Generally speaking, all types of pipes are vulnerable to breakage because of extreme pressure, regardless of whether they are inner (water) or outer (ground). However, one of the worst pipe malfunctions one can experience is that of a damaged sewer pipe. Broken sewer pipes are expensive to repair and can pose serious health risks. Repair is the first line of defense in the event that the sewer line fails. We turn to sewer line replacement when repair is not an option.

As your home settles, the foundation and pipes can shift. This, in addition to general wear and tear to pipes due to daily use could all cause sewer line issues. With regular inspection and maintenance you will be able to get many great years of service from your sewer lines and have very little or no need for repairs.

There are a variety of factors that are out of the control of homeowners that could result in damage to sewer lines. One example is tree roots. They can take root and spread through the sewer pipes, leading to massive blockages that require repairs. If you think a tree root has damaged your sewer line, call Lykens Drain & Sewer Services immediately to avoid any further damage!

Extreme weather can also result in unexpected damage, like shifting your home because of extreme cold or heat. This could cause issues with your sewer line.

A skilled sewer camera inspection will determine the source of the clog as well as the condition of the sewer line. This is the first step in any Lykens sewer line replacement or repair. With an expert assessment, Lykens Drain & Sewer Services will make sure that repairs are completed in a safe manner, based on the condition of the pipe.

Hydro jetting is a great option for drains that are not damaged with heavy scale buildup or intrusion of roots. By using high pressure streams of water, and specially designed jetting nozzles, we can dissolve decades of buildup and get rid of even stubborn roots.

If the line has been damaged, hydro jetting is not ideal. Pipelining is an affordable alternative if there are missing sections, tiny holes cracks, or holes. Pipelining restores the line and creates a strong and indestructible brand new pipe within the old damaged line, and all without excavation.

If the sewer line is damaged, do you need to get it fixed? Or replacement? Repairs could be recommended in the event of small cracks or holes in the sewer line. For more extensive pipe corrosion or damage that is more extensive replacement of the sewer line may be necessary. However, with everything underground, how do our techs tell which is necessary? To determine if there's any damage to your pipes and the extent of it, we use a pipe leak test. If we find damage or leak, we can do trenchless repairs in certain cases, but replacements do require us to dig the sewer line. In any case it's not a problem that can be ignored. Call Lykens Drain & Sewer Services to have your sewer line checked.
