Sewer lines that are prone to localized breakages or leaks can be repaired instead of having a complete pipe replacement. Here are a few sewer line repair methods we can offer.

The traditional method: The process involves digging up the pipe to fix the pipe. Our fully-stocked service trucks house many fittings and pipe joints for fast turnarounds. We are proud to carry top quality products from the most renowned manufacturers, including Victaulic.

Pipe Lining: Pipes with cracks or leaks, but with structural integrity may be restored 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 left to set. It is the result that you get a brand new sewer line, also known as a "pipe within the pipe".

Pipe lining has many benefits such as improved flow of water and less the damage caused by tree roots. It is also long-lasting (built to last for over 50 years). Furthermore, since pipe lining is considered an untidy sewer repair technique, there's no need for extensive digging; this leaves your house or building free of unsightly excavations.

Shepherd Drain & Sewer Services can provide professional diagnosis and guarantee that all repairs are carried out securely, in accordance with the state of the pipe.

Hydro jetting is a method to clean drains that are not damaged, have a large scale buildup, or are infested by roots. By using high pressure streams of water and a specialty jetting nozzle, we can dislodge years of buildup and remove even the most stubborn roots.

Hydro jetting isn't recommended if the line is damaged. Pipelining is an affordable alternative in the event of missing sections, small holes cracks, or holes. Pipelining is a method for fixing the line and creating the new, solid durable, and impervious pipe from the old damaged line.
