Sewer Line TidBits

It is the property owner's responsibility to maintain, or when necessary to repair or replace the defective sewer service line in Minneapolis, MN.

Some Different Types of Sewer Defects Are:

Cracked, offset, tree root intrusion, root mass or cluster, misaligned, shifted, separated, collapsed, punctured, pierced, hole, decay, rats, and more.

We offer spot sewer repairs that only fix what needs fixing.  "If it's not broken why fix it, right!"  We excavate on the sewer line at the location of the broken pipe and install new Schedule 40 PVC Pipe by tying onto the existing sewer pipe.

We also offer a CIPP Liner or Liner Push Patches also known as a sewer sleeve.   Cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining is a method of trenchless rehabilitation and restoration used in the repair of existing pipes.  CIPP lining uses a textile liner tube and a liquid resin.  CIPP lining is a jointless, seamless, pipe-within-a-pipe with the capability to rehabilitate pipes with many different diameters.   We service sewer lines that are 4" and 6".
