There is a way to fix sewer lines with leaks or breaks in them and not replace the entire pipe. Here are a couple sewer line repair solutions we can provide for you.

The standard method: The process involves digging up the area in order to fix the pipe. For quick turnarounds our fully-stocked service vans can house a variety of pipe joints. We are proud to carry high-quality products from top 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. The pipe is traced using an epoxy resin tube. Once the tube has been inflated, the epoxy resin is dried and left to dry. The result is a totally new sewer line, a "pipe within a pipe"!

Benefits of pipelining include better water flow, stronger resistance to damage caused by tree roots, and long-term reliability (built to last for more than fifty years). Plus, since pipe lining is regarded as an untidy sewer repair technique it doesn't require massive digging, which leaves your building or home free of unsightly digging.

If you have ever experienced the blockage of a sewer line then you're aware of how stressful it can get. There are many things that can cause a sewer line to cease to flow, for example, the impact of soil or frozen ground. In addition, the accumulation of paper, grease, and other foreign debris could block the flow of the pipe. Another cause of concern is root infiltration, where roots from a nearby shrub or tree enter the sewer line from the joint and grow to fill the pipe with a hairy root mass. If not addressed immediately blocked pipes can cause the pipe to explode, break, or collapse. This could require repair or replacement of the sewer line.
