Benefits of trenchless plumbing repair

Something as simple as a clogged drain or complex as a broken sewer line can lead to a great deal of property damage and thousands of dollars in repairs.

Most homeowners don’t pay their sewer lines any attention until there is a problem.

In most cases, sewer lines last for many years. However, wear and tear gradually adds up and at some point, repair or replacement will be necessary. Traditional excavation is labor-intensive, time-consuming and costly. The plumber needs to dig a trench to expose the buried pipe. Once repairs are completed, the ground needs to be filled back in. Oftentimes, landscaping is negatively impacted. It can take several days to handle a sewer line replacement and several more to restore the appearance of the property. Modern trenchless technology offers a quicker, less expensive and more environmentally friendly opportunity to replace or repair problematic sewer lines. The technology has been around for several decades, but most homeowners aren’t fully aware of how it works. It allows technicians to perform repairs without excavation. A lot less time is spent digging, which accelerates turnaround of the project. Instead of several days, the service is most often completed in a single day. Because it requires one or two small holes to reach the swerve lines, there is far less upheaval to landscaping. There’s no risk of hitting another line. Sewer line replacements and repairs are usually the most costly plumbing issue faced by homeowners. With trenchless methods, there’s less labor and less strain on the budget. The technique is just as effective as conventional methods and can actually increase flow capacity.
