Jackson Sewer Contractors

We Understand Jackson's Sewer Problems

Jackson, New Jersey, is a sprawling township in Ocean County, with a population exceeding 58,000 residents. The climate here features warm, humid summers and cold winters, which can affect the ground and underground infrastructure. Jackson’s diverse housing stock includes established neighborhoods with older homes—some dating back to the 1960s—and newer developments. This blend means encountering various pipe materials, such as older clay and cast iron pipes, which are susceptible to cracking and corrosion over time. The local soil conditions, often sandy or clayey, can also shift, putting stress on sewer lines.

AME Plumbing Heating and Cooling has been resolving Jackson’s most challenging sewer problems for many years. We know which neighborhoods have clay pipes from the 1960s that crack every winter. We understand where tree roots cause the most damage and which streets experience the most ground settling issues.

You are not receiving a generic repair crew who treats every job the same. You are getting local contractors who understand Jackson’s specific challenges and possess the appropriate equipment to handle them.

We are qualified and available when your urgent sewer situation cannot wait until Monday morning.

Sewer Line Repair Process

Here's What We Do

First, we perform a video pipe inspection through your sewer line to see exactly what is causing the problem. You observe the camera footage with us so you understand what needs fixing and why.

Next, we provide a detailed estimate that covers everything—labor, materials, permits, and cleanup. No surprises when the job is complete. We explain your options, from localized repairs to full line replacement, and help you select what makes sense for your situation and budget.

Then we begin work using the least disruptive method possible. Occasionally that means trenchless repair that does not destroy your driveway. Sometimes excavation is necessary, but we minimize the disruption and restore your property when we are finished.

Sewer Camera Inspection Services

What You Gain With Our Service

Every sewer line repair begins with our video pipe inspection, so you know you are paying to resolve the correct problem. We locate collapsed pipes, root intrusions, and blockages without guessing or unnecessary digging.

Our repair methods include traditional excavation, trenchless pipe lining, and pipe bursting—whatever your specific situation requires. We handle all permit applications and work with your insurance company if the damage qualifies for coverage.

You receive a warranty on our work because we use quality materials and proven methods. We also provide urgent service when your sewer line fails on weekends, holidays, or in the middle of the night—because sewage does not wait for business hours.

If multiple drains in your home are backing up simultaneously, you are likely dealing with a main sewer line problem, not merely a clogged drain. Other indicators include sewage odors emanating from drains, gurgling sounds when you flush, or water backing up in your basement floor drain. A single slow drain is typically a localized clog, but when your entire house experiences drainage issues, that points to your main sewer line. We use camera inspection to show you precisely what is happening in your pipes so you know whether you need a simple cleaning or major repair work.
Sewer line repair costs depend on the extent of damage, the depth of your line, and the repair method required. Localized repairs for small sections might cost $1,500–$3,000, while full line replacement can range from $8,000–$15,000 or more. Trenchless methods cost more initially but save money on landscaping and driveway restoration. We provide detailed estimates after our camera inspection reveals exactly what needs fixing. Many homeowner insurance policies cover sudden sewer line failures, so we assist you in determining if your situation qualifies for coverage before you pay out of pocket.
Most sewer line repairs take 1–3 days, depending on the scope of work. Simple localized repairs or trenchless lining can often be completed in a single day. Full line replacement with excavation typically takes 2–3 days, including cleanup and restoration. Urgent repairs to restore basic function can sometimes be done within hours; then we schedule follow-up work for a permanent solution. Weather, permit requirements, and the need to coordinate with utility companies can affect timing. We provide a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if anything changes during the job.
Not necessarily. We use trenchless repair methods whenever possible to minimize disruption to your property. Pipe lining and pipe bursting techniques allow us to repair or replace sewer lines through small access points rather than digging a continuous trench. However, some situations require traditional excavation—for example, when we need to repair connections, fix severe pipe damage, or work around other utilities. Our camera inspection helps us determine the best approach for your specific situation. When excavation is necessary, we restore your landscaping and hardscaping as part of the job.
Jackson’s older neighborhoods have clay and cast iron sewer pipes that crack and corrode over time. Tree roots from mature oaks and maples seek out these cracks and grow inside the pipes, causing significant blockages. Ground settling and freeze-thaw cycles also stress aging pipes until they collapse or separate at joints. Newer areas might have issues with improper installation or damage from construction activity. We also see problems from flushing inappropriate items or pouring grease down drains over many years. Our camera inspection identifies the specific cause so we can address both the symptoms and the underlying problem.
Yes, we provide urgent sewer repair service because sewage backups cannot wait for regular business hours. We respond to calls in the evenings, on weekends, and during holidays when your sewer line fails and threatens your health and property. Urgent service focuses on stopping the immediate problem—clearing blockages, pumping out backups, and restoring basic function so you can use your plumbing safely. We then schedule follow-up work for lasting repairs during normal hours. Urgent service rates are higher than regular appointments, but we are upfront about pricing when you call. Some situations genuinely cannot wait, and we are here when you need us most.
