How Deep Are Residential Water, Sewer & Gas Lines Buried?
We are very experienced in handling the excavation work that involves digging up existing water and sewer lines and performing the essential repairs to the damaged pipe sections or replacing the entire pipeline all together if need be in a professional and efficient manner. Depending on the region of the country and the severity of the damage dictates how small or large this project can be. In the colder climates, much like Ohio, sewer systems are buried anywhere from 4 to even 18 feet underground for example. A number of factors involved for the depth are mandated by climate, depth of connecting infrastructure, as well as the local plumbing codes. Deep sewer and water lines require sophisticated and large excavation equipment that might include backhoes, mini excavators or other heavy duty machinery.
Underground Water Pipe Leaks & Other Problems
Underground plumbing problems have a number of examples that include the following:
– Roots in sewer line: Tree or shrub roots growth can completely invaded the sewer line causing voids in the piping.
– Poor pipe quality: Existing pipes that were installed with a low-grade will quickly deteriorate or corrode.
– Leaking joints: Sewage will flow into surrounding soil when the seals between pipe sections have broken.
– Corrosion: Over time, the pipes will corrode, causing the pipe’s integrity to become compromised and cause problems.
– Damaged pipes: Broken, cracked, or collapsed pipes are a problem that is fairly common, especially in older homes.
– Obstructions: Restricting water flow is a problem when blockage caused by a large foreign clog the pipes.
– Bellied pipe: This occurs when a section of the pipe sank because of poor ground or soil conditions.
