FAQs
What is trenchless sewer main line replacement and how does it work?
Trenchless replacement is a modern technique that allows us to install a brand-new main sewer line without digging an open trench the full length of your yard. After inspecting the pipe with a video camera, we excavate one or two small access pits, insert a high-strength epoxy-coated liner or bursting head, and either pull a seamless pipe in place (pipe-bursting) or cure a resin-soaked liner inside the old pipe (CIPP). The new line meets current code, resists root intrusion, and carries the same life expectancy as a conventional PVC line—usually 50+ years.
What symptoms should I look for that suggest my Harrison home needs a main line replacement?
Frequent sewage backups, gurgling toilets, multiple slow drains at once, soggy spots in the yard, and foul odors near clean-outs are the most common red flags. In older Harrison neighborhoods, pipes made of clay, cast iron, or Orangeburg often fail after 40–70 years due to roots, corrosion, or collapse. If you notice any of these issues, a video inspection will confirm whether spot repairs or a full replacement is the most cost-effective solution.
How long does a trenchless replacement project typically take?
Most Harrison residential projects are completed in a single day. The initial camera inspection and utility locating take 1–2 hours. Actual pipe bursting or lining generally requires 4–6 hours, followed by curing time (for CIPP) or connection of new fittings. Traditional open-cut replacement can take 3–5 days, so trenchless options dramatically reduce downtime and restore full service much faster.
Will trenchless methods damage my lawn or landscaping?
Because we only need small entry and exit pits—often near the foundation and property line—90 % of your yard, driveway, and landscaping stays intact. We place protective mats around work areas, replace any removed sod, and backfill with native soil. Compared to conventional excavation, which leaves a long trench that can settle for years, trenchless replacement is far less disruptive and saves you hundreds or even thousands in landscape restoration costs.
What does trenchless sewer replacement cost in Harrison, and are financing options available?
Pricing depends on pipe diameter, length, depth, and the presence of junctions or bends, but most Harrison homes fall in the $95–$160 per linear foot range. A 50-foot run therefore lands between $4,750 and $8,000—often comparable to open-cut when you factor in restoration costs. We provide written, no-obligation estimates and offer 6- to 60-month financing plans with no pre-payment penalties to make the project affordable.
Do you offer warranties or guarantees on trenchless main line work?
Yes. Every trenchless replacement we perform carries a transferable 50-year material warranty from the pipe manufacturer and a 10-year workmanship guarantee from our company. We also provide a post-installation camera video and final inspection report for your records and for future home resale value.
