Expert Sewer Line Replacement in San Jose And Surrounding Areas, CA
Sewer line replacement is one of the most serious repairs a homeowner in San Jose or the surrounding South Bay can face. At Gomez Sewer and Drain, we handle full sewer line replacements for residential properties across Campbell, Los Gatos, Palo Alto, Santa Clara, and Sunnyvale. Many homes in this area were built before 1980 and still have original clay or cast iron pipes. These older materials crack, corrode, and collapse under the pressure of Northern California's expansive clay soil, which shifts when it absorbs winter rain and contracts in dry summers. Seismic activity along nearby fault lines adds further stress to rigid underground pipes. We start every job with a video camera inspection to confirm the exact location and extent of damage. From there, we assess your property layout, pipe depth, and access points before recommending the right replacement method. Whether your line runs under a concrete driveway in Santa Clara or through a mature yard in Los Gatos, we plan the work to protect your property. Call Gomez Sewer and Drain to schedule your inspection.

FAQ
Sewer Line Replacement FAQ
Common questions about sewer line replacement in San Jose and Surrounding Areas, CA.
A video camera inspection tells us whether your pipe can be repaired or needs full replacement. Pipes that are collapsed, severely root-damaged, or missing sections in San Jose homes typically require replacement rather than a patch.
Not always. Depending on your pipe's condition and yard layout in Campbell, trenchless methods can replace the line through small access points without major excavation. We assess your specific property before recommending a method.
Yes, a proactive camera inspection is a practical step for any Palo Alto home built before 1980. Older clay and cast iron lines in this area are prone to cracking and root intrusion even before visible symptoms appear.
The most common causes in Los Gatos and across Santa Clara County are tree root intrusion, aging pipe materials like clay or cast iron, and soil movement from seismic activity. Clay-heavy soil that expands and contracts with seasonal rain also stresses underground joints over time.
It depends on where your line runs and what method we use. We evaluate your Sunnyvale property layout during the inspection and choose the approach that limits disruption to driveways, patios, and planted areas.
Call Gomez Sewer and Drain to schedule a video camera inspection for your Santa Clara property. The inspection confirms the condition of your line and gives us the information needed to provide an accurate scope of work.
