Common Reasons for Sewer Lines to Need Repair

While there are countless reasons a sewer line may end up damaged, here are a few we’ve seen over and over:

• Tree roots growing into line
• Old lines rusting or accumulating internal buildup
• Natural disasters damaging lines
• Blockage due to flushing or running inappropriate substances down drains
• Erosion from overuse of chemical plumbing liquids

Of course, we won’t know for sure what’s wrong with your sewer line until we take a look at it.

Sewer Line Repair Options

There are two primary ways to repair or replace a sewer line: trenchless methods and open-trench methods. Trenchless methods involve inserting devices through your pipes to repair them from the inside. Open-trench repairs, on the other hand, involve opening up your yard for direct access to pipes.

Trenchless methods are much less disruptive and costly, assuming minor repairs; a full trenchless replacement can be more complex, however, and may not be suitable for all yards or sewer lines.

How You Know Whether You Need Repair or Replacement

You might replace your sewer line if there is damage across a wide portion of it, making specific repairs difficult, impossible, or unreasonably expensive. You may also consider replacement if your pipes are older, and it seems likely for more problems to develop in the near future if you don’t go ahead with a new installation.
