Proven Sewer Line Replacement Methods

When your sewer line is on its last legs, it is time to consider replacing it altogether to prevent costly problems down the road. Besides sewer repair services in Bellevue, WA, Sewer Solutions NW offers proven and cost-effective replacement options, depending on your needs. Here is a closer look:

Pipe Bursting

In certain scenarios where sewer pipe line repair is impossible, we use a non-invasive method called pipe bursting. This technique utilizes hydraulic power to push a bursting head through the damaged pipe.

The head breaks the pipe into small pieces and pushes them aside into the soil. Meanwhile, a new pipe is pulled into position. With just two small access points, pipe bursting can swiftly provide you with a new sewer line within hours.

Traditional Excavation

Traditional excavation, also known as open-cut or trenching, has been the standard method for sewer line replacement for many years. We usually recommend this method if your pipes are severely damaged, you have sub-par soil conditions, and tree roots are extending too far. This process involves digging a trench along the path of the existing sewer line, removing the old pipe, and replacing it with a new one.

If your sewer line is past its prime, turn to Sewer Solutions NW right away. We offer the best solutions to replace sewer line. We’ll first assess your pipes, determine underlying issues, and recommend the best approach.
