Sewer Line Leak Detection & Repair
Camera inspections, precise diagnosis, and expert repair of sewer line leaks. Minimize disruption to your property.
Professional Sewer Line Leak Detection & Repair in Orange County
Sewer line leaks are among the most serious plumbing problems a homeowner can face. A leaking sewer line can contaminate soil, damage your foundation, create sinkholes in your yard, and produce foul odors that make your property unpleasant. Early detection and repair are critical to preventing costly damage.
KCB Plumbing uses advanced sewer camera inspection technology to locate leaks precisely without unnecessary digging. Our high-resolution cameras travel through your sewer line, providing real-time video of the pipe's interior condition. We can identify cracks, joint separations, root intrusion, pipe bellies, and other defects that cause leaks.
Once we've located the problem, we offer multiple repair options — from targeted spot repairs to trenchless pipe lining that repairs the pipe from the inside. For severely damaged sections, traditional excavation and replacement may be necessary. We always present the most cost-effective option that provides a lasting solution.

How It Works
Initial Assessment
We discuss symptoms and inspect your property for signs of sewer line problems — wet spots, odors, lush patches of grass, or foundation issues.
Camera Inspection
A sewer camera is sent through the line to locate the leak and assess the overall condition of the pipe.
Diagnosis & Options
We review the camera footage with you, explain what we found, and present repair options with upfront pricing.
Repair
We complete the repair using the agreed-upon method — spot repair, pipe lining, or section replacement.

Common Questions
Sewer Line Leak Detection & Repair FAQ
What are the signs of a sewer line leak?
Common signs include: foul odors in your yard or near the foundation, unusually green or lush patches of grass, sinkholes or depressions in the yard, foundation cracks, slow drains throughout the home, and sewage backups. If you notice multiple signs, a camera inspection is recommended.
How much does sewer line repair cost?
Costs vary widely based on the repair method and extent of damage. Spot repairs for a single crack or joint typically range from $500 to $2,000. Trenchless pipe lining for larger sections may cost more. We always provide exact pricing after our camera inspection so you know the cost before we begin.
What is trenchless sewer repair?
Trenchless repair involves inserting a resin-coated liner into the existing pipe. The liner is inflated and cured in place, creating a new pipe within the old one. This method avoids digging up your yard, driveway, or landscaping and typically takes just one day.
How long do sewer line repairs last?
Quality sewer line repairs using modern materials last 50+ years. Trenchless pipe lining has a comparable lifespan to new pipe installation. We use premium materials and proven techniques to ensure your repair provides decades of reliable service.
Can tree roots damage my sewer line again after repair?
If the original entry point is sealed (through repair or lining), roots cannot re-enter at that location. However, roots may find other weak points in the line over time. We can recommend root barrier treatments and regular maintenance to minimize future root intrusion.
