Sewer lines play an integral part in every home and business. Sewer lines run all debris, waste, and water from your drains, toilets, and appliances out of your home and into the city’s sewer system. These lines are not visible as they run deep underground, but their placement leaves them prone to external damage. The crucial role of sewer lines is easily overlooked until a disruption occurs. Leaks, back-ups, and flooding can quickly turn hazardous, creating an uncomfortable experience in your home. So, what should you do if your sewer line is damaged?
Given that sewer lines exist deep underground, traditional repair methods call for plumbers to dig large trenches to access them. It’s a time-consuming method that can become quite complex if the sewer pipe runs underneath custom landscaping, gardens, or concrete foundations. With the exposure of trenchless methods, technology, and equipment, an experienced plumbing team can access your sewer line without the need to excavate the space above it. Trenchless sewer line repair allows plumbers to get the job done with little to no digging required making your repair more efficient and environmentally friendly.
Sewer lines are built to be durable and long-lasting. But like all substances, sewer line materials deteriorate and break down over time, making them susceptible to interior and exterior damage. Given the location of your sewer line, many external factors can damage the pipe creating an urgent need for repair.
Causes of sewer line damage include:
While the causes for damage mentioned above are the most common, the outcome of the damage may not always be obvious. There are multiple indicators of sewer line damage that you can look out for such as foul smells, sewage back-ups, and very slow drains. If you’re dealing with these issues and suspect sewer line damage you should contact the Tankless Guys right away.
The cost of sewer line repair depends on many factors. The cost of materials can vary depending on the type of pipe used. Sewer pipe materials can vary based on the age of your home. Newer sewer pipe materials consist of PVC or ABS pipes. Older homes may have cast-iron pipes, clay pipes, or even Orangeburg pipes.
The existing pipe material and length of your sewer line are used to assess repair methods and estimate the effort that will go into the project. From there, expected labor, equipment use, and hourly rates can be determined. If your existing sewer lines are dated, it may be more cost-effective to do a sewer line replacement. We can provide full evaluations and estimates so you can compare the cost of repair vs the cost of replacement.
