Yes. Scranton Sewer Authority offers preventive sewer and drain maintenance programs for Petersburg property owners including scheduled line cleaning, annual camera inspections, and grease trap service for commercial kitchens.

We use a specialized waterproof camera that is inserted into your sewer line through a cleanout. The camera transmits real-time video that shows us the exact location and nature of any blockage, crack, offset joint, or root intrusion. This lets us recommend the most cost-effective repair for your Petersburg property without any excavation.
We provide 24/7 emergency sewer and drain response throughout Petersburg and surrounding Virginia communities. Our crews typically arrive on-site within 60 to 90 minutes of your call. Sewer backups are health hazards that worsen quickly, so rapid response is critical to protecting your property and your family.
Absolutely. Tree root intrusion is one of the most common causes of sewer line damage in Petersburg, VA. Roots seek out moisture and can penetrate tiny cracks or joints in sewer pipes, eventually causing blockages and pipe collapse. Our crews remove roots with hydro jetting and can reline pipes to prevent future intrusion.
Recurring clogs in Petersburg homes are usually caused by grease buildup inside drain lines, tree root intrusion into sewer pipes, pipe bellies or offsets that trap debris, or undersized plumbing. A sewer camera inspection identifies the root cause so we can fix the real problem, not just clear the symptom temporarily.
