Common Causes of Sewer Line Damage
While normal drain use can lead to slow or blocked drains, frequently slow drains or severe blockages indicate a larger issue in the pipe. With an in-depth sewer camera inspection, our experienced team can identify the cause and perform the ideal sewer line repair and replacement in Los Angeles, CA and the surrounding areas.
- Roots – Tree roots are the biggest cause of broken and backed up sewer lines. While trees enhance any property, roots seek out the moisture rich nutrient found in sewer lines. They can enter through even small cracks, and once inside do major damage including breaking the line causing frequent backups.
- Heavy Grease and Sludge Buildup – Poorly maintained drains and heavy use lines can become damaged from hard scale buildup in the pipe. As organic material sits in the line, it can stick to the inside of the pipe and slowly close off drain flow. Scale buildup can also weaken the pipe leading to cracks and breaks or allow roots easy access to the line.
- Breaks and Deterioration – Aging lines will eventually deteriorate leading to backups from missing or collapsed sections. Roots can also cause broken lines, as well as general wear and tear or natural shifting of the earth.
Sewer Line Repair
Main sewer line repairs can be performed by routine and professional snaking for minor clogs, hydro jetting for roots or heavy buildup, and with epoxy pipelining.
Professional sewer snaking is typically the first step in diagnosing and repairing a blocked main sewer drain. However, if our drain experts encounter a hard spot, pull back roots, or suspect damage, we will recommend a sewer camera inspection to view the line. With a sewer camera inspection, we can determine next steps in the repair process.
Sewer Line Replacement
When aggressive root intrusion has broken a sewer line, or if there are large missing sections, holes or collapsed pipes, the pipe will need to be replaced.
The traditional method of sewer line replacement is through excavation of the sewer pipe and replacing it with a new ABS sewer pipe. For small breaks, replacement is often the most cost effective for sections that are underneath the home or easily accessible earth.
If the broken line is under concrete, the entire line is damaged, or if you want to save expensive landscaping, then pipe bursting is a great alternative.
Pipe bursting simultaneously breaks up the old damaged line while replacing it with a new High Density Polyethylene pipe (HDPE). Pipe bursting has many benefits, and does not require full trenching, removing the damaged line and can be completed in half the time of traditional replacement.
