Drain & Pipe Repair.

New methods are being developed all of the time to repair pipes. We stay on top of the trends to bring that innovative technology to our customers.

Here are a few of the methods we use to repair underground pipes:

Revolutionary “Trenchless” technology that restores sewer pipes to “like new” condition. Our leading edge technology sprays an internal pipe coating on the inside of the pipe. It allows us to repair or replace your existing damaged sewer and septic lines WITHOUT excavating your driveway, flowerbeds, and sidewalls... or anything on your property! It can even repair plumbing that has suffered root damage; and our repairs can prevent repeat damage for as long as you own your home or property. [See video below for a demo of how it works.]

Pipe Re-lining. Similar to the "pipe-bursting" method below, we can line a damaged pipe with a thin epoxy that can repair holes, and prevent root damage for years to come. This system puts a new surface on the inside of your existing pipes. This means you don't have to deal with the costly digging and excavation of your property. Re-lining your pipe is environmentally friendly, can span over missing sections of pipe, and actually increases flow capacity!

Pipe Bursting. This method is a revolution in the pipe repair business! Only two holes need to be dug: one where the front of the new pipe is inserted and the other is where the machinery will pull the new pipe through. Then the unit will pull what’s known as a steel bursting head through old or deteriorating pipes or sewer lines. It breaks them up and pushes them aside all while pulling a replacement pipe along behind it into the same place as the old pipe. What’s left is your brand-new pipe. The new pipe is rated to last at least 50 years. How cool is that! Will wonders never cease? [See video below for a demo of how it works.]

Our main focus is on sewer and drain lines.

 

Because that’s usually the root of the issue.

When we find a clogged drain or toilet that can’t be cleared up by commercially available products, we know there may be a larger issue at play. And in our experience, it’s usually a sewer or drain line. Thus, the problem that you are experiencing is usually just the tip of the iceberg. That’s why we are laser-focused on sewer and drain lines. It’s the part that you can’t see that’s the real issue.

Drain, Pipe & Sewer Cleaning.

Did you know that routine cleaning and maintenance of sewer and drain lines is the key to ensuring that you never have the misfortune of experiencing a plumbing disaster? Now you do.

Here are a few of the methods we use to clean your sewer and drain lines:

Power Rooter. This method uses an industrial flexible auger that gets deep into pipes and cuts and rips clogs that can’t be removed using standard household methods, like plungers or dangerous chemicals.

High-Pressure Water Jetting. This method uses high-pressure water to blast hard debris off of the inner walls of pipes. This is ideal for cleaning grease and soap buildup, fine tree roots, sand, and sludge. We also utilize 180° hot water with this method to burn out roots, sludge, grease, and soap build up. It can clean almost every sewer line from 4 - 24 inches. [See diagram below to see the unique spraying angles of the high-tech Warthog nozzle we use.]

Flex Shaft Pipe Cleaning Knockers. This method utilizes powerful chain knockers that expand to the size of the pipe to quickly mill and de-scale the entire circumference. These are especially well known for cleaning rust and lime from cast iron, but may also be used on clay, concrete, and PUC pipes from 2-12 inches. [See video below for a demo of how it works.]

Turbo Spinning Wire Brushes. This method uses turbo spinning wire brushes, which can reach deep into drains and scrape away minerals naturally found in water that can build up on the walls of your pipes. [See video below for a demo of how it works.]

Video Camera Inspection. We utilize standard push cameras and robotic cameras that rotate 360° to see close-ups of the sidewalls. These can inspect anywhere from 2 to 36 inch pipes.
