Sewer Line Repairs

There are different sewer line repair options and each depends on the problem that exists. Due to the constant usage, sewer lines can face issues such as clogs, leaks, deterioration, and damage. Clogs typically result from accumulation of debris and buildup from items that go down the drains. Leaks and damages can be caused by many external factors such as roots from trees, chemicals from cleaning solutions and chemical drain cleaners, earthquakes, and more. Deterioration is simply the result of time and usage. While pipes are manufactured and installed to last a long time, nothing is built to last forever and with time sewer lines will weaken and deteriorate.

So what are some plumbing repair options for clogged or damaged sewer lines?

1. Hydro Jetting– When dealing with clogged and blocked sewer lines, hydro jetting is one of the most effective solutions. Hydro jetting uses high pressure water to break up the cause of your clog and flush it out of your main line and into the city sewer or septic tank.
2. Trench Plumbing– Sewer lines run outside of the home or business into the city sewer or septic tank which means the line most likely goes through an outdoor space. In order to access the line, plumbers will need to dig a trench to access the sewer line and perform the necessary repairs. Once these repairs are completed, the line is covered back up with the dirt that was dug up.
