Fixing Chattanooga’s Most Common Sewer Line Issues

Cracked and Leaky Pipe Repairs

A cracked or leaking sewer pipe can lead to soil contamination or wastewater seeping into unwanted areas. Our sewer contractors in Chattanooga, TN will find these problem areas first using advanced sewer camera inspections. Once located, we offer durable solutions like pipe relining, which creates a strong pipe within the existing structure, or traditional sewer repair methods for severely damaged pipes.

Tree Root Intrusion Removal and Prevention

Tree roots naturally seek out moisture. This makes your sewer lines one of their prime targets. These roots can infiltrate through tiny cracks, causing clogs or even rupturing the pipes. Using hydro jetting, we remove existing root blockages without damaging the surrounding area. For long-term prevention, we offer root-resistant pipe installations and barrier treatments.

Sewer Backup Cleanup and Repair

Backups can happen when blockages or damage prevent wastewater from flowing properly, forcing it back into your home. Rooter-Man’s sewer repair experts quickly clear the blockages using methods like hydro jetting to break through tough clogs. After clearing the mess, we inspect the system to address any hidden damage.

Drainage and Pipe Corrosion Solutions

Older pipes often fall victim to corrosion, especially in Chattanooga homes with aging infrastructure. Corroded pipes become brittle and prone to leaks. For this, our sewer line repair Chattanooga contractors offer solutions like pipe bursting, where we replace the old line by threading a durable new pipe through the damaged one.

Sewer Joint and Seal Repairs

Damaged seals and leaking joints can lead to water leakage and even structural erosion over time. Rooter-Man repairs these joints with advanced seals to ensure they stay watertight for years.

Methods We Use for Repairing and Replacing Sewer Lines

Conventional/Traditional Method

For situations that need direct access to a sewer line, we use the traditional method of carefully excavating a trench to expose the damaged pipe. While this method is more labor-intensive, it’s often the best solution for severe issues like completely collapsed pipes or grave misalignments. Using heavy-duty backhoes and excavation tools, Rooter-Man can repair and replace any line in your plumbing system.

Pipe Relining

Pipe relining, also known as cured-in-place pipe, involves inserting a flexible tube coated with resin into the damaged sewer line pipe and then inflating it. The resin hardens and creates a pipe within a pipe. Pipe relining will reduce your sewer line diameter by a quarter of an inch, but this will not affect its capacity to move waste through it. We use this method for repairing cracks, leaks, and minor joint issues.

Pipe Bursting

Pipe bursting upgrades your sewer line by breaking apart the old one while installing a new pipe. We use a hydraulic system to pull a brand-new pipe through the existing damaged one. This method is suitable when you want to minimize damage to the area where the damaged pipe is located, such as underneath a home, building floor, driveways, roads, and parking lots.

Trenchless Method

As much as possible, this is the method we use if the issue doesn’t require tearing up your lawn or driveway. By accessing sewer lines through small entry points, we repair or replace sewer pipes with minimal disturbance to your property.
