Meet Craig Devakow — Owner, Advanced Drains and Underground Solutions

Craig Devakow is the founder and owner of Advanced Drains and Underground Solutions, Delaware County’s leading trenchless sewer and drain company. Based in Springfield, PA, Craig has spent over a decade helping homeowners across Delaware County avoid the stress and cost of traditional dig-and-replace sewer work.

How It Started

Craig started Advanced Drains after seeing too many homeowners get hit with surprise costs — torn-up yards, damaged driveways, and bills that doubled once a contractor started digging. He built the company around one idea: most sewer problems can be fixed without digging a single trench.

Today, Advanced Drains and Underground Solutions holds a 4.8-star rating across 743+ Google reviews, serving towns throughout Delaware County including Springfield, Havertown, Upper Darby, Media, Drexel Hill, and Swarthmore.

Trenchless From Day One

Craig Devakow was an early adopter of trenchless pipe bursting and pipe lining technology in the Delaware County market. While other local companies still defaulted to full excavation, Craig invested in the equipment and training to offer pipe bursting, pipe lining, and hydro-jetting — methods that fix the pipe from the inside, with no digging required.

The Plumber’s Helper

Outside of Advanced Drains, Craig runs The Plumber’s Helper — a newsletter and YouTube channel for trade contractors who want to use AI to run smarter businesses. He shares real-world experience using AI phone systems, dispatch automation, and digital marketing in a one-location plumbing and drain company.
