Sewer Repair & Renewal
When your main drain, typically in your basement, backs up, it is more than likely your main sewer line. You will have options to either repair or replace the sewer. If you choose to do a Sewer Repair, it is typically a spot repair with no guarantee it won’t happen again in another spot. If you choose to do a Sewer Replacement, you have a few options that are permanent, and you will never have this issue again in your lifetime. Call us to learn more.
If tree roots are clogging your sewer main line, you can either choose to have a spot repair or replace your sewer drain. Unfortunately, if you choose to do a spot repair, you will most likely have to call a plumber again in a few months.
Tree roots love the moisture and nutrients in your sewer line and won’t stop growing, even if you use a rooter. Also, if your sewer pipe is old and you choose to do a spot repair, you will probably have to do another spot repair somewhere else along the sewer line.

How Pull and Place Sewer Renewal Works
The repair packer is lowered into the damaged pipeline through an access point above ground.
Typically this can be a cleanout, or even through a toilet drain.
The ultraviolet packer is then pulled perfectly into place.
The bladder is inflated with air pressure to set the repair.
The UV lights are turned on, activating the resin’s curing process.
The repair is fully cured in 10 minutes or less.
The repair is considered complete and ready for service once the curing process has finished. The result? A once-damaged host pipe is renewed, saving the homeowner thousands of dollars.
The same repair can be made in vertical pipelines as well, even without ground access.
