Underground water, sewer, and drainage work that doesn't mean tearing up your whole yard.

Great Lakes Plumbing takes on the excavation jobs a lot of plumbers pass on: water lines, sewer lines, and drainage work for new construction, commercial properties, and homeowners around Western New York.

New Construction · Commercial · Residential. Serving Buffalo, Amherst, Tonawanda, Kenmore, Cheektowaga, Williamsville, Grand Island & North Tonawanda.

What we do underground

From a single repair to a full new-construction rough-in, we handle the water, sewer, and drainage work below grade.

Water line installation & repair

We run new water service lines on construction jobs, and repair or replace old, failing lines for homes and businesses already built.

Sewer line installation & repair

New sewer laterals for new builds. Repairs and replacements when a line breaks, collapses, or gets choked up with roots.

Drainage systems

Grading and drainage work that gets water away from your foundation and out of the low spots in your yard.

Sewer snaking

Clogged or slow-draining line? We'll clear it and get things moving again.

Sewer camera inspection

We run a camera down the line first so we know exactly what's wrong and where, before anyone starts digging.

Trenchless underground solutions

Repair and replace lines through small access points instead of digging up the whole yard. Your lawn stays intact.

Who we work with

New Construction

We do the underground water and sewer rough-in for builders on new homes. Not the house itself, just the utility work below grade.

Commercial

Installation and repair for commercial properties, anywhere from a small retail site to a larger development.

Residential

If you're a homeowner dealing with a slow drain, a broken line, or a yard that won't stop holding water, that's us.

Why trenchless makes sense

A broken line doesn't have to mean digging up your whole yard. Trenchless work goes in through small access points instead of a full trench.

Traditional open-trench dig

  • Trench runs the full length of the line
  • Lawn, driveway, or landscaping is disturbed
  • Longer restoration time afterward

Great Lakes trenchless approach

  • Small access points instead of a full trench
  • Lawn and landscaping stay largely undisturbed
  • Faster turnaround, less cleanup
