Using Trenchless Methods To Repair Or Replace Septic Tank Pipes

Septic tank pipes can also experience significant damage like plumbing and sewer lines. Repairing or replacing them proves to be costly and disruptive, damaging landscapes and driveways. Trenchless pipe repair in Lansing, MI offers a non-invasive solution to fix damaged connective pipes to the septic tank without extensive digging.

Applying Trenchless Methods To Septic Pipe Repairs

Septic tank pipes can also deteriorate due to corrosion or internal issues. They can also become damaged from root intrusion, shifting soil, or external impacts.

For minor damage to pipes connecting to the septic system, trenchless pipe lining offers a non-disruptive repair option. This provides an effective and long-term solution. It installs durable liners that remain unaffected by the daily handling of sewage. There’s no need to dig around the drain fields or concrete structures above the pipes.

Pipe lining involves using access points and cleanouts to insert pipe-lining equipment. These liners have loaded resin or epoxy. They inflate to apply the material to the inner pipe surface and cure to create a new pipe inside. It seals off cracks, leaks, and other minor damage.

For severe pipe damage, trenchless pipe replacement is the best alternative to full excavation. Pipe lining can replace the whole pipe or through other variations such as pipe bursting, which breaks apart severely damaged pipes while pulling in the replacement pipe in place.

Preventing Further Complications With Trenchless Methods

Trenchless methods are the preferred ways to repair septic tank pipes. Using traditional excavation will destroy the drain field. This will require its reconstruction, on top of other renovation procedures on the septic tank area.

The extensive changes in excavation mean more costs and further delays. They will also put your septic tank system out of commission for days, or even a week or more.

Using trenchless methods also prevents environmental contamination. It stops backups and the leakage of sewage and wastewater and prevents repeated issues. They provide a smart approach to repairing septic tank pipes. The effectiveness and non-disruption also prove effective not just for plumbing and sewer lines.
