Frequently Asked Questions - Timberline Plumbing's Trenchless Sewer Lining

1. What is trenchless sewer lining?

Trenchless sewer lining is an innovative method of repairing or replacing damaged sewer pipes without the need for extensive excavation. Instead of digging trenches, this technique involves the insertion of a durable liner into the existing pipe, creating a new, structurally sound interior.

2. How long does it take for sewer lining to be completed?

Sewer lining can be completed and ready to use in as little as 1 day. However, more challenging projects may take 2-3 days to ensure a thorough and precise installation.

3. How much does trenchless sewer lining cost?

4. Is the new liner as good as a new PVC pipe?

Yes, the new liner is a structural solution that stands up to the pressures applied in sewer systems. It provides a long-lasting and reliable alternative to traditional PVC pipes.

5. Can sewer lining be done in the winter?

Absolutely! Sewer lining can be completed at any time of the year, even in the midst of winter. Our team is equipped to handle installations regardless of the weather conditions.

6. Do you dig holes in the yard or basement during trenchless sewer lining?

No, we do not dig at all. Our trenchless method is truly non-invasive. We utilize existing access points both inside and outside your home to perform the installation without disrupting your yard or basement.

7. What if we don't have existing access points in our plumbing system?

Every home has access points, whether it's through a toilet, roof vent, cleanout, or an outside cleanout. If needed, we can identify and use these access points to perform the trenchless sewer lining installation.

8. Do I need to be home for the installation?

The choice is yours. Some customers prefer to observe the installation process, while others opt to leave for less hassle. Our team is flexible and accommodates your preferences, ensuring a hassle-free experience whether you choose to stay or go.
