It is possible to fix sewer lines that have leaks or breaks in them instead of replacing the whole pipe. Here are a few sewer line repair solutions we can provide for you.

Traditional method: It 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 top quality products from the most renowned manufacturers, including Victaulic.

Pipe Lining: Pipes with cracks or leaks that are structurally sound can be repaired using the pipe-lining (cured in place) method. A tube that is coated with epoxy resin is traced across the existing pipe. Once the tube has been filled with epoxy resin, it is dried and allowed to air dry. This results in a completely new sewer line--a "pipe within a pipe"!

Pipe lining offers many advantages such as improved flow of water and less tree root damage. It is also long-lasting (built to last for over 50 years). Pipe lining is a trenchless method for repairing sewers. That means there's no digging to be done.

A skilled sewer camera inspection will identify the cause of the blockages as well as the state of the sewer line. This is the very first step for the process of Woolwich sewer line replacement or repair. After a thorough diagnosis, Woolwich Drain & Sewer Services will ensure all repairs are made in a safe manner, based on the condition of the pipe.

Hydro jetting can be used to cleanse drains that are not damaged, are prone to large scale build-up, or are surrounded by roots. Utilizing high-pressure streams of water, and an specialized jetting nozzle we can dislodge years of accumulation and eliminate even the most stubborn roots.

If the line has been damaged, jetting isn't the ideal choice. Pipelining can be a cost-effective alternative if there are missing sections, tiny holes or cracks. Pipelining is a method of repairing the line and creating an entirely new, sturdy and indestructible pipe out of the damaged old line.

So if your sewer line is damaged, will you require sewer line repair? Or replacement? Repairs may be warranted when there are tiny cracks or holes within the sewer line. For more extensive pipe corrosion or more severe damage sewer line replacement could be needed. With all things underground, how do our technicians tell if replacement is required? To determine whether there is any damage to your pipes and the severity of the damage, we perform the test of a leak in your pipe. Repairs can be made to the damage or leakage in certain cases without having to dig up the sewer line. Sewer line damage should not be ignored.
