And if your sewer pipe is busted, the repair is a job to get done immediately and professionally.
Before 1980, pipes were made with clay, and while they were durable and environmentally friendly, they only last between fifty to sixty years. They are getting up there in age now, as well as the polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes, which were installed after 1980. PVC pipes can last a lifetime, but accidents can happen. While in the ground doing their daily job, they may encounter roots from nearby trees that threaten to puncture both clay and PVC surfaces. Other times, seams may burst open, or some disturbance can cause leaks. In cases like this, it is for the best that pipes receive maintenance through trenchless relining.
When a sewer pipe breaks, the first question asked is what step to take next. The second question is “How did this happen?” A pipe can break due to any amount of reasons, but usually it includes the same pattern of reasons. Common reasons include:

But why even think about trenchless technology; what is wrong with the old ‘dig and replace’? Trenchless technology is much safer for the environment, as there is no need to dig any large holes. Your property is thus protected. There are different kinds of trenchless technology, and we are prepared to utilize all of them:
While each trenchless service is unique, they all have one thing in common: it is all about the relining. A new pipe, small enough to fit in the diameter but not small enough to cause a clog, is wedged inside the old one. The new pipe is more flexible and without seams, so there are no breaks in the seam to worry about. Still wondering what makes trenchless technology so great?
