Expert Sewer Line Repair for Burst, Leaking, Damaged and Tree Root Infested Pipes – Drain Master Plumbers
A blocked or backed-up sewer line can be a nightmare, especially when caused by tree roots infiltrating the pipes. While major root invasion may require professional assistance, introducing copper sulfate can prevent minor root problems from turning into major issues.
Sewer lines that are solid and sealed are less susceptible to tree roots, but even a small crack or fissure can allow roots to invade, grow, and cause significant damage. The roots can collect solid waste, clogging the flow of water and leading to slow flushing and backups. As the roots continue to grow, they can also increase in length and width, completely blocking the sewer line.
At Drain Master Plumbers, we offer trenchless technology for sewer line repair, effectively destroying the damaged sewer line and replacing it with a new one, without the need for excavating your yard. Trust us to effectively and efficiently solve your tree root infestation problems.
Understanding Sanitary Sewers – The Underground System for Transporting Sewage and Industrial Waste.
A sanitary sewer, also known as a foul sewer or covered sewer, is an underground system designed to transport sewage and industrial wastewater from homes and commercial buildings to treatment or disposal facilities. Unlike open sewers, the sanitary system is closed off to limit interaction between waste and the surrounding landscape.
The system of sewers is referred to as sewerage. Sanitary sewers are different from combined sewers, which also handle surface runoff. In the past, open sewers, consisting of gutters and urban streambeds, were commonly used worldwide. However, developed countries have made significant efforts to cover these open sewers and convert them to closed systems using materials such as cast iron, steel, or concrete pipes, masonry, and concrete arches. Today, open sewers are not used in developed countries, but they are still prevalent in many developing countries.
