Trenchless Sewer Repair

When your sewer line has problems but remains structurally intact, trenchless repair offers an ideal solution that addresses damage while leaving most of your original pipe in place.

The pipe lining process (CIPP) involves:

  • Thorough cleaning of the existing pipe
  • Insertion of a resin-saturated liner throughout the damaged section
  • Inflation of the liner against the original pipe walls
  • Curing the resin to create a seamless new pipe within the old one
  • Final camera inspection confirming proper installation

This method seals cracks, closes separated joints, and prevents root intrusion while creating a smooth interior surface that improves flow. The resulting pipe-within-a-pipe typically lasts 50+ years with proper maintenance.

Trenchless repair works exceptionally well for Sacramento properties with:

  • Pipes with multiple small cracks or leaking joints
  • Root intrusion in otherwise sound pipes
  • Aging pipes showing early deterioration
  • Situations where excavation would be particularly disruptive

Trenchless Sewer Replacement

When your sewer line has collapsed, severely deteriorated, or experienced extensive damage, complete replacement becomes necessary. Trenchless pipe bursting provides an innovative solution without extensive excavation.

This method completely replaces your damaged sewer line with modern materials while minimizing property disruption. The new pipe offers improved flow capacity and exceptional durability against root intrusion, ground shifting, and corrosion common in Sacramento’s soil conditions.Trenchless replacement is valuable for properties with extensive damage, collapsed pipes, or systems requiring upsizing to meet modern household demands.

The Trenchless Repair Process

Our streamlined process ensures exceptional results with minimal disruption. We begin with a comprehensive camera inspection to identify issues. After determining the optimal method, our specialists create small access points rather than extensive trenches. Using specialized equipment, we either install a liner within your existing pipe or completely replace it through pipe bursting. Most projects complete within 1-2 days, followed by testing to verify perfect operation before restoring access points.

FAQS

What are the main advantages of trenchless sewer repair?

Trenchless methods preserve landscaping and hardscapes by eliminating extensive digging. You’ll save on restoration costs while experiencing minimal disruption. Most projects complete in 1-2 days versus weeks for traditional excavation, and the repairs offer exceptional durability with modern materials that typically outlast conventional replacements.

How long do trenchless sewer repairs last?

Modern trenchless repairs typically last 50+ years with proper maintenance. The epoxy resin in pipe lining creates a seamless, corrosion-resistant surface, while pipe bursting uses high-density polyethylene pipes that resist root intrusion and ground shifting. Both methods often carry manufacturer warranties of 25-50 years.

Is my Sacramento property suitable for trenchless sewer repair?

Most properties qualify, though certain factors influence suitability. Our camera inspection determines if your situation allows for trenchless approaches. Limitations might include severely collapsed pipes (for lining), pipes with multiple sharp bends, or properties without proper access points. We’ll evaluate your specific circumstances before recommending the optimal approach.

How much does trenchless sewer repair cost compared to traditional methods?

While core repair costs may be 20-30% higher than traditional excavation, trenchless methods eliminate expensive restoration for landscaping, concrete, and hardscapes. When accounting for total project costs, Sacramento homeowners typically save 30-40% while avoiding the significant property disruption associated with conventional repairs.

Can tree roots damage a trenchless sewer repair?

Modern trenchless materials resist root intrusion effectively. Pipe lining creates a seamless, joint-free system that eliminates entry points for roots, while pipe bursting uses high-density polyethylene that forms a continuous barrier. Both methods significantly outperform traditional pipes in preventing root damage.

How do I maintain my sewer line after trenchless repair?

Schedule professional cleaning every 2-3 years to prevent buildup. Avoid flushing non-biodegradable items like wipes, feminine products, or grease. For properties with significant trees near sewer lines, consider root treatments that discourage growth toward pipes. Armstrong Plumbing offers maintenance programs specifically designed for Sacramento homes.
