Recurring toilet clogs, slow drainage, or a backed-up floor drain—all indicate an underlying issue in your sewer lateral. It is not until the pros at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Edmonton have completed an inspection that they can confirm you need a sewer line repair. Edmonton has many beautiful historic residential and commercial buildings; they may be taken care of well on the outside, but the area to worry about is the plumbing.

What To Expect From Our Sewer Line Repairs, Edmonton

We understand that a broken sewer can be a daunting experience and that you might think about the worst-case scenario—namely, an excavation. Before you picture your landscaping all dug up, allow our professional plumbers in Edmonton to conduct a detailed plumbing inspection. There are actually various steps to consider before the initial sewer line repair. Edmonton homes remain safe and clean throughout the process with only minimal disruptions.

Video Camera Inspection

During a plumbing diagnosis and inspection, we use video inspection to identify the type of sewer line damage present. Attached to a flexible cable, the camera is fed through the sewer cleanout, travelling as far as it takes to the trouble spot. During the inspection, our professional plumber can determine your pipe’s material, age, and condition via video footage shown on a monitor. They’ll also be able to tell how much maintenance it has received in the past. A signal receiver allows our technician to follow the camera from the surface. This enables us to mark the area where your repairs are needed.

Sewer cameras are effective in locating clogs, including tree root intrusion.

Hydro Jetting

We might have located the clog, but, at the same time, detected a leak or another type of damage. But before the start of a sewer line repair, Edmonton plumbers will often complete some hydro jetting. You may be familiar with it when you hire Mr. Rooter Plumbing for drain cleaning services. Our HydroScrub® Jetting technology involves using high-pressure water jets to break through tough clogs and clear pipe walls from sludge, mineral deposits and other debris. Once we have a clean pipe after sewer cleaning and all the necessary markings of areas that need repair, our Edmonton sewer repair team may begin!

Sewer Line Repair Edmonton

There are various repair methods, of which trenchless sewer repair is still a mystery to many homeowners. But we are here to explain everything in detail.

The two most popular trenchless technology options for sewer line repair Edmonton plumbers use include:

Pipe Lining

This method was originally named “cured in place pipe” installation and involves the process of wrapping a fiberglass / resin liner around a rubber hose to feed it through the affected pipe and install it in the damaged area. Once this new sleeve cures in place, your sewer pipe’s original functions will be restored.

Pipe Bursting

Pipe bursting doesn’t require a trench, but it does require 2 smaller excavations, one in the basement and one at the property line.For this repair option, our experienced plumber digs two access holes that allow them to feed through a cable from one end to the other. Using hydraulic pressure, it breaks the old sewer as the new sewer pipe is dragged through the opening. Both ends are then connected back to the existing sewer pipes and everything is draining properly once again.

Pipe bursting is often recommended if your existing sewer pipe has suffered from several damages rather than just one. Plus, it doesn’t restrict the pipe’s diameter, which pipe lining does.

Traditional Method

When dealing with a collapsed or severely corroded sewer line, our plumbers will not be able to perform trenchless repairs. That’s when it is inevitably necessary that we complete an excavation service.

Whatever type of sewer line repair, Edmonton plumbers at Mr. Rooter Plumbing can do it efficiently and effectively.

Edmonton Sewer Repairs FAQs

  • Pipe lining or sleeving is the most common and cost-effective trenchless method used nowadays. It’s minimally invasive, requires no digging, and lasts for as long as 50 years. The cost, however, depends on where the exact damage is located and the linear footage of the replacement liner that we install. We won’t be able to determine that until our professional Edmonton plumbers have completed a plumbing diagnosis. Feel free to contact us to learn more about our upfront pricing system and cost guides.
