Sometimes, it’s easy to tell when you need sewer line repairs. For example, if multiple drains back up simultaneously, your sewer line is a likely culprit. Typically, that indicates a need for sewer cleaning. However, some types of sewer line damage can produce similar symptoms. Tree root incursions and collapsed sections are frequent causes of backups. In the case of the former, you need your sewer cleared at least. If the tree roots leave substantial damage in their wake, you may need a repair, as well. In the latter case, you might need a complete sewer line replacement.
You should know that there are two primary ways to clean a sewer line. One uses a motorized auger, which is a type of drain snake that drills through clogs. It works well for certain clogs. The other, more advanced method of sewer line cleaning is hydrojetting. That relies on a high-pressure water stream to scour the inside of your sewer line. It’s very effective against grease clogs and works well with solid clogs. It’s also gentler on your pipes and leaves them clean down to the walls, all while being strong enough to break up tree roots.
Look for the signs that you need sewer line cleaning or repair:
Standing water on property
Foul smells from drains
Unusually lush grass patches
Gurgling noises
Frequent clogs
If the pipes are too damaged to be cleaned and need to be entirely replaced, there are two ways to perform a sewer line replacement. The traditional method involves digging up the entire line and laying a new pipe in its place. When a sewer line suffers severe damage or damage to multiple sections, that’s the preferred method. However, it’s now often possible to perform a pipe relining as a repair method that replaces a damaged section of sewer line. That involves inserting and inflating a flexible epoxy liner into your existing sewer line. Once cured, the epoxy forms a new pipe inside your existing one. A relined pipe typically lasts as long as, or longer than, a newly installed one. Additionally, it requires minimal digging, reducing the overall cost and complexity of the process.
