Trenchless Technology Services in Ashburn, VA

How Trenchless Technology Works

Trenchless technology from AllTech Services, Inc. is interned to get around the biggest problem facing a sewer line repair or sewer line replacement: getting to the pertinent length of pipe. Trenchless technology is designed to get around having to dig up the entire pipe: a costly, time–consuming, and inefficient means of solving the issue. Trenchless sewer repair entails a pair of holes dug on either side of the pipe, with video cameras and other equipment lowered down to look at the problem directly. From there, replacement pieces of a new pipe can be sent down the holes as well, fitted into place and sealed remotely to solve the problem from above–ground instead of going below it.

Sewer Line Repairs Are a Snap

Trenchless sewer line repairs here in Ashburn work first by getting a good look at the problem area via a tiny video camera. Once the issue is clarified, the technician can send a corrective piece down the holes to cover the affected pipe. Many times, it is essentially a rubber balloon: pulled into place and then inflated to seal shut the breach. Sometimes, it can be more in–depth: using an actually metal piece of something similar which can be fitted to the hole with an adherent. Whatever the solution, a pipe relining perform with trenchless technology is just as solid as a more traditional excavation and repair job, conducted in a fraction of the time and with far less cost to boot.
