Sewer excavation is the process of digging up a sewer line to access, repair or replace it. It’s an important process that’s necessary for certain situations when sewer problems arise. As a homeowner or business owner, it’s essential to understand the process of sewer excavation and when it’s necessary.
The first step in sewer excavation is to locate the problem. This is done using specialised equipment such as cameras and locators. Once the problem is identified, excavation can begin. The area around the sewer line is dug up to allow access to the problem area.
Sewer excavation can be necessary for a variety of reasons. One common reason is a blockage in the sewer line that can’t be cleared with traditional methods. Another reason is damage to the sewer line caused by roots or other factors. Sewer excavation is also necessary when the sewer line needs to be replaced due to age or wear and tear.
If you’re experiencing sewer problems, it’s important to act quickly. Delaying repairs can cause further damage to your sewer line and increase the cost of repairs. If you suspect that you need sewer excavation, it’s best to contact a professional to assess the situation.
