Looking for a Sewer Line Repair Service in Urbandale, IA?

The majority of pipes are susceptible to breakage because of extreme pressure, whether it is inside (water) or external (ground). However, one of the worst pipe malfunctions one can endure is the broken sewer pipe. Pipes that are cracked aren't only costly to repair but they can present dangerous health risks. When a sewer line breaks, a repair is the first line of defense. We will consider sewer line replacement when repair is not an option.

Sewer Line Damage: Common Reasons

• Poor maintenance
• Ground freezes and thaws on a frequent routine
• Wear and tear as a result of age
• The city's sewer line
• Infiltration of tree roots onto sewer pipe joints and holes
• Poor layout, design and/or installation of sewer pipes
• A buildup of debris, grease hair, oil, toilet paper, sludge and other substances
• Earth movement , such as earthquakes, nearby heavy construction, etc.

Signs of a broken sewer pipe

• Water has been drained from your toilet
• Toilet backups containing sewage or tub
• Slow draining bathtubs or no drain
• Noticeably greener grass near your sewage line

There is a way to fix sewer lines with leaks or breaks in them, rather than replacing the whole pipe. Here are a couple sewer line repair methods we can offer.

Traditional method: This involves digging up the affected area for pipe repair. For fast turnarounds, our fully-stocked service trucks are equipped with a range of pipe joints. We are proud to offer quality products from leading manufacturers, including Victaulic.

Pipe Lining: Pipes that have leaks or cracks that are structurally sound can be repaired using the pipe-lining (cured in place) method. The pipe is traced using an epoxy resin tube. The tube is then inflated and the resin left to dry and harden in the tube. This creates a brand new sewer line - a "pipe inside a pipe"!

Pipe lining has many benefits such as improved flow of water and less the damage caused by tree roots. It's also durable (built to last for more than 50 years). Pipe lining is a trenchless method of fixing sewers. That means there's no digging to be done.

You've probably experienced a sewer blockage. Many things can cause a sewer line to stop flowing, including frozen ground or soil that has been impacted. In addition, the accumulation of grease, paper, and other foreign waste can prevent proper flow in the pipe. Root infiltration is a different issue. This happens when the roots of nearby trees or plants enter the sewer line at a joint and grow to fill the pipe with hair-like roots. If not addressed immediately the blockages could cause the pipe to explode or break, or even collapse. This damage can lead to the necessity of replacing the sewer line. Urbandale Drain & Sewer Services is the expert team to contact for sewer line repair or replacement. Our Urbandale plumbers have decades of experience in repiping sewer lines. We can also tailor our service to suit your budget and demands.

If your sewer line is damaged, will you require sewer line repair? Or replacement? Repairs may be warranted if there are small holes or cracks in the sewer line. For more extensive pipe corrosion or more serious damage, sewer line replacement may be needed. How can we tell which one is necessary even though all of the pipes are underground? To determine if there is any damage to your pipes and the extent of it, we use the test of a leak in your pipe. If we determine there is damage or leak it is possible to do trenchless repairs in some instances, however replacements require us to dig the sewer line. Damage to the sewer line shouldn't be overlooked. Call Urbandale Drain & Sewer Services to have your sewer line examined.
