Identifying Sewer Line Damage 

The main sewer line plays an essential role in a pluming system. Everything that goes down a drain or toilet moves through the main sewer line to the municipal sewer system. An issue in the main sewer line can cause damage to your yard or inside your home or business. When your sewer line fails, sewer line repair or replacement services may be needed. 

Sewer line damage may be caused by: 

• Old or outdated pipes: Although plumbing pipes last for decades, they will eventually wear out and need to be replaced. As sewer pipes age, the pipe material may become corroded or degraded. A pipe that becomes corroded is more likely to fail. 
• Obstructions: Just like clogs develop in drains, the same can happen in the main sewer line. Common causes of sewer line clogs include foreign objects and grease or other debris collecting inside the pipe. 
• Tree root intrusion: Tree roots grow through the ground searching for water. Unfortunately, this may include underground water and sewer lines. As the tree roots grow into the line, they can cause breaks, cracks, or complete collapse of the pipe. 
• Shifting soil: A sewer pipe may fail when the ground under and around the pipe shifts. This can happen in a number of ways, such as the ground settling or using heavy machinery on the ground above the sewer line. 

Accurately diagnosing the cause of the trouble with your sewer line is crucial for solving the problem. Sewer camera inspection is the most effective way to evaluate the condition of an underground sewer line and locate any damage. The in-line video inspection camera is a tiny camera that is designed to move through the sewer line and detect clogs, breaks, collapsed pipes, and other types of damage. 

The results of the camera inspection are used to determine the best method for restoring the sewer line. Trenchless methods, such as pipe lining and pipe bursting, allow the pipe to be repaired without excavating the yard. Pipe lining is a process that creates a new pipe inside the existing pipe using a specialized liner. Pipe bursting is a method that uses a cable and a winch to pull a bursting tool through the existing pipe and pull the new sewer pipe into place.
