Sewer Line Repair and Replacement
Sewer damage can quickly result in an overwhelming mess. Sewer gas odor, slow drains, cracks in your foundation, and sewer backup are telltale signs of sewer damage that requires sewer line repair or replacement.
When you notice an issue with your sewer line, immediately call the professionals at Barney's Plumbing. We'll begin by using a sewer line locating tool to detect the sewer lines beneath your property. Then, we'll carefully evaluate the damage and determine the best course of action: repair or replacement.
While small cracks or holes in the sewer line can usually be repaired, significant damage may require sewer line replacement, and potentially mainline replacement. Our professionals will only recommend a replacement if absolutely necessary.
Common Causes of Sewer Damage
Sewer damage can occur without warning and require extensive repairs or replacements. Usually, sewer damage is no fault of the home or business owner. Instead, it comes from weather conditions, poor installation, or acts of nature.
The most common causes of sewer damage include the following:
3 Steps to Professional Sewer Restoration
Step 1: Call Barney's Plumbing & Sewer Services 24/7 for Sewer Services
Sewer damage is often a plumbing emergency. At Barney's Plumbing & Sewer Services, we're available 24/7 to perform sewer services for homeowners and business owners. Call us at (253) 498-5434, and we'll send a licensed plumber your way shortly.
Step 2: Receive a Free Inspection and Estimate
When we arrive at your property, we'll discuss your concerns with your sewer line and conduct a sewer inspection to find the root of the problem. We'll then determine whether to use trenchless or standard sewer repair methods — the former does not require digging on your property.
Step 3: Watch Our Crew Get to Work
Then, we'll get to work repairing your sewer damage and replacing sections of the piping as necessary. Of course, we must sometimes complete the work in more than one visit. In that case, we'll ensure your sewer system is safe and your home or business comfortable before leaving for the day.
Trenchless Sewer Repair
Trenchless sewer repair is a modern strategy for fixing sewer damage. Traditional sewer line repair involves digging through the flooring and foundation, requiring subsequent restoration of these areas.
While traditional sewer repair is sometimes necessary, trenchless repair presents a less destructive alternative. If this strategy works for your property, we will access your plumbing cleanout, find a few small access points along your sewer line, and make repairs.
Trenchless sewer repair includes installing an epoxy-saturated tube liner in the drainage pipes. This method creates a new pipe layer that seals cracks or holes within the old pipe. Once the epoxy hardens, it becomes stronger than PVC and has a lifespan of up to 50 years, providing long-term structural support for your sewer line.
