Signs You Need Trenchless Sewer Line Repair
Sewer lines eventually wear out and may suffer damage that leads to blockages or leaks. Contact us immediately if you notice any of the following signs indicating your sewer line may need repair.
Constant Clogging
A single clogged drain does not mean that you need trenchless plumbing services. However, several clogged drains in your home indicate a clogged main sewer line.
Sewage Smells
The sewer line needs repair if you smell a foul odor from several drains. Foul odors usually indicate a blocked sewer line. You may also hear a gurgling sound caused by gas bubbling through the drainpipe.
Unusually Green Yard
In the event of a sewer line leak, waste will rise to the surface. As a result, grass can grow rapidly and have a darker green color. If you notice sudden green patches, you should seek professional help to fix the sewer line leak.
Pesky Drain Issues
If one sink drains efficiently, but water immediately rises from another sink or toilet, your drains may need an inspection. A blockage or damage to the sewer line can prevent proper drainage.

Types of Trenchless Sewer Line Repair
The type of trenchless sewer line repair depends on your preferences, circumstances, and budget. Our team will come to your home and inspect the sewer line to find the best solution to resolve any problems.
Pipe Bursting
Trenchless pipe bursting involves breaking and expanding the existing sewer pipes. During this process, a cone-shaped head gets pulled through the old pipe. The head destroys the existing pipe while laying the new pipe.
Slip Lining
Trenchless sewer line repair began with slip lining. This process involves inserting a liner into a pipe to fix leaks and improve structural stability. A new pipe with dimensions smaller than the host pipe gets pushed or pulled into the host pipe.
Cured-in-Place Pipes
Trenchless cured-in-place pipe lining reinforces and seals broken pipes using epoxy. After placing an epoxy-soaked liner in the pipe, we use a special inflation tool to expand the liner so it will dry in the shape of the pipe walls.
