Causes of Broken Sewer Pipes
There are a few different reasons that your sewer pipe can become clogged, cracked, damaged, or broken. When you call us for sewer line inspection and repair, we’ll use an innovative video camera plumbing inspection process to determine what is causing your sewer line problems. The most common causes of sewer line damage are:
- Tree roots that have infiltrated the sewer pipe and have caused breaks, cracks, and holes
- Little or no maintenance of your sewer line or plumbing
- A build-up of hair, grease, oil, fat, bathroom products, hair, and more in your sewer line
- Ground that frequently freezes and thaws in a short period of time
- Nearby earthquakes, construction, or heavy traffic
- Wear and tear of the pipes due to age
- Improper sewer line installation, design, or layout
- Sewer system backup from the city’s sewer line
How We Complete Sewer Line Repair
Once we complete our plumbing video camera inspection, we can determine the fastest and most cost-effective method of completing your sewer line repairs. Our sewer line repairs are trenchless, which means we don’t need to dig up your yard or demolish any structures to get to your pipes. We may recommend one or both techniques for sewer line repair:
- Pipe Relining Process - We can give you new pipes from the inside out by lining the interior of your sewer pipes with a quick-hardening substance that prevents cracks and breaks and seals up water leaks. This method is trenchless and minimally invasive and can be completed quickly.
- Pipe Bursting Process - We can also use hydraulics to break apart pipes that are too damaged for pipe relining. Our hydraulic system bursts pipes so we can seamlessly install new ones in their place.
Once we complete your sewer line repairs, we will recommend that you schedule routine preventative plumbing maintenance. Plumbing maintenance like regular sewer line inspections and drain cleaning services can prevent a buildup of sludge in your pipes and reduce your risk of rust, corrosion, breakages, cracks, leaks, and bursts. We offer an Advantage Plan to help our customers keep up with routine plumbing maintenance.
