Where we send the right crew
Syracuse and 15 towns and villages across Onondaga County, each with its own sewer facts.
The city
North and northwest
North Syracuse
The permit for a sewer job in the Village of North Syracuse is applied for at the county, not at the village, and it has to be in hand before anything is uncovered.
See North Syracuse
Liverpool
Ninety-five year old mains change what a slow drain in Liverpool usually turns out to be.
See Liverpool
Cicero
A flooded Cicero basement is far more often a sump pump that lost the race than a sewer that backed up, and those are different jobs at different prices.
See Cicero
Clay
Clay drains north to its own plant on Oak Orchard Road rather than south to Metro, so a whole street losing its drains here is a county pump station question before it is a plumber's.
See Clay
Salina
A backwater valve is worth pricing in Salina for a reason that has nothing to do with water arriving at the house.
See SalinaBaldwinsville
In Baldwinsville a drain that only slows during a thaw is often a system event rather than a fault in your house.
See Baldwinsville
East and southeast
East Syracuse
Knowing whether the water came up your drain or in off the street saves an East Syracuse homeowner the wrong repair.
See East SyracuseDeWitt
There is live county work under DeWitt aimed squarely at wet weather backups, and it can decide whether you need a contractor at all.
See DeWittJamesville
Jamesville's wastewater leaves the hamlet through a single pumped facility, and the county models that station at 38.0 percent structure damage in a flood, the highest of any wastewater facility in the DeWitt annex.
See JamesvilleManlius
In Manlius, a downspout or a sump pump discharging into the sanitary sewer is a compliance matter, and it is far better found by you than by an inspector.
See ManliusFayetteville
Fayetteville is the only municipality in this metro whose sewer ordinance names tree roots as a design condition, which tells you what a root job here usually really is.
See Fayetteville
West and south
Solvay
Solvay sits on the most specifically documented drainage ground in Onondaga County, which means a backup here can be argued from a public record rather than from a hunch.
See SolvayCamillus
If a Camillus line keeps collapsing rather than simply blocking, that is the expected finding here and it needs a camera before it needs a cable.
See CamillusMarcellus
Outside the village, Marcellus is septic country, and the tank and field have to be ruled in or out before anyone touches the pipe.
See MarcellusSkaneateles
Skaneateles sits outside the county sewer district entirely, so nobody from the county is coming to look at the public side of your line here.
See Skaneateles
Combined sewer in the city, separate sewers outside it
This corrects a common local assumption. The combined sewer, and the surcharge risk that comes with it, is a City of Syracuse condition. A wet basement in Clay or Cicero is not a combined sewer problem, and diagnosing it as one wastes money.
