Benefits of Sewer Pipe Boring

What does "Pipe Boring" even mean?

Pipe boring is a system of installing pipes underground which does not use trenches. Cables and conduits can also be installed this way. Instead of digging up a trench, a bore path is made by a drilling rig designed to create shallow arcs. The main reason for using boring method instead of trenches is to decrease the effect on the environment.

The biggest benefit of a trenchless sewer line repair is that sewer repair professionals can do a lot of work without having to re-route any traffic or have to dig a huge trench through your homes living space. It is also faster than traditional methods. Trenchless sewer repair can usually get the job done in one day rather than 2-3 days. Modern day technology has saved the Illinois plumbing industry. Replacing an old sewer used to be real messy and was a very time-consuming process and also would cost a fortune until this trenchless technology came around. Trenchless sewer repairs is a life saver for many new plumbing companies.

Plumbing Flow is Better

The amount of time a cured in place pipe lasts compared to PVC pipes or clay pipes is much longer. This is why almost all plumbers prefer trenchless sewer repair over the older options. It is also much more flexible and almost always flawless in draining. Other pipe materials can very easily clog and you need a lot of effort installing them in place.

Time Saver

Drainage back up is disgusting and old sewer systems are prone to sewer odors when backed up. These backed up older sewer systems can take several days to repair. It can also cost you more money if you cannot stay in your own home during these repairs and need to stay in a hotel, etc.
This is all avoidable with a trenchless sewer repair. Again, in only a few hours this can all be repaired compared to days like in the past.

Saves Your Lawn

The digging process for a trenchless sewer repair is a maximum of two small holes that can be easily patched back up when the job is done. The old method of pipe repairs required that your entire yard be dug up to replace the pipe in the trench. The homeowner would then have to pay extra money for lawn repairs after this process was completed.

Advanced Technology 

Multiple plumbing technicians are no longer needed to deal with these sewer damages. Trenchless sewer repair comes with advanced technology such as sewer line cameras and modern day digging tools. The results are much better for both the homeowner and the environment.

High Quality Materials

Trenchless sewer repair uses material that does not rust or crack. The flow of this material is smooth and it is very minimal that this material would ever experience any clogging or backing up. This cannot be said of the piping that was used in the older days.

Longer Life Expectancy

When a licensed plumber repairs a sewer system with the trenchless system it can take up to 50+ years  to require another repair. The older piping systems were an average of 10-15 years.

Environmentally Safe

The digging excavation that happens when replacing a sewer the old way would cause plants and trees in the yard to be cut down. Chances of getting sewage into the water supply system were extremely high back in the day.

The new trenchless technology has made it safer with only a few holes dug and no trees or plant removal is needed.

The only way to know if a trenchless sewer repair will work for your sewer problem is to contact a professional sewer replacement company that is qualified to repair damaged sewers using these new trenchless techniques

Suspicious Sewer Odors

It is common for sewer odor to reside within sewer systems. However, when a sewer pipe becomes full or the sewer changes its underground elevation, it can aggravate waste water. This aggravated waste water allows sewer odors to build up so heavily that it can escape to the outside world. Sewer odors can escape through several different places. Some of these places include, but are not limited to: Vents Floor drains Utility Sinks Connection points Openings in pipeline Maintenance covers Sewer odors do not typically enter homes because plumbing traps create a tight water seal at several points of entry. Sewer odors and gases are also exhausted outdoors through plumbing system vents. Sewer odors become a problem when the water that resides in your trap has evaporated. One trap that commonly dries out in homes is a floor drain. This occurs more often when the floor drain is located near a hot water heater or heating system. What are Sewer Odors?
