Although there isn’t always a warning sign prior to a sewer line collapse, keep a close eye on your lawn. If you notice your yard has a sinkhole or there’s an odd odor coming from your it, you most likely have a problem with your sewer line.
Sewer line replacements are a MAJOR plumbing job. It’s also a project that shouldn’t be put off. A soggy lawn or a collapsed sidewalk or driveway can cause significant water damage to your home or business. You and your family may also be exposed to health hazards associated with sewage exposure. This is why repairing a sewer line problem needs to be done quickly and efficiently.
Thankfully, there’s no longer just one way to replace your sewer line. Alternatives to traditional sewer line repair have emerged. No longer does there have to be a ton of digging and significant damage to your yard or driveway. In fact, trenchless sewer line repair technology has been found to save on replacement costs and help prevent future repairs. In this post, T-Top Plumbing – Ventura CA trenchless sewer line specialists – look at 4 benefits of trenchless sewer line repairs.
Trenchless sewer line repair or replacement is a relatively new technology. That said, it’s been used safely in the U.S. for over two decades. So, what makes trenchless pipe repair so much better than traditional sewer line repair or replacement? Here are a few reasons to go trenchless.
You’ll Save Money
Compared to traditional sewer line repairs, trenchless sewer line replacement will cost you significantly less. For starters, no excavation is necessary. Because sewer pipes are underground, assessing these pipes to repair or replace them usually meant extensive digging.
This is why traditional sewer line replacement has always meant digging up your yard and busting through any concrete surrounding your home or business. Upon hearing sewer line repair, people envision a gigantic trench running the length of their property. An eyesore. Not only is it inconvenient but it’s also expensive. Once repairs are finished, a landscaper may be needed to replant shrubs and trees or a concrete company may be hired to repair your driveway or sidewalk.
As the name implies, there’s no trench with trenchless sewer line replacement – so there’s no surface disruption. Two small holes at the beginning and end of the sewer line will need to be replaced – that’s all.
Needless to say, opting for trenchless can potentially save you tens of thousands of dollars when all is said and done.
Quick and Accurate Diagnostics
When tree roots clog, burst, or invade your main sewer pipe, “the root” of the problem needs to be identified before the line can be repaired or replaced.
The problem is these sewer pipes are often deep underground. This can present quite a challenge for your plumber. Camera inspections and pipe diagnostics that require no digging whatsoever are possible with trenchless technology. This saves a vast amount of time as well as money and hassle. Trenchless technology allows for quicker diagnostics and resolution.
Faster Repair Process/Minimal Downtime
An out-of-service sewer line is a huge inconvenience. Especially if it’s a commercial property with a sewer line problem.
Whether you have a residential or commercial property, trenchless sewer line repair or replacement will get you back up and running much quicker than the traditional method with excavation. This means you won’t be inconvenienced for a lengthy period of time. This is critical if you need a sewer line replacement for a building housing your business.
Future Protection
The last significant benefit of trenchless sewer line repair is it helps prevent future problems with your sewer system. This is because trenchless technology replaces your old line with a better and more structurally sound pipe made with special epoxy resins. This resin pipe isn’t going to rust. It will also stand up to root intrusion. This keeps your sewer line free of debris and flowing smoothly for years to come.
