Services
Trenchless Pipe Lining
Trenchless pipe lining repairs damaged pipes without excavation. A felt liner saturated with epoxy is inserted into the existing pipe, creating a durable, leak-proof interior surface. This method preserves landscaping and reduces downtime compared to traditional replacement.
Sewer Line Repair
We specialize in trenchless sewer line repair using pipe bursting technology. This method replaces damaged pipes with new ones without digging trenches, minimizing property disruption while ensuring long-term durability for residential and commercial properties.
Drain Field Restoration
Our Terralift procedure restores failing drain fields by breaking down biomass buildup and compacted soil. This eco-friendly process includes septic tank pumping, high-pressure jetting, and bacterial treatment to extend system lifespan without excavation.
Leak Detection
Advanced underground leak detection identifies hidden plumbing issues using video camera inspections and pressure testing. We locate leaks behind walls, under slabs, or in irrigation systems to prevent water waste and structural damage.
Water Heater Repair
We service all water heater types, including tankless and traditional models. Our technicians clean burner assemblies, flush tanks, and check thermostat settings to optimize efficiency and extend equipment lifespan for residential and commercial clients.

5/5, I will never consider a different plumbing service going forward! I am a new homeowner. Unfortunately, our sewer line stopped up in the first week of moving in. I called around for estimates/methods, and Speedy Rooter was far and above best in ideas/cost! They replaced my old sewer and water lines. Pipe bursting (trenchless method) avoided ruining my front porch. My pipes were in such rough shape that we ended up digging some too, but they were extremely careful to not ruin my walkway to the street.
The crew also placed two yard cleanouts for any future pipe stoppage. They are skilled with excavation. I was thoroughly pleased with their management and crew. Highly recommend for anyone seeking sewer/water line repair. Thank you!

Gary came to my house on a Saturday for an emergency back up of my septic tank. He was very professional and helped me try and find my tank. I had no idea where it was. Unfortunately we did not find it that day, after looking for an hour. He came back Monday and was able to find it and take care of the problem that day. I was impressed with his knowledge and work attitude and would definitely use him again.

Josh and Josh from the Waynesboro area were the best. They were professional, quick and made it look easy. Can't say enough good things about these two gentlemen.
