Repair Small Problems Before They Get Big
Of course, it’s always best to catch the problem early, before a leak or backup can lead to extensive damage to the foundation of your home or property. Some of the early warning signs for sewer plumbing issues include:
- Pooling of water in the interior of your home or basement flooding
- Slow draining or a frequently stopped-up drain
- Foul odors or other unpleasant smells coming from your drains
- Outdoor flooding or pooling of water on or near the exterior of your home
- A drain that you can hear, also known as a gurgling drain
Big Repair Projects Require Big Machinery
We have the equipment to inspect and identify the source or sources of these issues. Solutions to sewer plumbing problems may include partial to full excavations. There is also the possibility of using a trenchless replacement system which would be less invasive to repair your broken pipes.

There are a number of techniques and strategies available for us to use in trenchless repairs.

Is Trenchless Sewer Line Repair Best For My Situation?
Are you concerned about whether trenchless sewer line or water line repair is the right choice for your repair project? Trenchless sewer line repair is used to correct a number of plumbing problems involving sewer and water line repairs. Trenchless sewer line repair is often used for the following situations.
- Cracked sewer or water pipes caused by movement in the ground or the house
- Underground plumbing pipes located beneath landscaping, homes, or apartment buildings
- Blocked pipes that have burst due to plant roots or household debris
- Improperly installed plumbing pipes that result in constant sewer backups or leaky lines
- Damaged water (or sewer) pipes damaged from winter freezing and thawing
- Installation of larger sewer and water lines to a house, apartment, condominium, or commercial building
Pipe Relining
Pipe relining is an option to replacing old worn out and broken main plumbing pipes. The materials used will restore the interior portion of your plumbing pipes without totally replacing them.
Here are two popular types of pipe relining systems that we use at Henco Plumbing to successfully repair broken plumbing pipes.
Pull In Place
If plumbing pipes have larger gaps and cracks, then the Pull In Place technique is the best lining method. The repair material is fixed into the pipe using heat, like steam. Next an epoxy-saturated liner pulled through the existing pipe to the area that requires repair. The Pull In Place method uses two access points: One access point to feed the liner and one to pull it through. During this procedure, air is forced into the pipe to open the sleeve then holds it tight against the inner walls of the pipe until the sleeve is fully dried.
Pipe Bursting
If plumbing pipes are severely damaged, or if the job requires replacing an entire pipe system, or if large sections of sewer pipe require repair, then the Pipe Bursting technique is the best lining method. To gain access to the broken pipe, the installation team dig two four foot square access pits at each end of the pipeline. Then they place what is known as a “bursting head” at the access point at one end of the pipe. The head is then drawn through the pipe using hydraulic power. While the bursting head travels through the old pipe it breaks the old pipe apart, pulling the new pipe behind it. The new plumbing pipe is constructed from a plastic that is very strong and will resist any intrusive action from tree or plant roots for up to 100 years.
