When Excavation Is Necessary

Most plumbing issues can be solved without digging.

But when pipes fail underground or are too damaged for spot repairs, excavation becomes the safest, most effective option.

You may need excavation if you’re dealing with:

• Main water line breaks causing pooling water or low pressure
• Sewer line backups or slow drains caused by collapsed or clogged pipes
• Severe pipe corrosion or root intrusion damaging underground lines
• Shifting soil or settling that caused pipes to crack or separate
• Old or failing pipes that no longer meet modern standards

If you’ve tried snaking or other repairs and the issue keeps coming back, it’s time to consider a long-term solution.
