Traditional replacement techniques require the full-scale excavation of a home’s entire sewer line to access and replace the damaged pipe. In contrast, trenchless plumbing avoids the mess and hassle of digging, with a shorter completion time.
With trenchless pipe lining projects, our first step is to assess the extent of the problem using a sewer video camera. Then, we clean the line out to prepare it for rehabilitation. Once we’ve cleared away any blockages from the pipe, our next step is to repair it. We place an inflatable pipe liner coated with a special liquid epoxy resin into your old sewer pipe. Once it’s positioned correctly, we inflate it and allow the resin to coat the walls of the damaged pipe. As it dries, the epoxy seals off any cracks and creates a resilient new pipe that will last decades.
After an additional inspection and testing, your new pipe will be ready to use. This entire process usually takes our licensed technicians less than a day to complete.
The Trenchless Benefit
- Cost-Effective
Trenchless pipe lining requires fewer workers to complete the job, while leaving sidewalks, lawns, patios, parking lots and landscaping intact. This often results in major cost savings for property owners.
- Less Cleanup
Trenchless pipe lining only requires our technicians to dig two small access holes at either end of the pipe, which causes far less messy property damage.
- Less Labor-Intensive
Less digging equals less equipment and fewer man-hours spent at the worksite.
- Environmentally Friendly
Trenchless sewer line replacement methods are more eco-friendly than conventional repair processes. Not only do traditional processes use more full but the digging runs the risk of unearthing toxic substances that might leach into the water supply. Eliminating the need for digging a trench means reducing all the health risks associated with digging, keeping the toxic substances underground and promoting safety and health.
- Improved Pipeline Efficiency
Trenchless pipe repair improves the overall function of the pipe itself. The new pipe will be seamless and damage-resistant, with improved flow capacity as well.
