So if you’re looking for professionals who can perform sewer repair in Johnson County, come to KC Flow Heroes. To learn more about our service options, read on below.
To Repair or to Replace (That Is the Question)
At KC Flow Heroes, we always put the needs of the customer first. Some sewer service technicians are too quick to recommend a total sewer line replacement.
But heroes don’t give up, and we won’t give up on your sewer line. But if your house was built before 1983, your sewer line is likely outdated. So the sooner you replace your line, the better. Sewer technology is better than ever, and when we update your system, we can minimize the risk of damage to your property.
Our experts take your needs into consideration, because we know how stressful plumbing concerns can be. When you work with KC Flow Heroes, you’re working with people who consider your preferences, your home, and your budget.
Your Sewer Line’s Arch Nemesis
Your sewer line does a lot of heavy lifting, so it should come as no surprise that it runs into some challenges along the way. Your sewer line has a whole rogues’ gallery of concerns to contend with. Wandering tree roots may burst through your sewer line, causing lasting damage.
The pipes themselves may become corroded, leading to a greater risk of cracks, leaks, and bursts. Corroded pipes can also be more susceptible to harsh temperatures.
If debris like mud, sticks, and leaves fill your sewer line, this can result in damage to your system. Depending on the severity of your sewer line damage, you may not notice immediately. So what are some of the common signs to look out for?
Keeping an Eye Out
Most often, sewer lines are located in either the walls of your building or deep beneath the ground. So unless you have x-ray vision, you may assume diagnosing damage is impossible. But you don’t have to be the world’s greatest detective to notice damage in your sewer line.
There are some key indicators to look out for when determining if you have sewer line damage. However, if you hear gurgling in the toilet or notice that your drains aren’t as effective as they used to be, this could be a sign that there’s something wrong with your sewer line.
Additionally, if you notice a strong pungent sewage smell, that’s an indicator there’s a problem with your sewer line (that, or the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are sneaking around).
Talking With the Experts
Before we visit your property for sewer repair in Johnson County, we want to hear from you. After all, how can we solve a problem if we don’t know there’s a problem in the first place?
If we had Superman’s enhanced senses, you could simply shout “KC Flow Heroes,” and we’d be over to your home faster than a speeding bullet. But like Batman and Iron Man, we don’t have superpowers, so giving our office a call is the best way to go.
When you reach out to our team, give us a quick rundown of any and every problem you’ve noticed. Afterward, we send an expert out to investigate your sewer line and determine if sewer repair is your best option.
An In-Person Inspection
After one of our expert plumbers arrives, you can breathe a little easier, because you’re in capable hands. We’ve worked on countless projects over the years, so we know exactly what to look for.
And like the Dark Knight, we’ve got a whole arsenal of gadgets to help us diagnose the problem. We can use a small camera to inspect your sewer lines to determine the specific cause and location of the damage.
Once we’ve gathered all the necessary information, we can formulate a strategy. This is more than a consultation. It’s a team up! So don’t hesitate to ask any questions throughout the process.
Pipe Up!
If we decide your line could benefit from sewer repair in Johnson County, we need to clean the pipes. And we don’t just clean out your pipes, we completely clear them of debris so they function like new!
There may be any number of foreign bodies clogging up your drains, from tree roots to dried mud, but in a business like ours, we’re not afraid to get our hands dirty.
Once we clear out your drain, the sewer line should function more normally, but the pipe cleaning process is only the first step for sewer repair in Johnson County.
Live and Let Line
After we’ve ensured that your sewer line is clear, the next step in the repair process is pipe lining. Even if your pipes are free of unwanted debris, the pipe walls may have sustained serious damage. To reinforce your pipes, we use cured-in-place pipe lining (CIPP).
During this process, we cut down a liner to match the exact size of your pipes. Then, we coat the entire liner with epoxy resin, taking special care to ensure complete coverage. Using a specialized CIPP device, we will then push the flexible liner through the sewer line, covering the entirety of your pipe walls.
After the liner is in place, we will shine a curing light over the epoxy, hardening it. This process essentially gives your pipes a super suit that can resist any further damage, and the best part? The CIPP results can last for years.
When there’s trouble, you know who to call!
Some leaks happen gradually, giving you the time you need to develop a response. But other leaks are sudden, constituting a serious emergency. And when there’s a sudden emergency, you don’t just want any old plumber—you want a hero!
If your sewer line suddenly sustains serious damage, don’t hesitate to call us and explain the situation. In the event of a plumbing emergency, we drop everything we’re doing and send a plumber to your home as soon as possible.
We may not have a Batmobile with a rocket-powered engine, but that doesn’t stop us from driving across town to stop your sewer system leak.
A Full-On Replacement
At KC Flow Heroes, we prioritize sewer repair in Johnson County. And though the CIPP process is incredibly effective at strengthening your sewer lines, there are some problems even CIPP can’t solve. In cases like these, we may recommend a total sewer line replacement.
While sewer line replacement is never our first choice for fixing your leaks, we still take steps to make the process more convenient for everyone.
With KC Flow Heroes, we won’t need to dig large trenches in your property. Thanks to the pipe bursting method, we can replace your pipes from the inside out.
Bursting Onto the Scene
Any good superhero knows that minimizing collateral damage is a necessity. After all, what’s the point in stopping the bad guy if the battle destroys the entire city along the way?
As plumbing heroes ourselves, we do everything we can to keep your property looking great during and after pipe bursting sewer replacement.
Using a specialized hydraulic machine, we pull the new pipe through the old one, bursting the damaged pipe as we secure the new one in place. In effect, this kills 2 birds with 1 stone. You get the new pipe in place, and destroy the old one at the same time.
