Looking for a Sewer Line Repair Service in Heathsville, VA?

In general, all kinds of pipes are susceptible to breakage because of extreme pressure, regardless of whether they are inner (water) or outward (ground). But, one of the most dangerous pipe problems one could encounter is a damaged sewer pipe. Broken sewer pipes are costly to fix and pose grave health hazards. If a sewer line is damaged it is necessary to repair it as the first line of defense. We will consider the replacement of sewer lines when repair isn't an option.

As your home settles, the foundation and pipes may shift. This, as well as general wear and tear on the pipes as they are used, are one of the primary reasons for problems with sewer lines. If you maintain your sewer lines with regular inspections it is possible to enjoy many years out of your sewer lines with very little or no need to make repairs.

But with that stated, there are several external factors that a homeowner can not have any control over that could cause damage to sewer lines. For instance, tree roots. They can take root and spread through the pipes of sewers, causing massive blockages that require repairs. Heathsville Drain & Sewer Services can assist you should you suspect that a tree's root might have caused damage to your sewer line.

Another damage that is not anticipated can be caused by extreme weather, extreme cold or heat can cause the house to move abruptly, creating issues with your sewer line.

Most likely, you've encountered a sewer blockage. A sewer can stop flowing for many reasons, including frozen ground and impacted soil. The pipes can also be blocked by grease, paper or any other foreign matter. Root infiltration is a different issue. This happens when the roots of nearby trees or plants enter the sewer line at the joint and then grow to overflow the pipe, creating a hair-like root mass. These blockages, if not addressed immediately, could lead to the pipeline burst, breaking, or collapsing. The damage could lead to the necessity of replacing the sewer line.
