Get a free sewer repair estimate in Denver

Call or send the form

The fastest route is the phone, (720) 606-6223, where a person takes the address, the symptom and the best time to look at the line. The form on this page does the same job and is answered within one business day, usually sooner. Either way the request lands with the verified installer covering Denver, the verified installer for the Denver area, and the next step is a scheduled camera visit rather than a sales call. Houses, apartment buildings, restaurants, warehouses and plants anywhere in Denver and across Denver County are covered, along with the surrounding Front Range communities.

What to have ready

• The address and the year the building was built, if known. In Denver that single fact narrows the likely pipe material to clay, Orangeburg or cast iron before anyone arrives.
• The symptom and its history: a slow floor drain, a gurgling toilet, a backup after heavy rain, a sewer smell in the yard, or a jetting bill that keeps recurring.
• Any previous inspection video or report, including a sewer scope from a home purchase. An existing recording can save a visit.
• Where the cleanout is, if you know, and whether the main runs in the alley or the street. Many older Denver lots drain to the alley.
• For a business or a plant, the hours when a line can be taken out of service and the name of whoever manages the building.

The inspection visit

A technician arrives at the agreed time, locates the access point, and sends a camera from the house to the main while a receiver on the surface marks the path and depth of the pipe. If the line is blocked, it is cleared first so the camera can pass. The run takes under an hour for a typical lateral and longer for a building with several drains. You can watch the screen while it happens, and the technician narrates what the pipe is made of, where the trouble is and how deep it sits. That matters in Denver, where the worst defect is often under the alley apron or the sidewalk, and knowing its exact position decides whether the fix is a liner from the cleanout or a small pit at the property line.

What you receive

Before any approval is requested you are given the recording, a short written finding that lists the pipe material, each defect by footage and depth, and the recommended method, and an itemized quote tied to that finding. The quote names the method, the length treated, the access points, the permit fees for the Sewer Use and Drainage Permit and any right-of-way permit, and the warranty on the finished work. If two methods are reasonable, for instance lining versus bursting a marginal Orangeburg run, both are priced and the trade-off is explained. Nothing in the proposal depends on a symptom you described over the phone; it depends on the video. The methods themselves are described without sales language at the CIPP reference, which is a useful second opinion on what the technician recommends.

After you approve

The installer files the permits, which in the city go through the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure, and schedules the work around your access and, for a business, your operating hours. You are told the water-off window in advance. On the day, the line is cleaned, the repair is installed, a second camera pass documents the finished pipe, and that video, the permit sign-off and the warranty are delivered to you. For a sale in progress, the package can be forwarded to the buyer's agent or inspector the same day. Most single-family laterals in Denver are completed in one working day, in any season, because the pipe sits below frost and the work happens inside it.

If you only want a second opinion

Owners who already hold a quote, often a dig-and-replace quote from a general plumber, are welcome to send the existing video and have the trenchless alternative priced against it. The directory of installers verified to the same standard is public at the verified installer directory, and the Denver listing is the one this site routes to.
