Every year the city of Portland Maine sends out notices for street paving.  Why, you ask am I posting this on Northeast Sewer’s blog?  Because if your street is selected for paving (which some of you have been waiting 20+ years…..Yeah for you!!) After paving is done your street is under “Moritorium” for 5 years, meaning if you have to dig or open up the street for any reason the permit price has an additional fee usually $5000.00 (that is not a typo) Five thousand dollars!!

So before the city tells you this……first: If you know your street is going to be paved, I would recommend having your main line sewer televised with a plumbing camera.  A quick and easy way to make sure your sewer line is in good working condition…….Second: If your sewer line is broken, there are other alteratives such as pipe bursting or pipe lining, less invasive than conventianal sewer excavation.

And this moritorium is not just for Portland Maine it’s for most Southern Maine cities and towns.

Sewer line televising is quick and easy, and the homeowner can see any issues right on the screen, no more guess work……

I am a first time homeowner and needed a new sewer line installed, heart stopping when I had no knowledge of such things. I called northeast sewer everyday for a week with questions and concerns. They televised my line and showed me exactly where the break was (pretty amazing) I could see it on the screen!! Fixed it in one day!!

Justin and Kelly are the owners, and they could not have been better to work with. I had a 120 year old BRICK (yes, brick) sewer line collapse and they diagnosed the problem, involved the city and fixed it for less than I was expecting to pay. I learned that they own and operate their own excavating equipment which means jobs are done more quickly and less expensively than others. I am a raving fan, and have already referred them out.

hired Northeast Sewer to inspect my main line with their sewer camera because our basement kept getting water. We had roots in our line. Northeast removed the roots put us on a yearly maintenance plan and we haven’t had a problem since. Thank you.

I want to thank the 2 gentleman who came last Friday morning and fixed my downstairs’ toilet. They knew what they were doing, not like some so-called professionals. They let you know what was going on. Very pleasant people to have working at your house. If I have a similar problem next time, I’m going to call Northeast Sewer & Drain first!

– Ellen P. 

A great big thank you to Justin and Kelly Dearborn from Northeast Sewer & Drain Service for fixing the plumbing issues we had at our house yesterday.

They are great!
