Sewer Line Replacement Drain Repair

The typical pipe found in most homes that are at least 60 years old is going to be cast iron. Just as anything else, cast iron also has a life expectancy. After 30 years the cast iron line starts to accumulate rust build-up, reducing the diameter of the pipe and creating blockages. Using the proper equipment the old cast iron pipe can be rehabilitated.

The Picote machine is a high-speed rotary chain knocker machine that cuts and descales the lines taking out all of the rust with a variety of head attachments. In most cases, the scale or rust that the machine takes off will restore the pipe to its original size.

Sewer rehabilitation is one of the many options that IG sewer and drain cleaning services offer. Using the high-speed rotary chain knocker machine/ Picote and the Jetter, these two machines in conjunction are the best way to bring back your sewer to flow properly like new. All the scale and rust taken off by the picote will be flushed out with the high-pressure water jet. Video inspection of the sewer line goes hand and hand. Without the Video, we can not see nor tell how much more we have to clean the line.
