The foundation and pipes could change as the home settles. This, in addition to general wear and tear on pipes from everyday use can lead to sewer line problems. If you maintain your sewer lines with regular inspections you will be able to get many great years out of your sewer lines with very little or no need to need repairs.

There are a variety of factors that are out of homeowner's control that can result in damages to sewer lines. For instance, trees can cause damage to sewer lines. They may take root and spread through the pipes of sewers, leading to massive blockages that require repairs. If you suspect that the tree root is damaging your sewer line, call Lewis Drain & Sewer Services as soon as you can to prevent any more damage!

Another damage that is not anticipated can result from extreme weather, extreme cold or extreme heat could cause the house to move quickly, which can cause problems with your sewer line.

A professional sewer camera inspection will pinpoint the cause of the clog as well as the condition of the sewer line. This is the first step in any Lewis sewer line replacement or repair. After a thorough diagnosis, Lewis Drain & Sewer Services will ensure all repairs are made in a safe manner, based on the state of the pipe.

Hydro jetting can be utilized to clean drains that are not damaged, are prone to large scale build-up, or are surrounded by roots. Utilizing high-pressure streams of water and specially designed jetting nozzles, we can dissolve decades of buildup and get rid of even the most stubborn roots.

Hydro jetting is not recommended when the line is damaged. If there are tiny sections missing, small holes or cracks, pipelining is a cost effective alternative. Pipelining repairs the line, creating an extremely durable and robust brand new pipe inside the old damaged line, all without the need for excavation.

So if the sewer line in your home is damaged, will you require sewer line repair? Or replacement? Repairs could be recommended when there are tiny holes or cracks within the sewer line. A sewer line replacement is a possibility for more severe pipe damage and corrosion. But with everything underground, how do our experts tell which one is required? We perform a leak test to find out whether you've suffered damaged pipes and what the source could be. We can repair the damage or leakage in some cases without digging up the sewer line. Sewer line damage should not be overlooked. Call Lewis Drain & Sewer Services to have your sewer line examined.
