What to Expect During Pipe Bursting

If you’ve been experiencing wastewater backups, slow drainage, and blocked toilets, there might be an issue with your drains. Sewer lines are bound to succumb to wear and tear, prompting the need for repair or replacement services. The good news is that Sewer Pro offers the least invasive but most efficient solutions, such as trenchless pipe bursting in Gahanna, OH.

Here’s what you can expect out of a reputable pipe bursting contractor such as our team when you choose pipe bursting.

What Is Pipe Bursting?

Pipe bursting utilizes trenchless technology, meaning that there’s no need to dig up your property and there won’t be any damage to your yard, lawn, or driveway. That way, you can go about your business without any interruptions. We use top-grade pipe bursting systems to restore damaged pipes.

The Pipe Bursting Process

Our team usually completes the pipe bursting sewer line replacement process in three distinct phases. Each step ensures the successful installation of the new sewer system.

Setup

The first thing we’ll do as we arrive on-site is to find an ideal place to set our equipment up. We’re careful not to damage your property. That’s why we’d need your help in determining which locations around your property are safe to set up camp on so we can get started on performing pipe bursting services.

The Process

Once we’ve set up our equipment and have located the access point, our technicians will then launch a pipe bursting head down the damaged pipe. This pipe bursting head rotates and breaks up the affected pipe, making way for the new pipe. We use the cutting and bursting rods to break the initial pipe and disperse the parts. We then install the expander to lead the new line into the ground and replace the space left by the old pipe.

The process won’t take long, and can be completed in as little as a day. Once the new sewer pipe is in place, our job is complete, and we pack up the remaining equipment and clean up any mess we might have made before leaving your property.
