In general, all kinds of pipes are susceptible to breakage due to extreme pressure, regardless of whether they are inner (water) or external (ground). But, one of the most dangerous pipe problems one could experience is that of a broken sewer pipe. The pipes that have cracks are not only costly to repair however they could pose serious health hazards. If a sewer line is damaged it is necessary to repair it as the first option. We will consider sewer line replacement when repair isn't an alternative.

Sewer lines that are prone to localized breakages or leaks can be repaired instead of having a complete pipe replacement. Here are a couple sewer line repair options we can perform for you.

The standard method: This involves excavating the pipe to fix the pipe. Our fully-stocked service vehicles house a number of fittings and pipe joints for rapid turnarounds. We are proud to carry top quality products from leading manufacturers like Victaulic.

Pipe lining: Pipes that are still structurally sound but suffering from cracks or leaks could be benefited from sewer line repair by using the pipe lining (cured-in-place) technique. The pipe is traced with an epoxy resin tube. After the tube has been inflated, the epoxy resin is dried and allowed to dry. It is the result that you get a new sewer line, also known as a "pipe inside the pipe".

The benefits of pipe lining are improved water flow, greater resistance to damage from tree roots, and long-term reliability (built to last over fifty years). Pipe lining is a trenchless method for repairing sewers. This means that there's no digging to be done.

The initial step for any sewer line replacement or repair in Alexandria, VA will be a professional sewer camera inspection to view the cause of clogs and the state of the line. With a professional diagnosis, Alexandria Drain & Sewer Services will make sure that repairs are completed with care and in accordance with the pipe condition.

Hydro jetting is ideal for drains that are intact with heavy scale buildup or intrusion of roots. We can remove the roots that are obstinate and dissolve years-old buildup using high-pressure water streams and an specialized jetting nozzle.

Hydro jetting isn't recommended if the line is damaged. If there are tiny sections missing, minor holes or cracks, then pipelining can be an economical alternative. Pipelining rehabilitates the line creating an extremely durable and robust brand new pipe inside the damaged line with no need for excavation.
