Sewer and Drain Repair in Crestview
If your drain line has been identified as damaged, broken and or “bellied”, sewer and drain cleaning is not an option. The most likely solution is to perform sewer and drain repair. Most compromised lines can be resolved by “spot repair”. Sewer and drain repair starts by excavating with handheld equipment. This may include tunneling if the damaged lines are beneath your foundation. The trenches and tunnels created by the excavation allows our plumbers access to perform repairs. Our goal when performing sewer and drain repair is to produce a quality product in a timely manner to minimize disruption to your drain system.
Sewer and Drain Replacement in Crestview
As an alternative to spot repair, full sewer and drain replacement may be a more cost-effective solution in the long run. Reoccurring sewer and drain repairs can become costly and the risk of sewer backup and flooding the interior of your homes is also a costly risk to consider.
There are two primary reasons for complete sewer and drain line replacement. Firstly, homes built 50 or more years ago likely have a wastewater system built with cast iron pipe. Cast-iron pipes oxidize and “flake” layer by layer eventually losing its integrity. Additionally, the regular flow of water along a narrow strip at the bottom of the pipe also contributes to the degradation of the line. The popular use of chemical drain cleaners in the 1970s & 1980s accelerated the degradation and is also considered a contributor to failing cast iron pipes. It is generally accepted within the plumbing industry that cast iron lines have a life expectancy of about 50-60 years. This range will vary depending on pipe size, usage and volume of chemical drain cleaners and detergents used in the past.
The second cause is the highly expansive soils found in Central Texas. The seasonal cycle of wet weather and dry weather causes soils to heave and contract annually. Additionally, the cycle of El Nino and El Nina also contributes to the heaving and contracting of soil in a 5-to-7-year cycle. Soils expanding and contracting with weather conditions cause wastewater lines to shift.
We understand the need to work quickly for you and your family. Our goal is to get your utilities up and running again. Starr is committed to more than fixing your plumbing needs!
