Generally speaking, all types of pipes are susceptible to breakage because of extreme pressure, regardless of whether they are the inner (water) or outward (ground). But, one of the most severe pipe failures that one can encounter is a broken sewer pipe. The pipes that have cracks are not just costly to fix, however they could pose dangerous health risks. When a sewer line breaks, a repair is the first option. If repair isn't a viable option, we look to replacing the sewer line.

It is possible to fix sewer lines that leak or breakages and not replace the whole pipe. Here are a few sewer line repair methods we can perform for you.

The traditional method: The process involves digging up the area in order to repair the pipe. Our fully-stocked service vehicles house many pipe fittings and pipe joints to ensure rapid turnarounds. We are proud to carry high-quality products from top manufacturers such as Victaulic.

Pipe Lining: Pipes that have leaks or cracks that are structurally sound could be restored with the pipe-lining (cured in place) method. The pipe is traced using an epoxy resin tube. Once the tube has been filled with epoxy resin, it is dried, and then allowed to air dry. This creates a brand new sewer line--a "pipe within a pipe"!

Benefits of pipe lining include improved water flow, greater resistance to damage from tree roots and long-term durability (built to last over 50 years). Pipe Lining is a trenchless method of repairing sewers. This means that there is no digging needed.
