Our experienced team can also inspect your drain system with a camera before excavating to unclog or repair the pipes.

During the installation or replacement of your French drain, our technicians can also repair foundation cracks and apply a waterproof membrane to the entire foundation wall surface in order to protect it from water infiltration. We are also qualified to repair or replace your water service line, sanitary sewer pipe or storm drainage line.

Camera inspection and foundation drain repair

If your drainage system no longer seems to function properly, replacement may not be necessary. In many cases, a simple unclogging is enough to restore proper operation. Pipes can become clogged with clay or roots that have punctured the drain line.
Before excavating to repair a defective French drain, we perform a camera inspection to identify the exact location and cause of the problem. The camera travels through the drain pipes and allows us to determine whether the system is clogged or if part of the pipe is broken. Once the issue is located, we perform targeted excavation work to repair the drain.
Sometimes the drainage system has settled and must be repositioned with additional gravel underneath. This often happens when the original installer did not place enough gravel below the drain. Between 5 and 10 cm of gravel is required beneath the drainage system to keep it properly supported. The pipes must also be installed with a very slight slope to help the pump direct water away from the foundation walls.

Potable water and sewer lines

Acting quickly can make all the difference when you suspect problems with underground service lines such as water service lines, watermain pipes or sewer pipes.

A small leak under a sink or bathtub, a toilet backup or a collapsed underground pipe system can lead to costly property damage. These issues can also affect your quality of life and the safety of your drinking water.

At MAXIUM EXCAVATION, we offer complete services including camera inspections, pipe unclogging and full or partial replacement of potable water and sewer lines.

Our services are available for residential properties as well as commercial, institutional and industrial buildings.

Our team works with precision and follows Building Code standards to ensure every project is compliant and built to last.

Understanding the causes to provide the right solution

Underground service lines are exposed to many types of stress.
The most common problems include: tree roots penetrating pipe joints and causing blockages or cracks; residue buildup caused by inappropriate materials being flushed into toilets or sinks such as wipes, grease or debris; corrosion of materials, especially in older lead or steel systems; and soil movement, which can create settlement or insufficient slope and lead to poor drainage.
In less severe cases, a simple unclogging using an auger or high-pressure water jet may be enough. However, if the pipes are damaged, cracked or deformed, replacement is often necessary.

An approach tailored to every situation

We begin every project with a camera inspection that allows us to precisely identify the issue inside the pipes without unnecessary excavation.
Depending on the diagnosis, we perform targeted excavation to access the problematic section, repair or replacement of sewer, watermain or water service lines, as well as connection to municipal infrastructure.
The installation of backwater valves, which are mandatory in many cities to prevent backups and the replacement of old lead pipes for public health reasons are also part of our services.
Once the work is completed, we fully restore the property, including backfilling, grading, interlocking pavers and sod installation.

Protect your property by acting at the first warning signs

Ignoring a pipe problem often leads to much more expensive repairs only a few months later. If you notice slow drainage, unusual odors or strange noises in the pipes, contact us. A simple inspection could save you a great deal of trouble.
