Fix Underground Lines Before Damage Spreads

Water line and sewer line repair and replacement in Marion, Iowa

When you see wet spots forming in your yard or notice a sudden drop in water pressure, the problem often sits underground where your water or sewer line runs between the street and your Marion home. Leaks, breaks, and blockages in these buried lines can go unnoticed until water bills spike, drains stop working, or raw sewage surfaces near your foundation.

Domer Concrete Solutions handles water line and sewer line repair and replacement for residential and small commercial properties in Marion. We identify leaks, breaks, and blockages, then provide clear explanations of repair options and next steps. Services include upgrades for aging or damaged underground lines and proper connections to support long-term system reliability.

If you suspect a problem with your water or sewer line in Marion, contact us to schedule an inspection and discuss your options.

How we locate and resolve underground line problems

We start by inspecting your Marion property to locate the damaged section, using camera equipment to view the inside of sewer lines and pressure testing to find leaks in water lines. Once we identify the issue, we determine whether a targeted repair or full line replacement makes the most sense based on pipe condition, material, and location.

After repairs are completed, water pressure returns to normal, drains flow properly again, and wet spots or odors disappear. Proper connections to support long-term system reliability mean fewer emergency calls and less risk of water damage to your foundation or basement.

Replacement work involves excavating the damaged line, installing new piping, and restoring your yard or driveway afterward. We work with PVC, copper, and PEX materials depending on your system and local code requirements. Upgrades are often necessary for homes with original clay or cast iron sewer lines that have cracked, collapsed, or been invaded by tree roots.

It's okay to ask about the details

Homeowners frequently ask how we locate underground problems, what replacement involves, and whether they need to replace the entire line or just a section.

What are the most common causes of water line leaks?
Most leaks result from corrosion in older metal pipes, ground shifting that stresses joints, or freeze damage during severe cold. Tree roots can also penetrate water lines if they grow close to the pipe path.
How do you know if a sewer line needs full replacement?
We recommend full replacement when camera inspection shows widespread cracks, collapse, or root intrusion along most of the line. Isolated damage in one section can often be repaired without replacing the entire run.
Why does my water pressure drop if the line is leaking underground?
Leaks allow water to escape before it reaches your fixtures, reducing the volume and pressure available inside your home. Larger breaks can lower pressure noticeably and cause wet areas in your yard.
What happens during sewer line replacement in Marion?
We excavate the damaged line, remove the old pipe, install new PVC piping, and connect it properly to your home and the city main. Afterward, we backfill the trench, compact the soil, and restore grass or pavement as needed.
How long does water or sewer line repair typically take?
Targeted repairs often finish in a day, while full line replacement can take two to three days depending on length, depth, and surface restoration. We provide clear timelines before work begins.
