What Are Trenchless Sewer Repairs?

When you think of a sewer line issue, you probably think of needing to dig a large hole or trench to gain access to the damaged portion of your sewer line. Trenchless sewer lines eliminate the need for this major digging project, instead repairing the issue while working within your existing line itself. Trenchless sewer line methods generally only involve digging two smaller holes, one at both ends of the line that needs to be repaired, allowing our team to fix your problem without having to completely excavate your current sewer line.

There are two primary methods of repairing or replacing a sewer line using trenchless technology: pipe bursting and pipe relining. Pipe bursting involves using a powerful winch tool to pull a bursting head through your damaged sewer line while simultaneously also placing a replacement sewer line in its place. Pipe lining involves pulling a resin-imbued liner into your old, damaged sewer line, inflating that liner, and then allowing it to cure in place, creating a new, water-tight lining that restores the condition of your sewer line. 

Both methods have their pros and cons, and each can be used for different circumstances, so talk to our team to get their recommendation for your property.

Our Traditional Sewer Line Repair Process

Trenchless is not always an option for some sewer line services. While trenchless technologies have revolutionized the plumbing industry. There are certain circumstances that may necessitate traditional sewer line repair methods. These situations could include severely collapsed pipes or extensive root intrusions.

If trenchless is not an option, we can perform a traditional excavation service with our proven process: 

• Inspection: Our seasoned team uses state-of-the-art CCTV technology. We use this to conduct a detailed inspection of your sewer line. This will pinpoint the exact location and extent of the damage.
• Planning: Based on the inspection results, we devise a customized repair plan. We thoroughly discuss the plan with you. This way you understand the entire process and can approve of the proposed solution.
• Excavation: We perform targeted excavation to reach the damaged section of the sewer line. We do this to make we cause minimal disruption to your property.
• Repair or replacement: Depending on the severity of the damage to the sewer line. We either repair the existing pipe or replace it with a high-quality, durable new one.
• Restoration: After the repair or replacement, we meticulously restore the excavation site. We always make sure to leave your property as we found it.
• Final inspection: We perform a final check to ensure the sewer line is functioning optimally. We make sure it also meets all the necessary safety standards.

Signs You Have a Sewer Line Problem

Detecting sewer line issues does not always require extensive training and experience. In fact, some signs of an issue are simple enough for just about anyone to spot. However, if you want to avoid the catastrophic consequences of a major sewer line issue, you should keep an eye out for some of the more subtle indications that your sewer line may be experiencing trouble. Remaining aware of your sewer line and looking for any of these common signs of a problem can help you fix your issue and potentially avoid a sewer disaster:

• Foul odors coming from drains or yard
• Multiple slow drains in the property
• Unexplained puddles or wet spots in the yard
• Frequent backups in sinks, toilets, or bathtubs
