Ramos And Sons Plumbing | Plumbing Services in Fullerton, CA 92833

In Fullerton, many older trees have extensive root systems that seek out moisture, often invading and cracking sewer pipes. At Ramos And Sons Plumbing, we first use a video camera inspection to locate the exact point of intrusion. Depending on the damage, we can often clear the roots with a hydro-jetter and then repair the pipe using a trenchless, cured-in-place liner, which seals the pipe from the inside without major excavation. For severe cases, we perform a full sewer line replacement to prevent future problems.

A sudden increase in your water bill is a common sign of an outdoor irrigation leak, especially in Fullerton's older sprinkler systems. We start by checking your water meter for continuous flow when no water is being used inside. Our technicians then perform a systematic pressure test on your irrigation lines and use specialized listening devices to pinpoint the exact location of underground leaks. Once found, we repair the damaged section, often replacing it with more durable materials to withstand local soil conditions.

Prevention starts with regular maintenance. We recommend scheduling a professional plumbing inspection and sewer line cleaning with hydro-jetting every 18-24 months. For homes with large trees near the sewer line, we can also install a root barrier during a repair or replacement. Using trenchless pipe lining for repairs creates a seamless, jointless pipe interior that roots cannot easily penetrate. Our team can assess your property's specific risks and recommend a proactive plan to protect your sewer line.
