When your home’s sewer or septic system acts up, it can quickly turn into a stressful and costly problem. I know how important it is to have a reliable, experienced team you can trust to fix these issues right the first time. That’s why I want to share what AMA Excavation offers for sewer and septic repairs, drainage repairs and installations, and perimeter and French drainage systems. With over 30 years of hands-on experience, every job is owner-operated, ensuring quality and care from start to finish.



Why sewer and septic repairs matter for your home


Sewer and septic systems are the backbone of your home’s plumbing. When they fail, you might notice slow drains, foul smells, or even water pooling in your yard. Ignoring these signs can lead to bigger problems like sewage backups, property damage, and health risks.



Having a professional come to your home for a camera diagnosis is a smart first step. This allows the team to see exactly what’s going on underground without digging blindly. AMA Excavation offers this service, so they can make a clear plan tailored to your home’s needs.



What a camera diagnosis reveals


  • Blockages or clogs in pipes

  • Cracks or breaks in sewer lines

  • Root intrusion from nearby trees

  • Septic tank condition and drainage field issues



This detailed look helps avoid guesswork and unnecessary repairs. It also saves you money by targeting the exact problem.

Drainage repairs and installations to protect your property


Water drainage around your home is crucial to prevent flooding and foundation damage. AMA Excavation specializes in drainage repairs and installs, including perimeter and French drainage systems. These systems help redirect water away from your home’s foundation and keep your basement dry.



Perimeter drainage systems


Perimeter drainage, also called weeping tile or foundation drainage, involves installing pipes around the base of your home. These pipes collect water and channel it away from the foundation. This system is essential in areas with heavy rainfall or poor soil drainage.



French drainage systems


French drains are trenches filled with gravel and a perforated pipe that redirects surface water or groundwater away from problem areas. They are often used in yards to prevent water pooling or to protect landscaping.



Both systems work by managing water flow and reducing pressure on your home’s foundation. Proper installation and maintenance are key to their effectiveness.



Owner-operated experience you can count on


One thing that sets AMA Excavation apart is that every job is owner-operated. This means the owners themselves are on-site, overseeing and performing the work. With over 30 years of experience, they bring deep knowledge and a personal touch to every project.



This hands-on approach ensures:


  • High-quality workmanship

  • Clear communication throughout the process

  • Customized solutions based on your home’s unique needs

  • Accountability and trustworthiness



When you hire a company like this, you get peace of mind knowing the job will be done right.

It’s not always obvious when your sewer or septic system needs attention. Here are some common signs to watch for:



  • Slow or clogged drains in multiple fixtures

  • Sewage smells inside or outside your home

  • Water pooling or soggy spots in your yard

If you notice any of these, don’t wait. Early diagnosis and repair can prevent costly damage and health hazards.
