What Are Common Causes of Sewer Line Damage?

Signs of a Broken or Damaged Sewer Line
When your sewer line is damaged, you will often notice signs of struggle. It’s important to contact us if you notice any of the following signs of a damaged sewer line, including:
- Low or no water in toilets
- Sewage odor near drains
- Sewage backup in drains and toilets
- Slow-moving drains
- Strange flooding in the yard
- Greener grass over sewer pipe
What Is Tree Root Intrusion?
Tree roots grow towards sewer lines in search of hydration. They break through tiny cracks and crevices in the pipes and continue to grow. The roots can clog the interior of your pipes as they grow and continue to drink the water.
Solutions for Damaged Sewer Lines
Our service professionals will assess your sewer pipe damage and find an effective solution. We do as much as we can to avoid sewer line replacement services. Some of the most common solutions for damaged sewer lines include the following:
Pipe Relining – Pipe relining involves giving you new sewer pipes from the inside out. We apply a lining that hardens inside your existing damaged pipe.
Burst Pipe Hydraulic Replacement – We can pull a new sewer pipe through your damaged pipe. We use hydraulics to bust apart the existing pipe and seamlessly replace it.
