Your Drain Repair Specialists
Dealing with a clogged drain or a blocked pipe can be incredibly frustrating, and it often demands immediate attention to preserve the well-being of both you and your home. However, what do you do when you’ve exhausted all your DIY methods to clear the blockage and have achieved little to no success?
In such situations, it may be the right time to reach out to Mr Emergency Plumbing for our top-notch drainage and excavation services. Our mission is to provide effective, long-term solutions for drain excavation that will safeguard your property.
Drain excavation, alternatively known as drainage excavation or sewer line excavation, is a specialised process that involves excavating trenches on your property to expose and gain access to the stormwater and/or sewer pipes connected to your home.
Typically, drain excavations are considered a last resort option when all other potential methods of unclogging a drain have been explored, from using a plunger to pipe relining, and none have yielded satisfactory results. The process of digging up drainage can be messy and inconvenient, but it may be the only solution left when all other avenues have been exhausted.
At Mr Emergency Plumbing, we have you covered for all your drainage and excavation needs, ensuring that your drains and pipes can once again flow freely. Our services are available 24/7, whether you require emergency assistance or routine maintenance. Rest assured, our experts always provide transparent, fixed-price quotes for your project, so you won’t encounter any unpleasant surprises on your bill.
Why Do You Need a Drain Excavation?
When it comes to stubborn blockages that resist the efforts of hydrojets and drain snakes, most plumbers will eventually suggest drainage excavation as the ultimate solution. This step becomes necessary when your pipes have endured significant damage, whether it’s from invasive tree roots or a loss of structural integrity.
At Mr Emergency Plumbing, our commitment is to exhaust all possible avenues to provide you, the customer, with the most convenient and effective solution. Following a thorough site assessment, our drain cleaning expert uses advanced technology, such as a CCTV drain camera, to swiftly diagnose the issue. And as a last resort, we turn to drain excavation, a process that entails digging up and replacing the affected pipes or sections.
Rest assured, our team is well-equipped with the knowledge, skills, and state-of-the-art equipment required for a seamless drain excavation experience.
We take great care to respect your home, ensuring that your landscaping and gardens are preserved to the best extent possible. Our primary focus is always on delivering the optimal, long-term outcome for your home.
Tell-Tale Signs You Need Drainage Excavation
Drain excavation is a measure we typically resort to as a last-ditch effort, often becoming the only viable option.
However, certain unmistakable signs of severe drain blockages can signal that it’s the most prudent course of action. These signs include:
- Sinkholes emerging in your yard: The formation of sinkholes in your backyard could be a telltale sign of sewage leakage stemming from damaged pipes. When sewage moisture seeps into the soil, it can create sinkholes, resembling the sinkholes you may have heard of in city and suburban streets. If you observe such sinkholes, it’s crucial to contact Mr Emergency Plumbing promptly.
- Uneven growth in your yard: Have you noticed peculiar variations in your lawn’s growth, with some areas thriving while others struggle? This anomaly may signify sewage leakage caused by compromised pipes. While raw sewage possesses potent fertilising properties, an overly lush lawn in these circumstances may raise concerns rather than bring enjoyment.
- A sewer-like odour in your home: If your toilet or drains emit a foul sewer-like odour, even when they appear visibly clean, it could be an indicator of severe pipe blockages. In such cases, immediate attention from a licensed plumber is essential, and the possibility of sewer line excavation may need to be explored.
Understanding these warning signs can help you make informed decisions when it comes to drain excavation, ensuring the long-term health and functionality of your plumbing system.
