Need a Sewer Line Repair Service in Ganges, MI?

Generally speaking, all types of pipes are vulnerable to breakage due to extreme pressure, be it inner (water) or outward (ground). A damaged sewer pipe is the most serious kind of pipe malfunction. Broken sewer pipes are expensive to repair and can pose significant health risks. When a sewer line breaks, a repair is the first option. When repair is not an option, we look to replacing the sewer line.

Ganges Drain & Sewer Services's certified sewer line experts will inspect your sewer pipes and determine if they have any cracks or other damage. We aim to repair rather than replace the pipe, which is why we start by assessing the problem. It is not necessary to wait for replacement parts for your sewers to arrive because we have all the parts you need. Our fleet is equipped with all the necessary equipment required for a safe underground excavation including traffic cones, barriers with reflective and LED indicators as well as vehicle lighting and warning signs.

While everyone's sewer system and property layout differ but there are some universal problems that we can take a a look at that can result in these solutions:

• Pipe Relining. First, we clean the sewer pipe and then we apply a new liner. This takes up to a few hours to dry. The new lining is protected by a shield that stops cracks in pipes.
• Burst Pipe Hydraulic Repair. We may be capable of putting an entirely new sewer line through an existing sewer pipe, if the damage is severe enough. This method uses hydraulics to break up the pipe, and then replace it seamlessly with the new one.
• Preventive pipe maintenance. Regular inspections of your pipes and drain cleanings will keep buildup and debris at bay and help prevent any cracks, blockages or explosions.

The degree and nature of the damage will determine which sewer line repair or replacement options work best. Repairs are possible when the sewer line can be accessed, or under a raised foundation. Our team can fix small holes or cracks in the sewer line by cutting it and replacing it with new PVC pipe.

When is sewer line replacement needed? If the line is regularly blocked, is severely damaged by roots, or is frozen, it is likely to need to be replaced. In the case of broken pipes the replacement of sections might not be a permanent solution. After the line is replaced, our team will provide an estimate that includes safe excavation and finishing work. Breaks in sewer pipes can occur due to old age, neglect or tree roots frozen pipes, burst pipes or frozen pipes, as well as degrading.

Sewer pipelining is a good alternative if the pipe is still in good condition. It's a trench-free non-dig solution that will repair the pipe without replacing it.

If the sewer line has been damaged is it necessary to have it repaired? Or replacement? When small holes or cracks occur within the sewer line generally, a repair is required. The sewer line can be replaced in the case of more serious pipe corrosion and damage. With all things underground, how do our experts tell which one is required? To determine whether there is damage to your pipes, and to determine the extent of the damage, we perform a pipe leak test. If we find damage or leak, we can do trenchless repairs in some instances, however replacements need us to dig the sewer line up. Sewer line damage should not be overlooked. If you want to prevent things from getting out of hand, call Ganges Drain & Sewer Services, and allow us to look at your sewer line.
