Sewer Line Repair, Done Right
Roots, settling, age and breaks all damage sewer lines. We confirm the problem, locate it and dig to expose the damaged section. Where a spot repair will do, we repair it. Where the pipe is failing along its length, we replace it.
We install cleanouts, restore proper slope, bed the pipe and backfill carefully, and we coordinate with the city or utility where the line connects.
Music City Excavation brings sewer line repair to homes, farms and businesses in Nashville and across 16 Middle Tennessee cities.

How We Work

Call 615-357-7797 or send the form. Tell us what is going on with your land, your house or your plans.
Walk the Site and Plan
We visit, look at the soil, the slope, the access and the water, and give you a clear, free estimate with options.
Mark, Permit and Prepare
We have underground utilities located, help with the permits and erosion control your project needs and plan where the dirt goes.
Dig, Build and Clean Up
Our crew does the work, keeps the site safe and tidy, restores what we disturb and walks the finished job with you.
How do I know if my sewer line is broken?
Signs include repeated backups, slow drains throughout the house, gurgling, sewage smells and wet or sunken spots in the yard. A camera inspection confirms it.
Can the line be repaired without replacing it?
Sometimes. If damage is limited to one section, a spot repair can do it. If the pipe is failing along its length, replacement usually makes more sense.
Will my yard be torn up?
Digging disturbs the yard. We keep the trench as narrow as the work allows and restore the surface afterward.
