Home/Residential And Commercial Sewer Services
All plumbing services can be classified as either residential or commercial services. When it comes to the drainage and sewer sector, you can still classify all the services into these two broad categories. Residential or home sewer services are provided to homeowners or private residents in Washington DC. Commercial sewer services are provided to business owners, institutions, corporations, government organizations, municipal bodies, and many other commercial and industrial clients in the state. This is just a broad classification of all sewer services but we are now going to look at the various types of sewer services provided in the state.
Sewer Line Installation, Repair & Replacement
Sewer line installation services are provided by almost all general plumbers in Washington DC. You should consult the plumber directly to inquire whether he offers these kinds of services. This is because sewer services are quite complicated and intricate and hence some plumbers are not able to provide them. New sewer line installations are required when building a new house. The plumber uses either the traditional excavation method or trenchless sewer technology like directional boring to install new sewer lines. Sewer line repairs and replacement use trenchless technology to repair damaged underground sewer lines using cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining or to replace the severely damaged pipes using pipe bursting.
Sewer Camera Inspection
Sewer camera inspection services are provided by established plumbers to diagnose various sewer line issues. The plumber installs a waterproof video camera inside the sewer line and then moves it remotely to inspect the condition of the pipe. Underground sewer camera inspections are used to identify sewer line clogs, leaks, and for maintenance purposes.
Trenchless Sewer Services
We have already mentioned the various sewer line technologies used for installing, repairing, and replacing damaged underground sewer lines. Most DC sewer line companies use CIPP lining for sectional point repairs, lateral pipe lining, and manhole to manhole lining. Pipe bursting and directional boring technologies are used to replace and install new sewer lines respectively.
Drain Cleaning Services
Sewer line plumbers in DC provide drain cleaning services to residential and commercial clients in the state. You can hire a sewer line plumber to unclog and clear your drains. You can also hire home to clean out your drains once or twice a year. Most plumbers use sewer snaking or rodding or hydro jetting technologies to unclog and clean drains.
