Did you know as a homeowner, the section of sewer line under your yard is your responsibility? Often, the homeowner is responsible for the sewer lateral all the way to the County or City main in the street.
If there is an issue caused by tree root damage, backups or clogs, you have to pay a plumber to fix it. This can be very expensive because it includes digging up your landscape, yard, city sidewalk and parts of the street.
Fortunately, there is a more cost-effective and longer lasting technology that is being utilized all across Virginia, Maryland and Washington D.C. called Trenchless Sewer Re-lining. As certified CIPP Liner installers, we do not have to excavate your entire yard or the street in front your home .Generally, using a single access point, we clean the pipe of debris and build-up using specialized de-scaling equipment and then insert a new polyethylene pipe liner that cures in place just a few hours. We can re-line cast iron, clay, PVC and other pipe materials with the polyethylene pipe that has a life span of at least 50 years.
Replacing your sewer line is never fun, but with trenchless sewer line repair, the financial burden is lightened, the disruption to your landscaping and home is minimal and you can rest assured that it will last.
