What should you ?

In the past you might have to dig up your yard, driveway and the sidewalks. The cost of doing this was usually extremely and time consuming.

Today there are other options. including trenchless sewer repair. With modern technology and equipment Streamline Plumbing can ease the problem of broken sewer lines and save our clients time and money.

What is Trenchless Sewer Repair?

In the past the  only way to find a broken sewer line was to dig a trench with heavy equipment to find the broken area of your sewer line. This digging is known as a trench and you would need to dig until you came across the broken area.

Trenchless sewer repair means that instead of digging a trench that could end up being up to 15 feet deep. you would only have to dig a minimum at each end of the sewer line known as a access point. Once they have access the trained plumber will push a resin-coated pipe into the sewer line. Next, there is compressed air into the sewer line through the pipe.

After the compressed air hardens the resin pipe you now have a new sewer pipe inside the old broken one. This is just a simple explanation of how to repair a broken sewer pipe without digging up your yard. The trained staff at Streamline Plumbing will be able to explain in more detail about the latest plumbing technology.

Trenchless Sewer Repair Saves You Money

Conventional sewer repair means a lot of digging and your yard will be the first victim. The digging may also affect your walkways and driveways. When you realize the cost of heavy equipment, labor, and the replacement of your lawn, concrete or asphalt driveways and sidewalks, the cost could be astronomical.

Trenchless sewer repair only requires to small access points for your new sewer line. You could save thousands of dollars by saving on labor, equipment and materials.
