Trenchless pipe repair can be used on any type of underground utility line such as a sewer pipe, water or gas line. It is most commonly used on sewer line repair or replacement and falls under either pipe bursting or pipe relining. Most people assume that because you are not digging with a backhoe or other machine, this will be a less expensive method, however that is not the case. When you factor in the cost of the equipment for these methods along with the advantages the homeowner will get such as having a sewer line installed without ripping out the landscape shrubs, grass and trees to not removing an omni-stone or concrete driveway, it is definitely the way to go.
A sewer camera or TV camera is a live video camera that is pushed, pulled or driven on a small tractor down the sewer line while the signal is sent up the cable to a monitor that is viewed by the operator. Cameras can be black & white or color, one not really being better than the other. Most cameras have the ability to record the inspection on a videotape or DVD. A camera can be a very useful tool to determine the cause of a problem backup. If you are having a backup every 6 months at the same distance from the house, which happens to be under the old tree, there is no need to spend money to look at all the tree roots, you should spend that money towards fixing the problem.
