We are licensed and insured, we answer 24/7, and every job starts with a camera so you see the problem before you pay for anything.

Sewer Lines in Downtown and the Fifth Avenue Historic District

This is the oldest part of Pine Bluff, and the pipe underground shows it. The Fifth Avenue Historic District is known for its Queen Anne homes, most of them built before 1915. The Commercial Historic District, roughly bounded by US-65B, Walnut Street, 10th Avenue and South Alabama Street, holds landmarks like the Saenger Theater, Hotel Pines, Union Station, the Masonic Temple and the Merchants and Planters Bank Building. Many of these buildings have been renovated inside, but the sewer lines under the yards, alleys and sidewalks are often much older than the finishes above them.

When we run a camera in this area we commonly find:

• Old clay sewer lines with many short sections and joints, often with roots from mature trees.
• Cast iron inside older homes and commercial buildings, rough with scale or rusting along the bottom.
• A patchwork of past repairs in different materials, added over many decades by different owners.
• Lines running under sidewalks, alleys or neighboring lots, which makes locating the line before any digging essential.

Sewer Services Downtown Owners Ask For Most

• Sewer camera inspection to see what century-old pipe actually looks like before deciding anything.
• Tree root removal for clay lines under the big trees along Fifth Avenue and the side streets.
• Grease buildup removal for downtown restaurants and kitchens.
• Spot sewer repair that fixes one bad section without tearing up an old yard or sidewalk.
• Cast iron sewer pipe replacement in older homes and commercial buildings.
• Commercial sewer services scheduled around business hours.

Careful Work Around Historic Properties

Historic homes and storefronts deserve a light touch. Before we recommend any digging, we map the line with a camera and locator so we know exactly where the pipe runs and how deep it sits. That lets us plan the smallest possible excavation and avoid disturbing old brick walkways, mature trees and original landscaping. When the pipe condition allows it, trenchless repair can fix a line through one or two small access points. When digging is the only option, we tell you exactly where and how much before the first shovel goes in.

Churches, Offices and Event Venues Downtown

Downtown is busy with more than homes. Trinity Episcopal Church at 3rd and Oak, the Pine Bluff Civic Center on E 8th Avenue, the Federal Building and courthouse, offices along Main Street and the theaters all depend on sewer lines that are decades old. A backup before a Sunday service, a wedding or a show is the worst possible timing. For these buildings we schedule inspections and cleaning on quiet days, keep the camera footage on file, and plan any repair so restrooms stay open when people are coming through the doors.
