Sewer problems can be caused by root intrusions. Tree roots can grow close by sewer lines and if they are not handled in a timely manner, they can cause a pipe to shatter, sewer pipe crumbling or other sewer issues. Tree roots are usually the prime suspect when it comes to sewer damage, with thousands of feet of roots constantly seeking moisture and often finding it in your sewer line. Older, sewer pipes are most vulnerable to this problem.

Sewer problems can be caused by root intrusions. Tree roots
can grow close by sewer lines and if they are not handled in a
timely manner, they can cause a pipe to shatter, sewer pipe
crumbling or other sewer issues. Tree roots are usually the
prime suspect when it comes to sewer damage, with thousands
of feet of roots constantly seeking moisture and often finding it
in your sewer line. Older, sewer pipes are most vulnerable to
this problem.
In addition to root damage, a broken or blocked sewer can
happen in a number of ways. Objects can find their way into the
line and cause a blockage. Extreme temperature changes and
general deterioration can cause sewer problems, resulting in
drain buckling or breaking.
Sewer lines can also collapse. If you suspect or see some

we will send our team to help you. We will search for leaking

Trenchless Pipe Repair
Couple of years ago, sewer problems usually meant digging
everywhere in order to find the location of the problem,
requiring considerable repairs to be done after a sewer repair
was completed. Trenchless pipe sewer repair is a faster and
cheaper option that only requires a few drill points. This method
has saved our clients lots of money and their time by removing
the need for massive excavations of their properties. There are
two ways to do trenchless sewer repair: pipe bursting and pipe
relining. With the first method, an existing line is blown apart as
a new pipe is pulled through it. With pipe relining, a fibreglass
line is placed inside the faulty pipe to seal any damage,
creating a repair that can last for up to 50 years.
