Drain & Sewer Cleaning

Whether it's a simple blockage or a complete replacement our technicians are trained to solve your problem quickly and with your total satisfaction.

Trenchless Sewer Lining System

We now have the ability to re-line your old sewer line instead of replacing it. When you re-line your sewer, it eliminates all cracks, leaks, holes or roots that may be causing trouble to your system. Re-lining is one pipe from building to city connection with no joints.

Most homes built prior to the early 1970's had residential sewer and drain lines composed of either cast iron or clay. Traditionally, you will find cast iron from property drop to beneath the house (generally near the sidewalk). The primary problem seen is cracking and the bottom of the pipe rusting out. Clay pipes were traditionally used from the property drop to the city sewer main. In most areas, residents are responsible for the maintenance of their lines from house to the city saddle, which is located within 18 inches of the city main. The primary and extremely common problems seen in clay pipes are root intrusion at the joints and cracks.

Root intrusion into sewer pipe systems is reported to cause 50% of all sewer blockages. Interference between trees and sewer systems is likely to occur in older systems and in cracked pipes. Factors that contribute to damage include older pipes with joints, shallow pipes, small-dimension pipes, and fast-growing tree species. Cost associated with caring for root intrusion in the past has been expensive and laborious and, unfortunately, is rarely a permanent fix.

Trenchless technology creates a seamless pipe, which prevents infiltration, and restores the structural integrity of the original pipe, and eliminates the joints which weaken and allow root intrusion.

Calcification in Sewer Lines Over time

Calcium deposits from water form a crusted coating called "calcification" which clogs up household pipes and drain lines, especially when hard water is in use. Once pipes are lined with epoxy, calcification can no longer occur because the deposits cannot adhere to the interior walls of the new epoxy barrier pipe.

Ground Movement Affects Sewer Line Integrity Major

Seismic activity can cause breaks in sewer and drain lines, but more frequently, minor seismic activity causes cracking and structural damage at the joints. The seamless, "joint less" nature of the PIP method means not only is the existing problem solved, but the new, seamless pipe will avert future problems as well.
