What Walterhill houses mean for the pipe underneath
Out past the sewer mains, a house sends its waste to a septic tank and a field in the yard, and most of our work there is pumping, inspecting and repairing those instead of clearing a city lateral.
Late-eighties and nineties houses have PVC laterals that seldom break, and the calls here are bellies where the backfill settled under the pipe and cleanouts buried under thirty years of landscaping.
Near the river, a public main that surcharges in a flood pushes back up every lateral without a backwater valve, and fitting one where the line leaves the house keeps the flood out of the lowest floor drain.
A shop, a barn apartment or a pool house with its own bathroom has its own drain line, often long and shallow and sometimes ending at a small ejector pump, and those lines get forgotten until one backs up.
On flat ground a sewer line has very little fall to work with, so a small sag stops the flow and lets solids settle, and our repairs here are set to grade with a laser instead of by eye.

Why Walterhill homes call us about their drains
Past the reach of the sewer mains, much of rural Maury, Robertson, Cheatham, Sumner, Wilson, Rutherford and Williamson counties runs on septic laid in clay that takes water slowly. A field in that soil saturates in a wet spring, and the first sign is often a sluggish drain inside the house.
- Water rising in the tub when a toilet flushes
- A floor drain that gurgles as the washer empties
- The lowest drain in the house backing up first
- A line that clears with a cable and closes within weeks
Cabling the same line every spring. A cable cuts a hole through roots and leaves the mass in the pipe. When a stoppage returns on a schedule, the next visit should bring a camera.
