What Is Trenchless Sewer Line Repair?
Traditionally, when sewer lines are repaired, trenches have to be dug to access the old sewer line. This can cause a large scar that can impact your grass, driveway, and other landscaping. However, trenchless sewer line repair only involves making two small access holes while leaving the rest of the yard intact.
When comparing trenchless sewer line repair vs standard sewer line repair, trenchless is the clear choice in many situations. The lack of damage to your yard or home is one obvious benefit, but it isn’t the only one. Trenchless sewer line repair cost is often lower because there is less labor involved and it also tends to take less time.
Different Types of Trenchless Sewer Line Replacement and Repair
- Trenchless Pipe Relining: this method involves inserting an epoxy lining on the inside of your existing pipes. This method is often used for pipes that are under the foundation of your home. A fabric liner is soaked in epoxy and then inserted into the pipe. It hardens in the hours following the service, creating a brand new pipe on the inside of your old one.
- Pipe Bursting: If your pipes are outside and not under the foundation, the pipe bursting method may be the right choice. Using this method, we simultaneously break away the existing pipe while pulling through a new one. The pieces of the old piping will be left in the ground and the new pipe will take its place.
Our Trenchless Sewer Line Repair Services
If is difficult to know exactly what is going on deep within your sewer line without getting a glimpse inside the pipes. This can also be done trenchlessly by using drain camera technology. This is our first step when diagnosing sewer line problems and determining whether you need a trenchless sewer line replacement or just a repair. With this technology, we can see corrosion, damage, tree roots, clogs, and more. Armed with this information, we will be able to give you an accurate estimate for the trenchless sewer line repair cost.
Once we have approval for the project, we will make two access holes at each end of the pipe that we are replacing or repairing. We will complete the service and put back any dirt that was displaced during the process. Once we are done, your sewer line will be free from clogs, leaks, or other frustrating problems.
