Professional Damaged Drain Repairs
A clogged drain or blocked pipe can be highly inconvenient at the best of times. It also generally requires urgent attention for the benefit of you and your home. But what happens once you’ve exhausted all your own methods to attempt to unclog the blockage, with little to no success?
When this happens, it might be time to get in touch with Mr Emergency our drainage and excavation services. We’re here to care for your property with long term drain excavation solutions.
Drain excavation, also known as drainage excavation or sewer line excavation, is a process that requires the digging of trenches on your property in order to expose and gain access to the stormwater and/or sewer pipes connected to your home.
Drain excavations are widely considered to be a last resort option when all other potential methods of unblocking a clogged drain – everything from using a plunger to pipe relining – have been explored without success. The drainage dig-up process can be a messy and inconvenient one but may provide you with the outcome you need when all other options cannot.
Mr Emergency can take care of all your necessary drainage and excavation services so your drains and pipes can flow freely once again. We’re available 24/7 for emergency work or general maintenance. You can count on our experts to always provide upfront, fixed-price quotes for your job so there are no nasty surprises in the bill.
Why You Need Drain Excavation Services?
Most plumbers will suggest drainage excavation when there is a serious blockage that cannot be removed by a hydrojet or drain snake. Typically, your pipes will be beyond repair due to an infestation by tree roots or loss of structural integrity.
At Mr Emergency we always exhaust all options. At the end of the day, it’s all about what is easiest for you, the customer. After a site assessment, our drain cleaning expert will use a CCTV drain camera to try and diagnose the problem straight off the bat. As a final step, drain excavation allows the affected pipes, or sections of the pipes, to be dug up and replaced.
Our team is equipped with the appropriate knowledge, skills and equipment for a stress-free drain excavation. Your home will be treated with respect and we will do all that is possible to preserve landscaping and gardens. And you can trust that our focus is on delivering the best long-term outcome for your home.
Telltale Signs You Need Drainage Excavation
Excavation of your drainage system is something we typically lean towards as a last resort measure – sometimes it is the only option. However, there are some identifiable symptoms of severe drain blockage that indicate it may be the best course of action. They include:
Sinkholes Forming in the Yard
If you notice sinkholes forming in your backyard, it could be a sign of sewage leaking from broken pipes. The moisture from the sewage gets trapped in the soil and forms sinkholes, in much the same way as you hear about sinkholes forming in city and suburban streets. If you notice them, it’s time to call Mr Emergency.
Your Yard is Growing Better in Patches
Have you noticed that your lawn is strangely growing significantly better in some areas and less so in others? It could be a sign of sewage leaking from damaged pipes. Though raw sewage boasts strong fertilisation properties, this might be one situation where a lush lawn may be a cause for concern rather than something to enjoy.
Your House Starts Smelling Like a Sewer
If you’re detecting a sewer-like smell coming from your toilet or your drains, yet they appear to be completely clean, it may indicate that your pipes are severely backed up. In this case, they may need urgent attention from a licensed plumber, and a sewer line excavation may be necessary.
