Locating Sewer Line Problems
The first step is to assess your sewer line condition and identify the source of the problem. Our plumbers utilize video inspection equipment to find issues in sewer lines without digging up your yard. The tiny video camera is fed down the line and sends a video image to our technicians to assess the problem and recommend the best method for resolving it. We take the time to explain the source of the problem and what is needed to restore your sewer line.
Minimally Invasive Sewer Line Replacement
Whenever possible, we use the trenchless method for sewer line replacement in the bay area. Trenchless technology enables us to replace large pipe sections without excavating the entire length of the sewer line. Trenchless methods require digging two small holes, one on either end of the damaged sewer line. We use a pipe bursting machine to break up the old pipe and pull the brand new sewer line.
The Benefits Of The Pipe Bursting Method Include:
- Minor damage to your property
- Cost-effective
- Faster process
- Less labor-intensive
- Reduces problems with trench settlement
- Increases the flow capacity of the pipe
The new sewer line used in the pipe bursting process is composed of a flexible, durable material impervious to leaks and breakage.
