It is possible to repair sewer lines that leak or breakages and not replace the whole pipe. Here are some sewer line repair options we can offer.

The traditional method: This involves excavating the pipe to repair the pipe. For quick turnarounds our fully-stocked service vans are equipped with a range of pipe joints. We are proud to offer high-quality products from top manufacturers like 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 filled with air and the resin allowed to set and dry in place. This results in a completely new sewer line, a "pipe inside pipe"!

Pipe lining offers many advantages that include improved flow of water and less the damage caused by tree roots. It's also durable (built to last over 50 years). Additionally, because pipe lining is regarded as an in-line sewer repair it doesn't require large excavations, leaving your building or home free of ugly digging.

The severity and cause of the issue will decide the sewer line repair or replacement options work best. Repairs can be completed quickly if the sewer line is accessible, or beneath a raised foundation. If there's a small hole or crack the team at our disposal can create a partial replacement by cutting the damaged area and replacing it with a new PVC pipe.

What are the circumstances when sewer line replacement is required? It is most likely that the sewer line needs be repaired if it gets blocked frequently or has damaged roots, or is frozen. For broken pipes the replacement of sections might not permanently solve the issues. After the line is replaced, our team will provide an estimate that includes an excavation that is safe and a finalization. The possibility of sewer pipe ruptures occur due to the aging process, inadequate maintenance trees, tree roots, frozen or burst pipes, as well as disintegration.

Sewer pipelining is a good alternative if the pipe is still in good working order. It is a trenchless, non-dig method that can fix the pipe without replacing it.
