Sewage backing into your home is a Category 3 biohazard situation that needs to stop. But the right long-term fix โ clearing, trenchless lining, or excavation โ depends on what's causing it. Masters Plumbing Service uses CCTV cameras in Pomona to find out exactly what you're dealing with before any repair recommendation is made.

The repair method โ clearing, lining, or digging โ should follow from specific failure documentation. We show you that footage before you sign anything.
We push a CCTV camera through your sewer line before recommending anything. The footage shows blockage type, joint conditions, pipe material, depth, and structural defects โ precisely located by distance from the cleanout. You see what we see.
Trenchless lining costs significantly less than excavation in most scenarios and preserves landscaping, driveways, and hardscape. Not every sewer failure qualifies โ we tell you honestly when it does and when it doesn't.
Precise camera locating means we dig where the problem is, not speculatively. Post-repair camera confirms grade and joint quality before we close out.
This documentation matters for home sales, insurance claims, and warranty enforcement. We provide it as standard practice on every camera-scope job.
From a simple root clearing to full trenchless lining or spot excavation, our sewer crew in Pomona, NJ has the equipment and certification to execute.
Root cutting is a temporary measure if joints remain open. After cutting, we assess whether CIPP lining to seal the entry points is warranted, or whether regular maintenance clearing is the right long-term plan.

CIPP lining works on pipes with cracks, root intrusion at joints, and minor deformation โ as long as the host pipe can maintain the liner during curing. We assess liner candidacy from camera footage before committing to this method.
New pipe โ typically SDR-35 PVC at code-specified depth and grade โ is installed with proper joint couplings, backfilled, and surface-restored. Post-repair camera confirms grade and joint integrity.
Camera inspection reports are accepted by real estate attorneys, home buyers, and insurers as documented evidence of drain system condition. If you're buying or selling a home in Pomona, a pre-purchase drain scope is one of the best investments you can make.

The immediate goal of an emergency sewer call is stopping the backup. The camera and permanent repair follow once the situation is contained. We don't leave you with just a cleared drain and no plan for next steps.
Homes with known root-prone sewer lines benefit from scheduled root cutting and camera inspection on a 12โ18 month cycle. This prevents the root mass from reaching a blockage point and gives early warning of any joint deterioration progressing toward structural repair.
Here's how a Masters Plumbing Service sewer line call plays out in Pomona, NJ.
Tell our dispatcher what you're experiencing โ backed-up fixtures, gurgling drains, sewage smell โ so we arrive prepared with the right equipment.
We push the camera from the cleanout and run the full line to the municipal connection or septic tank, recording footage with distance markers. Blockage location, pipe material, joint condition, deformation, and grade issues are all documented.
For trenchless vs. excavation decisions, we lay out cost difference, disruption difference, and long-term outcome expectation for each option so you can make an informed choice.
Approved repairs proceed. After completion, we run the camera again to document the repaired state. For lining jobs, the post-cure scope confirms liner adhesion and full internal diameter. For excavation repairs, the scope confirms grade and joint quality.
Main sewer backed up on a Saturday. Masters Plumbing Service came out within 2 hours, cleared the blockage with a cable machine, then ran the camera. Found root intrusion at three clay tile joints between 22 and 46 feet from the cleanout. Presented trenchless lining vs. spot excavation with pricing for both. I chose lining โ completed Monday, camera confirmed sealed joints, permits closed the following week.
We bought an older home in Pomona and wanted the sewer scoped before closing. Masters Plumbing Service ran the full line, found an offset joint at 58 feet creating a partial obstruction and some root infiltration at three additional joints. Written report in hand, we negotiated a $4,200 repair credit from the sellers before closing. The scope paid for itself many times over.
Tree roots had invaded our sewer line every year for six years. Annual clearing costs were adding up. Masters Plumbing Service scoped, confirmed the root entry points, and lined the 70-foot residential run. No roots at the 18-month re-scope. The liner sealed every joint the roots had been using.
