Helpful Information
If you’re facing issues from a damaged sewer line, you might wonder what options you have to fix it. Many plumbing companies offer either traditional pipe replacement or trenchless sewer line repair. If you want to disrupt your outdoor area as little as possible, you might wonder, “How does trenchless sewer line replacement work?” Thompson Family Plumbing explores the ins and outs of trenchless pipe lining below.
First, Identify the Problem with Your Sewer Lines
No matter which route you choose, you must first diagnose the sewer line problem. The existing pipe might have:
- Cracks, holes, or corrosion, allowing wastewater to spill out.
- Buildup from waste or minerals lining the inside of the line.
- Tree roots breaking up and entering the pipe.
Each problem prevents water from flowing freely or allows it to escape into the ground or your home. Pipe lining and pipe bursting can resolve these concerns.
Next, Remove the Reason for the Damaged Pipe
For example, tree roots might overtake the existing sewer line. Therefore, your technicians must remove the roots before they can begin trenchless pipe repair. After all, the issue with your old sewer line could eventually develop in the new sewer pipe unless you eliminate it.
Execute Trenchless Sewer Repair to Mend the Sewer Pipes
So, how does trenchless sewer line replacement work? That depends on the trenchless method used. The trenchless sewer repair process differs slightly from replacement.
Trenchless Sewer Repair
Technicians execute trenchless pipe repair by digging two small access points at either end of the damaged sewer pipe. They insert a cured-in-place pipe lining, allowing it to cure inside of the damaged pipe. Plumbers typically reserve trenchless pipe lining for minor damage, like small cracks and holes, that doesn’t otherwise affect the overall structural soundness.
The lining performs just like a new pipe. No-dig sewer repair disturbs your lawn and peace as little as possible.
Trenchless Pipe Replacement
Your technicians might choose pipe bursting if trenchless repair doesn’t cut it. They dig the access points, break up the old pipe, and remove the pieces. Then, they insert the new pipe in its place.
Why You Should Choose Trenchless Sewer Line Repair Over Traditional Sewer Line Replacement
Traditional sewer line replacement and repair disrupts your life and lawn. The technicians must excavate deep trenches to access the pipes and perform sewer line repair services. Then, they must cover the excavation area back up with dirt.
This method incurs higher labor costs right out of the gate. Plus, you must eventually pay for landscaping services to replace plants, grass, and other features. The trenchless sewer repair cost is often much lower and causes less disruption for customers.

“Price was more than reasonable, especially last minute”
What a great local family company. Had a little issue today (Saturday). Gave them a call. The lady said she would have someone here between 3 & 5. It was at 1 when I called. 3:00 on the nose Don was here. Don was very friendly and had the broken pipe fixed in no time at all. The price was more than reasonable, especially last minute on a Saturday.

“Took care of it in no time”
Plumbing technician Dean Taylor came over last week to set up a line so I could get a dishwasher installed. I didn’t have the proper setup but he took care of it in no time! Now the installers will have no problem doing it. He was very knowledgeable and professional. I will definitely have him come back for other plumbing jobs. From start to finish everyone I spoke to was very helpful! Their customer service is outstanding!

“Gave me great peace of mind”
Great experience with TFP! They were super professional and friendly, exactly on time, fixed the issue, AND were inexpensive. I received a text when to expect them with a picture of my two technicians (Dean & Kade) AND their license numbers included in the text. This gave me great peace of mind as I am a woman that lives alone. I highly recommend Thompson Family Plumbing!
