All kinds of pipes can be damaged by high pressure. A damaged sewer pipe is the most dangerous kind of pipe malfunction. Broken sewer pipes are expensive to repair and can pose serious health risks. Repair is the first line of defense when the sewer line fails. We turn to sewer line replacement when repair is not an option.

Sewer Line Damage: Common Causes

Poor maintenance
Regularly, the ground freezes and then thaws.
Age-related wear and tear
The city's sewer line
Infiltration of tree roots on sewer pipe joints and holes
Poor layout, design, and/or installation of sewer pipes
Hair, hair debris, grease and oil buildup, along with toilet paper and sludge.
Earth movements, like earthquakes, or nearby heavy construction, etc.

Sewer lines with localized breaks or leaks can be fixed instead of having a complete pipe replacement. We have a variety of sewer line repair options.

The standard method: This involves excavating the pipe to repair the pipe. Our fully-stocked service trucks contain many pipe fittings and pipe joints to ensure quick turnaround times. We are proud to offer quality products from leading manufacturers, including Victaulic.

Pipe lining: Pipes that are nevertheless structurally sound, but suffering from cracks or leaks could require sewer line repairs with the pipe liner (cured-in-place) technique. The pipe is traced with an epoxy resin tube. The tube is then filled with air and the resin is left to harden and dry in the tube. This creates a brand new sewer line--a "pipe inside a pipe"!

Benefits of pipelining include improved water flow, greater resistance to tree root damage and long-term durability (built to last for over fifty years). Furthermore, since pipe lining is thought of as an untidy sewer repair technique it doesn't require extensive digging; this leaves your house or building free of ugly excavations.

Repairs and replacements to sewer lines solutions depend on the cause and severity of damage. If the sewer line is underneath a foundation that is raised or accessible, repairs may be made with minimal disruption. Our team can fix small holes or cracks in the sewer line, by cutting it off and replacing it with a new PVC pipe.

When is sewer line replacement required? If your sewer line is frequently blocked, is severely damaged by roots or has frozen, it is likely to need to be replaced. The damaged pipes might need to be replaced in sections. After the line is replaced, our team will provide an estimate that includes the safe excavation process and final work. Poor maintenance, age, tree roots, frozen pipes, burst pipes and even disintegration can all result in the breaking of sewer pipes.

If the line is largely intact, sewer pipelining may be the right choice for you. It's a trenchless and non-dig method that can fix the pipe without replacing it.
