Repair methods for damaged drain and sewer pipe
The right repair depends on what the camera finds. A single cracked section or separated joint in an accessible yard line is often handled with a spot repair: excavate one small area, cut out the damaged pipe and couple in new pipe. A line with a long belly where water sits usually needs that section re-laid at the correct slope. When the pipe is badly deteriorated along much of its length, full replacement is the lasting option.
Under-slab drain problems are more involved. Depending on the location, a plumber may access the line through the floor, tunnel beneath the slab or reroute drainage. Ask to see the camera footage and the measured location of the defect, and discuss how floors and landscaping will be restored before work begins.
