear a main sewer line depends on its size, location, and how clogged the pipe is. To get a quote on how much it will cost to clear your main line, call Ashton Plumbing Heating and Air Conditioning to have a certified plumber come out to your property and have a look at your main sewer line.

Over time toilet paper and other debris can clog up a sewer line as they get snagged on the tree roots that often infiltrate sewer lines. Flushing sanitary products, feminine hygiene products, facial tissues, paper towels, or even extra-thick toilet paper can severely clog up your sewer line over time. It is best to avoid flushing anything down your toilet other than toilet paper to avoid unnecessary sewer line clogs.

The answer to this question largely depends on the cause of the sewer line problem. Usually, homeowners insurance will only cover damages caused by “sudden and accidental” events such as fire, lightning, windstorms, and vandalism/theft. Sewer line damage that is caused by long-term deterioration or normal wear and tear is typically excluded. So, if the sewer line issue is due to something like tree roots growing into pipes or blockages caused by mineral build-up, insurance will likely not cover it.

The best way to prevent future issues with your sewer line is to have it inspected on a regular basis. Regular maintenance and cleaning can also help extend the life of your sewer pipes and reduce the risk of problems developing in the future. Additionally, ensuring that tree roots are not growing near the sewer lines can help keep them free from obstruction.

Yes, there are several considerations to take into account when completing sewer line repairs. It’s important to consider the size of the pipe, the material it is made from, and any potential obstructions that may need to be present. Additionally, some methods may require permits or special tools.
