Understanding the Distinct Benefits of Pipe Bursting

When it’s time to replace a deteriorating pipe for a homeowner or business, you have two primary options. One involves the traditional, labor-intensive process of trench digging with the use of heavy machinery. The other, known as pipe bursting, offers a more efficient and less disruptive alternative that quickly restores service.

Here’s a closer look at why Pow-R Mole Trenchless Solutions’ pipe bursting equipment stands out from the rest.

Minimal Disruption

Pipe bursting eliminates the need for extensive excavation. This means your clients can continue their daily activities with minimal interference. There’s no need to arrange for concrete or asphalt removal, tree uprooting, or additional services. The equipment is deployed through an existing plumbing access point, such as a sewer line clean-out, making the process smoother and less invasive.

Simpler Process

Our pipe bursting materials help streamline the pipe replacement process, reducing the number of steps involved. The same tool that bursts the old pipe also installs the new pipe in its place. This multifunctional capability not only saves time but also enhances productivity. As a result, utility services are restored more quickly. Pipe bursting is effective on a variety of materials, including cast iron and clay pipes.

Address Multiple Issues

With our pipe bursting supplies, you can tackle numerous common problems with water, gas, and sewer pipes. You can effectively handle issues caused by tree root intrusion, which can push pipes apart and cause severe blockages. You can also work around corrosion from hard water, improper flushing practices, and the natural wear and tear of cast iron. This method is ideal for pipes with significant damage, such as offsets, large fractures, and multiple patches, which are unsuitable for patching or relining.
