When it comes to replacing a sewer line, homeowners have two primary options:
- Traditional Trenching: This method involves excavating the area above the sewer line to remove and replace the damaged pipe. While effective, it can be disruptive to landscaping and structures.
- Trenchless Methods: Less invasive techniques such as pipe bursting or pipe lining allow for the replacement or repair of pipes without extensive digging. These methods often result in quicker completion times and less disruption.
Consult with a plumbing professional to determine the most suitable approach for your specific situation.
