Ralston, Douglas County

A small city with long-established streets

Ralston is a compact city with Omaha on nearly every side and La Vista to the south. It has been settled for well over a century, and many of its houses and the trees around them have been there a long time.

Established streets are good to live on and hard on sewer lines. Age and roots do most of the damage, quietly, until a drain stops.

What tends to go wrong in Ralston

  • Tree roots

    Roots are the most common cause of damage to a sewer line, and mature trees have the reach. Cutting them out restores flow; a camera shows how far they have gone.

  • Cast-iron drains indoors

    Old cast-iron drain pipe roughens inside as it corrodes and catches everything. Regular cleaning keeps it moving.

  • Repair or replace

    Not every damaged line needs replacing. We show you what the camera found and recommend only what the line needs.

How we work

High quality, low cost. Fair and square.

  • No hidden fees

    Straightforward, honest pricing. You won’t find hidden fees or charges on the bill.

  • We look before we dig

    A camera inspection shows exactly where the problem is, so you pay for the repair the line needs, not a guess.

  • Fixed, then kept that way

    Most companies fix the problem and leave. We clear it, then show you how to stop it coming back.

Questions

Good to know

My Ralston home is from the 1950s. What am I likely facing?

Mid-century Ralston homes commonly have cast iron inside and clay tile running out to the street. Clay fails at the joints, cast iron fails from the inside out, and most homes from that era have had decades for both processes to progress. A single camera run usually answers questions people have wondered about for years.

The lots are tight here. Can you get equipment in?

Almost always. Narrow side yards and older garages shape how the work is staged rather than whether it can happen. Mentioning access and gate width on the phone means the right machine arrives on the first trip.

Ralston is its own city. Does that change who handles the public main?

It can, since Ralston maintains its own municipal services separately from Omaha. For anything past your property connection, call the city of Ralston rather than Omaha. On your own line, nothing changes.

Is it worth replacing clay tile before it fails?

If the camera shows sound pipe with tight joints, there is no reason to spend the money. If it shows root intrusion at several joints or any offset, you are paying for cleanings indefinitely and the failure is a question of when. Where you fall between those is the actual decision, and the footage makes it visible.

Could an old line cause slow drains throughout the house?

Yes. When the main is restricted, everything upstream drains sluggishly even though no single fixture is blocked. People often chase individual drains for months before realizing the problem is one pipe serving all of them.
