Expert Sewer Line Repair and Replacement in the Portland Metro Area
Unexpected plumbing problems can be stressful, disruptive, and costly. From foul odors to water backing up in your drain lines, a damaged sewer pipe can impact your home or business and create a domino effect for the surrounding public sewer or private sewer system. At The Excavators, we understand the urgency of these issues and prioritize minimizing disruption to your daily routine while delivering lasting solutions across the Portland Metro Area.
Whether you’re dealing with tree root intrusion, shifting soil, or aging infrastructure, our team uses advanced equipment and thorough scope camera inspections to identify the problem and provide the most effective solution.
Methods of Sewer Line Replacement
The right sewer line replacement method depends on factors like your property’s soil, property line, sewer easement, and the location of the damaged pipe. Our team performs a comprehensive inspection using cameras to ensure the solution chosen is both efficient and cost-effective. Common excavation methods and trenchless technologies include:
- Pipe Bursting: Breaks the old sewer pipe while simultaneously pulling in a new pipe of the same or larger diameter, creating a durable replacement with minimal disruption.
- Pipe Lining: Inserts a flexible liner coated with resin into the damaged pipe. The liner is inflated and cured in place using UV light, creating a seamless, long-lasting pipe.
- Traditional Excavation: A conventional method of digging trenches to access and repair or replace damaged sections of drain lines. Ideal for extensive repairs or locations where trenchless solutions aren’t feasible.
- Vacuum Excavation (Hydro Excavation): Uses high-pressure water or air to break up soil, then removes it via vacuum suction, reducing landscape damage.
- Directional Drilling: Allows installation of underground sewer lines along a pre-planned path from the surface, perfect for new construction sewer line installation or areas with limited access.

Not every issue requires a full replacement. Our sewer line repair options address pipe damage, root intrusion, corrosion, or minor collapses. Depending on the severity, we utilize:
- Trenchless Sewer Repair options like pipe lining and pipe bursting to minimize property disruption.
