Our Austin Sewer Repair Services
As soon as you suspect a sewer line issue, it’s time to take action. Delaying repair can lead to sewer line leaks and foundation damage. Not only would this cost you hundreds of dollars in water bills, but it would also make your property unsafe.
Once you call us, we’ll inspect your sewer line. Depending on how bad the damage is, we’ll choose one of the following repair services:
1. Pipe Relining
Pipe relining involves inserting curable pipe lining into your existing pipe, inflating the lining, and curing it into place. This process seals small cracks and punctures, fully restoring your sewer line. Best of all, it requires no digging and takes hours, rather than days.
2. Burst Pipe Hydraulic Replacement
For severely damaged pipes, we use a trenchless sewer line replacement technique known as pipe bursting. We’ll use a bursting tool to break up your existing pipes. Then, we’ll slide a new pipe into the hole your old pipes left behind. Like relining, this process requires no digging.
Common Causes of Sewer Line Damage
Sewer line damage is often preventable if you know what can damage pipes. Here are a few of the most common causes of sewer line damage:
- Poor maintenance
