How Trenchless Pipe Replacement Works


Blue vehicle with the text "New Jersey's Trenchless Experts"

Repairing a sewer line is a big project, no matter how it’s handled. Over time, these pipes can break down for several reasons. From tree root infiltration to common clogging, a lot can go wrong for a sewer pipe.

Fortunately, Service Professionals can perform trenchless sewer line repair at your home. Our team has the tools and expertise to get your sewer line working like new. When we’re done, it will be as if nothing ever happened.

Here, we’ll discuss trenchless sewer line repair service and what you can expect when you hire us for the job.

Step 1: Sewer Line Video Inspection

First, our team needs to diagnose the problem with the sewer line. We use cameras to go down the drain, inspecting everything inside the pipe.

Common sewer pipe problems include:

  • Tree root infiltration
  • Metal pipe corrosion
  • Buildup of materials

Our cameras can see everything in the sewer pipe in high definition, giving us a perfect view of the issue. When we determine the cause of the problem, we can take the necessary action to fix it.

Step 2: Sewer Line Clearing

Next, we remove the inspection cameras and use a cleaning device that can easily scrub the walls and center of the pipe. We’ll run the device as far down the pipe as is necessary to dislodge any buildup, tree roots, or debris.

Once the materials are broken down, they’ll be ready to flow down the drain and into the sewer system or your septic tank.

Step 3: Sewer Line Hydro Jetting

Now that the materials are broken down, we’ll need to blast water down the drain to get them out of the way. We’ll use a hydro jetting mechanism to send a powerful stream of water down the drain, washing away the loosened materials.

Step 4: Sewer Line Relining

If your sewer pipe is broken down and damaged, it will need a new lining. Instead of digging up your property to replace the pipe, we can add a new lining to your current one.

We’ll use a special machine to carefully line your sewer pipe from start to finish. With this new lining, it will be like you had the whole pipe replaced.
