Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers about pricing, response times, and how we work — no fine print.

Do you offer free estimates in the Denver metro?

Yes. Affordable Sewer & Plumbing Services provides free, no-obligation estimates on every plumbing and sewer job across Denver, Thornton, Highlands Ranch, Boulder, Parker, Castle Rock, Evergreen, Westminster, and Broomfield.

Are you licensed and confined space certified?

Yes, we're fully licensed and confined space certified, which matters for sewer and utility work that requires entering vaults or manholes safely.

How fast can you respond to a plumbing emergency near me?

We offer fast, same-day response across the entire Denver metro during business hours (Mon–Fri 6am–9pm, Sat 6am–5pm) — call us and we'll get someone out as quickly as possible.

Do you charge a trip fee just to show up?

No. We don't charge a trip fee. Estimates are free, and you only pay for work you approve.

What areas do you serve?

We serve the greater Denver metro, including Denver, Thornton, Highlands Ranch, Boulder, Parker, Castle Rock, Evergreen, Westminster, and Broomfield.

How much does a sewer camera inspection cost?

Pricing depends on the length of the line and how it's accessed, but every inspection starts with a free estimate so you know the cost upfront before any work begins.

Do you offer emergency plumbing service after hours?

We're open extended hours — Monday through Friday 6am to 9pm and Saturday 6am to 5pm — so most emergencies can be handled within our regular hours. Call us and we'll get someone out as quickly as possible.

What's the difference between a tankless and traditional water heater?

A traditional tank water heater stores and continuously heats a set amount of water, while a tankless unit heats water on demand as it flows through — which can mean lower energy bills and endless hot water. The right choice depends on your household's usage and plumbing setup.

How often should I have my septic tank pumped?

Most residential septic tanks need pumping every 3–5 years, though this varies based on tank size and household size. We can inspect your system and let you know where you stand.

Do tree roots really damage sewer lines?

Yes. Roots are one of the most common causes of sewer line damage in the Denver metro, especially in older neighborhoods with mature trees. A camera inspection can confirm whether roots are the issue before you dig.

What's included in a free estimate?

We'll assess the issue, explain what we find in plain language, and give you an upfront price before any work starts — no surprise charges after the fact.

Do you work on both residential and commercial properties?

Yes, we handle plumbing and sewer work for homeowners as well as commercial properties across the Denver metro, including grease trap pumping and lift station service for businesses.
