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

The repair method β clearing, lining, or digging β 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 β precisely located by distance from the cleanout. You see what we see.
For sewer lines with root intrusion, cracked joints, or minor pipe deformation that haven't fully collapsed, CIPP lining installs a structural epoxy sleeve inside the existing pipe without excavation. The liner seals every joint and resists future root infiltration.
Fully collapsed pipe sections, severe pipe belly (negative grade), and pipe offset too severe to line require physical excavation. We locate the defect precisely on camera, mark the dig site, call for utility locates, excavate cleanly, replace the failed section, and backfill and restore the surface.
Sewer line repair in most IN jurisdictions requires a permit and inspection. We pull the permit, coordinate the inspection, and provide camera footage, repair documentation, and inspection sign-off as a complete job record.
Sewer line problems fall into distinct categories β each with its own repair approach. Here's how we handle each one.
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 installs a flexible epoxy-saturated felt liner inside the existing pipe. Inflated against the host pipe and cured with hot water or steam, the result is a new, jointless pipe inside the old one β rated for 50+ years of service life.
New pipe β typically SDR-35 PVC at code-specified depth and grade β 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 Edgewood, 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.
A maintenance record documenting each cleaning and camera finding is useful evidence for insurance claims and demonstrates proactive maintenance if a catastrophic failure occurs.
Here's how a Masters Plumbing Service sewer line call plays out in Edgewood, IN.
Tell our dispatcher what you're experiencing β backed-up fixtures, gurgling drains, sewage smell β so we arrive prepared with the right equipment.
You watch the footage with the technician. We point out each observation and explain what it means for repair options before presenting any quote.
Based on camera findings, we present the repair options appropriate for what was found β clearing, CIPP lining, spot excavation, or full replacement β with flat-rate pricing for each. We explain the trade-offs between methods clearly.
Required permits are closed out with the local inspection. You receive camera footage, written scope report, permit inspection sign-off, and warranty documentation.
Had a sewer problem that two other companies cleared without scoping. It backed up again within 8 weeks both times. Masters Plumbing Service scoped before doing anything and found a significant pipe belly at 34 feet holding standing water β that's why clearing kept failing. They excavated precisely, replaced a 4-foot section, confirmed grade on camera after backfill. No recurrence.
Pre-purchase scope. Tech ran the camera, gave clear narration on footage, and identified that the main cast iron line had interior corrosion narrowing the pipe to about 60% of original diameter. Used that report to request the sellers replace the line β and they did.
Commercial building where two prior companies told us we needed full excavation at $28,000. Masters Plumbing Service scoped it, found root intrusion and joint cracking but no pipe collapse, and quoted trenchless lining at roughly a third of that cost. Lining completed in two days. Post-cure scope confirmed excellent adhesion. The camera diagnosis saved us a significant amount of money.
