How We Replace Cast Iron Sewer Lines Without Digging Trenches On Your Livonia Property

Whether you are a home or business owner in the Livonia area, it is safe to come to the conclusion that no one would like to have to use traditional dig-and-replace methods to fix and replace their sewer lines.

Digging trenches causes collateral damage and can take weeks to repair. New trenchless technologies allow our team at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Detroit to replace pipes of any kind in an affordable and eco-friendly way.

How Trenchless Pipe Repairs Benefit Residents In Livonia

Trenchless pipe replacement does not have to take up too much of your time or create a problem for your home or business. There are various materials pipes can be made out of, and our team at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Detroit specializes in the replacement of cast iron sewer lines in a safe way that will not damage your property.

Our trenchless approach to the replacement of cast iron sewer repair is to inspect, clean, renew, inspect again, and then test your lines. Cast iron pipes are heavy and subject to rusting because of the metal and constant water exposure. To eliminate destruction and heavy costs, we can clean the pipe through hydro jetting or drilling. In most instances, all that is needed is a quick blast of water pressure to prepare the pipe for renewal and replacement. After cleaning, the pipe can be resealed through pipelining.

This method lines the pipe with an epoxy coat which creates a new smoothly shaped pipe within the old cast-iron one. This process is known as pipe re-lining.

If the problem cannot be taken care of with pipe lining, pipe bursting technology can be used to replace the pipe altogether. Pipe bursting allows our team to insert a bursting head onto a new pipe, and as the head is pushed through the old pipe, the new pipe is put in its place. Both trenchless methods are effective and allow for your Livonia property to be preserved while your cast iron drains are replaced with minimal time and no hassle.
