Trenchless

Not all sewer and water lines can be repaired using trenchless methods. The suitability depends on factors such as the age, condition, and material of the existing pipes. For instance, pipes that are severely collapsed or have extensive structural damage may not be candidates for trenchless repair. Additionally, pipe diameter and accessibility are important considerations, as trenchless methods require small access points to insert the repair equipment. A professional inspection, often using camera inspections, will determine whether trenchless repair is feasible. In many cases, trenchless methods are effective, but a traditional approach may be necessary for heavily damaged lines.

To determine if trenchless repair is the right option for your situation, a professional will conduct a camera inspection of your sewer or water lines. This allows them to assess the condition of the pipes, looking for factors like cracks, leaks, or minor collapses. If the pipes are generally intact but have specific areas of damage or blockage, trenchless repair may be ideal. However, if the pipes are severely deteriorated or completely collapsed, traditional excavation might be necessary. The size, material, and accessibility of your pipes also play a role in determining whether trenchless technology is suitable for your repair needs.
