Sewer & Drain Service in Detroit, Michigan

Detroit's sewer infrastructure is among the oldest in Michigan, with many lateral lines dating back 80 to 100 years. Clay pipe failures, root intrusion through cracked joints, and storm drain blockages caused by decades of sediment buildup are everyday realities for Detroit homeowners and commercial property managers.

Detroit Sewer Co. has worked extensively throughout Detroit neighborhoods from Southwest to East side, clearing severe backups and cleaning storm lines that serve large warehouse and retail complexes.

Sewer Conditions in Detroit

Detroit's residential neighborhoods range from historic Mexicantown and Corktown to East English Village and Indian Village, each with aging sewer infrastructure that varies by decade of construction. Properties with extended lateral runs across large lots require jetting equipment reaching beyond 200 feet without losing pressure. Commercial corridors along Jefferson, Gratiot, and Michigan Avenue generate heavy runoff that frequently overwhelms storm drain inlets.

The most common sewer problems we resolve in Detroit are root-packed clay lateral lines, collapsed pipe sections in older areas of the city's grid, and storm drains choked with decades of accumulated sediment. We also frequently provide documentation when client laterals connect to city mains that are contributing to a backup, supporting service requests through the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department.

Detroit Sewer Co. provides professional sewer cleaning, root removal, hydro jetting, storm drain service, and video camera inspection to residential and commercial properties throughout Detroit and the surrounding Wayne County area. We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for emergencies and offer scheduled service for routine maintenance.
