Small issues with your pipes can become big, expensive problems in no time at all. Pipe problems can result in mold, serious water damage, and other concerns that are difficult to remedy.
The most common pipe repair issue is clogging. Typical clogs are local and cause specific problems with that drain. A camera inspection will determine the nature of the clog and where it is. Often, snaking is the easiest way to clear a local clog. In some cases, the clog may be deeper in the system. Symptoms can include slow drainage in multiple drains, gurgling from toilets, and water levels in toilets rising and falling.
Pipes may become compromised over time due to various causes. Those include deterioration from old age, limescale, and corrosion. Pipes behind your walls or under your floors are relatively easy to exchange. Replacing buried pipes is more complex. The traditional approach is to excavate, but trenching can be expensive, time-consuming, and disruptive. Plumbers will generally prefer trenchless pipe replacement or repair whenever possible.
Hydrojetting is an example of a trenchless repair for deep blockages. This approach can even clear out invasive tree roots without damaging the pipe. The process uses a machine that forces water under pressure through the plumbing system. There’s a specialized head that directs the water ahead of and behind it. A plumber also controls the jetting via a monitor to ensure the entire blockage is clear.
A common example of trenchless replacement is a cured-in-place pipe (CIPP). Using advanced machinery, a plumber inserts a resin-filled liner into the old pipe. The equipment then inflates the liner like a bladder. Over time, the resin hardens. The liner becomes the new interior of the pipe and allows water to flow without leaking.
