How does Trenchless Sewer Line Repair Work?
Instead of digging a large trench around a faulty pipe to repair it, trenchless sewer line repair – also referred to as trenchless pipe repair – makes it possible for sewer repair specialists to repair or replace your sewer pipes without damaging your lawn. While there will still be some digging involved, the destruction to the surrounding surface area will be minimal. This means more money in your pockets, which is why more and more property owners are opting for this option.
Before any digging begins, sewer line specialists first assess the extent of the damage by running a long flexible pipe down a drain inside your home to inspect the pipe. At the tip of the pipe is a camera that allows the plumber to see where the damaged area is. Once the damaged area has been located, the sewer line specialist will determine where the sewer pipe can be accessed at the shallowest point. Most times, this is either in the basement or some area close to the home. Then, a hydro-jet is used to flush out the host pipe, and a mechanical plumbing snake clears out any remaining debris.
The sewer line is then repaired as needed. If it is damaged beyond repair, we use our advanced torpedo technology to fix the problem. We lower a pipe-cutting head that pushes the damaged pipe out, allowing the new pipe to easily take its place.
