Here is what sets Scranton Sewer Authority apart from other sewer and drain companies in Salem.
Our hydro jetting equipment delivers up to 4,000 PSI of water pressure to scour pipe walls clean — removing roots, grease, scale, and years of buildup that snaking alone cannot clear.
Most calls are answered live and our crews arrive on-site within 60 to 90 minutes. Every hour of delay during a sewer emergency increases damage and health risk, so speed is built into everything we do.
We use high-definition sewer cameras to see inside your pipes in real time. Accurate diagnosis means the right repair the first time — no guesswork, no unnecessary excavation, no wasted money.
Sewer backups and drain emergencies do not wait for business hours and neither do we. Our emergency crews are on call around the clock to clear blockages and stop backups the moment you call.
Our technicians live and work in the communities we serve. We understand local pipe materials, soil conditions, tree root patterns, and the specific sewer and drain challenges in your area.
Common questions about sewer and drain services in Salem, PA.
Absolutely. Tree root intrusion is one of the most common causes of sewer line damage in Salem, PA. Roots seek out moisture and can penetrate tiny cracks or joints in sewer pipes, eventually causing blockages and pipe collapse. Our crews remove roots with hydro jetting and can reline pipes to prevent future intrusion.
Professional drain cleaning by trained technicians will not damage your pipes. Our Salem crews select the appropriate equipment for your pipe material and condition — cable machines for tough clogs, hydro jetting for buildup, and gentle methods for older or fragile pipes. We always inspect before cleaning to avoid unnecessary risk.
Yes. Our Salem, PA teams are equipped for drain cleaning at any scale — from residential kitchen and bathroom drains to commercial restaurant grease lines, multi-unit buildings, and industrial facilities. We carry equipment rated for pipes from 1.5 inches to 12 inches in diameter.
We use a specialized waterproof camera that is inserted into your sewer line through a cleanout. The camera transmits real-time video that shows us the exact location and nature of any blockage, crack, offset joint, or root intrusion. This lets us recommend the most cost-effective repair for your Salem property without any excavation.
Common warning signs for Salem homeowners include multiple slow drains, gurgling toilets, sewage odors in the yard or basement, soggy patches in the lawn, and recurring drain backups. If you notice any of these, call us for a sewer camera inspection to diagnose the problem before it becomes a costly emergency.
Most standard homeowners insurance policies in Salem do not cover sewer line repair due to normal wear and aging. However, sudden damage from events like tree root intrusion or ground shifting may be partially covered. Some carriers offer sewer line endorsements. We help Salem homeowners understand their coverage and provide documentation for claims that do apply.
Real reviews from property owners we have served across the country.
"Good service for a bathtub drain clog. The tech used a drain snake to pull out a nasty hairball, then flushed the line to confirm good flow. Quick visit, reasonable price. Would call again."
"Our kitchen drain had been slow for weeks. The technician used a camera to find a grease buildup about 30 feet down the line, then hydro jetted the whole thing. Drains faster than it has in years. Great service."
"Called about a sewage smell in the yard. They ran a camera and found an offset joint letting sewage seep into the soil. They repaired it with a spot repair and the smell is completely gone. Problem identified and solved efficiently."
