Call (833) 529-2616Sewer Line Failures We See Around Hegins
Calls for trenchless sewer line repair in Hegins, PA usually begin with one of the problems below, and the camera decides which fix fits.

Roots in the line
Cutting roots clears the pipe for a while; a liner removes the joints they get through, so they stay out.

Breaks and shifted joints
Ground movement opens joints and cracks rigid pipe. Most of it can be lined; a badly offset joint may be burst.

Worn-out cast iron and Orangeburg
Cast iron scales and rots from inside, and Orangeburg flattens. Cast iron is often lined; Orangeburg is usually burst.
Toilets gurgle or bubble
Air pushed back through the trap when other fixtures drain means the line is partly blocked downstream.
Backup in the lowest drain
Sewage rising in a floor drain, shower or basement fixture is the line telling you it cannot carry the flow.
Sewer smell outside
A smell near the cleanout or over the yard can mean a cracked pipe venting gas into the soil.
Can't tell which one you have? Describe what the drains are doing, and the likely cause comes back on the call.

Line It or Burst It? Deciding in Hegins
Lining suits a pipe that still holds its shape: cracks, root entry, corrosion and small offsets. Bursting suits a pipe that is collapsed, flattened or too small, because it replaces the line rather than coating it.
Still unsure which way your line will go? Call (833) 529-2616 with the age of the house and what the drains are doing. You will hear what a camera inspection is likely to show before anyone comes out.
