Sewer Repair

The main purpose of a sewer is to efficiently channel wastewater while maintaining sanitation. There are a few things that most people don’t know about sewers. Most sewers are a series of drains made of concrete, metal, or clay. Sometimes these pipes can be damaged by things like tree roots, shifting dirt, or earthquakes, and damaged pipes can leak or even burst. Many of these pipes are probably made of a material called ABS. It has a typical life span of 15-20 years and once they get old they crack and start to leak. If a sewer pipe is near or under a foundation, it will crack where it passes through the dirt.

Sewer repair is particularly important for anyone who owns or manages an apartment complex. Sewer lines consist of multiple sections and must be replaced when one of these is damaged or breaks. This can happen from root damage, changes in the line’s elevation or supply pressure, or damage from overhead power lines to the sewer itself.
