Report
We had an issue with a constantly-running sump pump. Superior Trenching located the break in our storm sewer line. Employees - Dustin and Beth - corrected the problem, with lots of shoveling and crawling under our front porch to gain access to the break in the line. Our newly landscaped yard was protected during the excavation process. Awesome work! We feel confident recommending Superior Trenching.
