Some things in life are messy and there is no way to avoid. The youngest children eating for the very first times. Sloppy, messy roads after a warm day following a significant snowfall. Dusty cornfields during a dry summer harvest. All messy. All unavoidable. Other things could be messy, but the mess can also be avoided. Trenchless sewer replacement is one of the jobs in life that can be much less messy, less destructive, than you might imagine. Trenchless pipe repair, while not used by all plumbing companies in America, allows a contractor to repair or replace your sewer line faster and more efficiently then traditional ?dig up and replace? methods still used by many contractors.
If you have the option, why wouldn’t you hire plumbing contractors who use the state of the art technology trenchless pipe repair? Using sewer camera inspection and other advanced equipment, the most highly experienced crews can handle any size trenchless sewer repair jobs. They are able to complete a residential home repair, as well as big industrial projects. Why would you ever let a contractor tear up your yard or breakdown other structures in and around your building to replace your sewer line when there is a better, hassle free and less expensive alternative? Trenchless pipe repair is an option used by the plumbing services with the latest technology.
Even though 78% of Angie’s List poll respondents hadn’t heard of “no dig” sewer technology, this less invasive repair technique is not really new. Trenchless repair methods actually entered the residential home market 10 to 15 years ago. Despite its availability, many consumers are still unaware that these advanced plumbing technologies are an option. Unfortunately, because sewer pipe replacement decisions are often made when an emergency plumbing situation arises, both home owners and businesses often do not have the time to complete important research.
Because trenchless sewer replacement uses some of the latest technology and equipment, this process can be more expensive than traditional “dig up and replace” methods. Not surprisingly though, 73% of potential customers say they’d pay more for sewer pipe replacement if it could preserve existing landscaping, patio, deck or other expensive outdoor features.
As an example, trenchless options can sometimes cost anywhere from 30% to 50% more than conventional digging. The trenchless option, however, can still be more cost effective when you realize you do not have the added expense of paying thousands of dollars in additional restorative work.
Some messes can not be avoided. Replacing old or damaged sewer lines though does not need to be as destructive and messy as you might think.
