A broken underground drain line is one of the most disruptive plumbing emergencies a homeowner can face. It can lead to raw sewage backing up into your home, water damage, and serious health risks. At Trans Canada Drain, we specialize in fast-response excavation services to repair or replace broken sewer and drain lines—professionally and with minimal disruption to your property.
From collapsed clay pipes to cracked cast iron or root-invaded drains, we diagnose, dig, and fix the issue at its source. Our team works quickly but carefully, handling every step from permits to backfill. You can count on us 24/7 for reliable excavation services when every minute counts.
