Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most frequently asked sewer and drain questions from Lancaster property owners.

How quickly can you respond to a sewer emergency in Lancaster?

We provide 24/7 emergency sewer and drain response throughout Lancaster and surrounding New York 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.

How do you diagnose sewer problems in Lancaster without digging?

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 Lancaster property without any excavation.

Do you handle both residential and commercial drain cleaning in Lancaster?

Yes. Our Lancaster, NY teams are equipped for drain cleaning at any scale — from residential kitchen and bathroom drains to commercial restaurant grease lines, multi-unit buildings, and industrial facilities. We carry equipment rated for pipes from 1.5 inches to 12 inches in diameter.

What is trenchless sewer repair and is it available in Lancaster?

Trenchless sewer repair uses pipe lining or pipe bursting technology to fix damaged sewer lines without digging up your yard, driveway, or landscaping. It is faster, less disruptive, and often costs less than traditional excavation. Our Lancaster crews perform trenchless repairs when site conditions allow — saving you time, money, and landscaping restoration costs.

How long does a drain cleaning take in Lancaster?

Most residential drain cleaning jobs in Lancaster, NY take 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the severity of the clog and the number of drains affected. Main sewer line cleaning may take longer. Our crews arrive with professional-grade snaking equipment and hydro jetting capability to handle any blockage quickly.

Do you offer preventive sewer maintenance in Lancaster, NY?

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