Drain cleaning, hydro jetting, sewer camera inspection, and trenchless sewer repair. Licensed, permitted, same-day response.
Martinez is the Contra Costa County seat and one of its oldest cities, with a historic waterfront downtown dating to the 1870s. The downtown core and Waterfront neighborhoods have the oldest sewer infrastructure in the county — vitrified clay and cast iron laterals from the 1880s–1920s now 100–140 years old. The Alhambra Valley and Vine Hill neighborhoods developed in the 1940s–60s. Martinez's historic commercial and residential downtown, its role as county seat, and its aging water table-adjacent infrastructure make it one of the most urgent drain and sewer service markets in Contra Costa County.

Mature trees in Downtown and Alhambra Valley treat clay and cast iron joints as a water source. If a cable truck has already been to this Martinez house once, the roots will be back. Jetting plus a liner, or a new lateral, is the lasting fix.
Martinez laterals take on groundwater through cracked joints. The first storm of the year is when many Contra Costa County homeowners find out. A camera in dry weather is cheaper than a Sunday sewage backup.
Martinez sits where groundwater stays in contact with the lateral. Outside-in infiltration ovalizes clay and rusts cast iron from the soil side. Jetting a round pipe helps. Jetting a collapsed one does not.
