Sewer & Drain in Jackson
What goes down has to keep moving
Every home in Jackson Hole sends its wastewater somewhere: into the town sewer, or out to a septic tank and drain field on larger lots in Wilson, Kelly or Star Valley. Either way, the pipe between your house and that endpoint lives in ground that freezes, shifts and gets threaded by aspen and cottonwood roots. When it slows down, every drain in the house feels it.
Our plumbers handle the whole path. A single slow sink usually needs drain cleaning. Repeat backups, sewer smells or a soggy patch in the yard call for a camera in the line, and the footage tells us whether you need a spot fix, a full sewer line repair or work on the septic side. We show you what we found and price the options before any digging starts.
- See It First Camera footage shows the problem before we recommend a fix.
- Less Digging Trenchless options protect landscaping, driveways and decks.
- Sewer or Septic Town connections and rural septic lines, both handled.
Symptom Check
Signs the problem is past the drain
One slow fixture is a nuisance, but these point to the main line or the septic system.
-
Several Slow Drains
When tubs, sinks and toilets all drag at once, the trouble is downstream of them.
-
Gurgling Fixtures
A toilet that bubbles when the shower runs is pushing air past a blockage.
-
Sewer Smell in the House
Odor from floor drains or the lowest bathroom can mean a cracked or backed-up line.
-
A Green Stripe in the Lawn
Grass that grows faster over the sewer path or drain field is feeding on a leak.
-
Backup in the Lowest Drain
Water rising in a basement drain or tub is a main-line warning.
-
Clogs That Keep Returning
A line that needs clearing every season likely has roots, a sag or a break.

Sewer and drain questions in Jackson Hole
How do I know if it’s a drain clog or a sewer problem?
If one sink or one tub is slow, the clog is probably close to that fixture. If several drains back up together, or the lowest drain in the house is where water appears, the main line is the likely culprit. A camera inspection settles it, and it’s the first thing we do on repeat or whole-house backups.
Do you work on homes with septic systems?
Yes. Many properties outside town, from Kelly to Alpine, run on septic. We clear and repair the line from the house to the tank, deal with root intrusion and fix damaged components. See septic repair for the signs that point to the septic side.
Can a sewer line be fixed without digging up the yard?
Often, yes. When the pipe is still in place and reachable, lining or bursting can renew it through one or two small access points. That matters when the line runs under a driveway, a deck or mature trees. Read more about trenchless sewer repair.
Does frozen ground affect sewer lines?
It can. Frost heave shifts pipe joints, and a line laid too shallow or with a low spot can freeze where water sits. Both lead to slow drains and backups in the coldest months. We check depth and grade on camera and recommend a fix that holds through the next winter.
Is there a sewer and drain special?
Yes. Our $83 drain clearing offer covers one accessible drain line through an existing cleanout or fixture, and if we can’t clear it, you don’t pay. Mention it when you call so we can apply it to your visit before any work begins.
