Working on getting a major sewer repair taken care of is no one’s idea of a good time. This is a major project and if you’re working on it, that means that you don’t have a working plumbing system in your home. Anytime this type of disaster strikes, you realize that you don’t want anything to do with another disaster like this anytime soon. You want to make sure the repair that is being made is one that is going to be long lasting. Equal Rooter Pipe Lining is here to talk about pipe lining services to fix your sewer line issue and whether or not you can count on this as a long-term solution.
How Sewer Pipe Lining Works
If you have a sewer line that is cracked or broken, you can repair that broken line with pipe lining rather than traditional replacement methods. This is a trenchless method in which the old pipe is lined with a new, pipe that is cured in place without any digging involved. You can have a new, durable pipe put in place without removing the old, corroded sewer line.
Traditional Approach to Sewer Repair
The old approach of digging and replacing your sewer line has been effective for many years. This involves digging up your driveway, landscaping, and even part of the floors in your home to get to the sewer line and replace it. After this is complete, the new PVC pipe is put in place and the massive hole will have to be backfilled.
Trenchless Approach to Sewer Repair
One the other hand, you can turn to pipe lining rather than digging out the old sewer line. This requires little excavation to get the same job done. You don’t have to worry about an entire trench dug in your yard. This also means that the project doesn’t take as long, and it isn’t going to cost as much to have the job done.
Long Term Expectations of Pipe Lining Sewer Repairs
Before you get nervous that this sounds too good to be true, and there is no way that it lasts as long as traditional methods, we will stop you right there. The lifespan of these pipe lining repairs is anywhere from 30-50 years before you are thinking about this again. Factors that play a role in how long yours will last include:
– Condition of the original host pipe
– Soil conditions & ground movement
– Installation & quality of the contracted services
– The contents you put down your drains
