Overview
Why sewer line repair in Westchester starts with a camera
The sewer line is the one pipe every drain in the house depends on. When it blocks or breaks, wastewater has nowhere to go but back — into floor drains, tubs and the lowest fixtures first.
KBD handles sewer line repair across Westchester County, from Dobbs Ferry and the Rivertowns to Greenburgh, Yonkers, Scarsdale and White Plains. Our own sewer camera goes in first, so you see what’s wrong and where before anything is dug up. Repairs and any excavation are scoped project by project, and you get the findings and the price before work starts.

Questions
Sewer line repair: common questions
Still not sure? Phone us — asking costs nothing.
How do I know it’s the sewer line and not one drain?
One slow fixture is usually a local clog. Several drains failing together, or backups at the lowest point of the house, point to the main line. A camera inspection settles it before any sewer line repair in Westchester is priced.
Will you have to dig up the yard?
Not necessarily. The camera shows exactly what and where the problem is, so nothing is excavated on a guess. When digging is needed, it’s scoped and priced as its own project first.
Can tree roots really break a pipe?
Yes — roots find small gaps at pipe joints, grow inside the line and eventually block or split it. We cut them out and repair the section they entered through.
Does a sewer repair mean replacing the whole line?
Not when the rest of the line is sound. Often the damage is one cracked joint or one place where roots got in, and that section can be repaired on its own. A line that is failing along its length is better replaced. You see the camera footage and get the price for each option before anything is dug.
What if the sewer problem is in the city’s main in White Plains?
The City of White Plains runs its own separate wastewater sewer system through the DPW Bureau of Water & Wastewater: 914-422-1220, or the 24-hour emergency hotline, 914-422-1333. If our camera shows the blockage or break is in the city’s sewer main rather than in the sewer line serving your building, we will tell you so and point you to them instead of digging. A problem in your own line is the sewer line repair we do.

Sewer line repair in White Plains has one local wrinkle: DPW keeps the sanitary sewer separate from the storm sewer and checks it for sump pumps, roof leaders and cellar drains feeding in, so what is tied into the old line matters as much as the break.
