All types of pipes can be broken by extreme pressure. But, one of the most dangerous pipe problems one could experience is that of a damaged sewer pipe.

A blockage in the sewer line can cause raw sewage back up, and then find its way into showers, tubs and sink drains all over your home. Sewer line backups can often cause expensive repairs. The cost to replace vanities, floors as well as support joists as a result of an unrepaired sewer main could exceed the cost of the plumbing repair very quickly, which makes early detection and repair key to reducing costs.

There are a variety of reasons sewer lines can get blocked. In excess paper use as well as grease and oil from kitchen waste hair, and soapy residue from sinks and showers could all cause sewer line blockages.

If a homeowner is willing to take a chance at perhaps getting a little messy, unclogging a main sewer line can be a DIY project. Switch off the main water supply. There will be small, round PVC pipe that has an end cap or a rubber screw-on cap. The removal of the cap will relieve built up pressure and cause water to drain out of (rather than return to) the house.

The initial step for any sewer line repair or replacement in Exmore, VA will be a professional sewer camera inspection. This will view the cause of clogs and condition of the sewer line. With an expert diagnosis, Exmore Drain & Sewer Services will ensure that all repairs are done safely according to the state of the pipe.

Hydro jetting can be used to clear drains that have not been damaged, have large scale build-up, or are surrounded by roots. Using high pressure streams of water and an specialized jetting nozzle we can dissolve decades of buildup and get rid of even the most stubborn roots.

Hydro jetting is not recommended in the event of a damaged line. Pipelining can be a cost-effective alternative in the event of missing sections, small holes, or cracks. Pipelining is the process of repair and creation of a new, strong, indestructible pipe from the damaged old line.

If the sewer line is damaged, do you need to have it repaired? or replacement? When small holes or cracks appear in the sewer line, usually a repair is what is needed. The sewer line can be replaced for more severe pipe damage and corrosion. What can we do to determine which one is needed even though everything is underground? We use a pipe leak test to determine if you've got damage and where that damage might be. If we find an issue or leak that needs to be repaired, we can perform a trenchless repair in some cases, but replacements do need us to dig the sewer line up. Either way, sewer line damage isn't a problem that can be overlooked. So before things get out of hand, make a call to Exmore Drain & Sewer Services, and ask us to take a inspection of your sewer line.
