Pipe and Sewer Drain Replacement How To
How long does a residential sewer line last?
The answer depends on several factors, such as the location of the sewer line and if it has been maintained well over time. But usually a sewer line can last a family decades before it needs to be replaced.
While that may be reassuring for some homeowners who have recently purchased a new home, it can be nerve-wracking for those who know that a replacement is in their imminent future.
Homeowners often panic when they notice signs of a bad sewer line. That could be because they have heard the horror stories from their friends and neighbors about how expensive the process can be or how the company they hired left their yard in a mess after digging a trench.
But there is no need to worry about either of these common issues when you contact a professional plumber who specializes in trenchless sewer pipe replacement.
What is a Trenchless Sewer Line Replacement?
Trenchless sewer line replacement is a technique that has been around for over 15 years, yet there are many people who have never heard of this innovative way to repair your sewer lines.
With this method there is no need to dig a trench in your front yard and disrupt your landscaping. Instead, a solution known in the industry as CIPP (cured-in-place pipe), is either pulled into the damaged sewer pipe or inflated. This creates a new durable pipe inside the old damaged one.
Even if an inspection shows that you have large holes, rust damage, or other severe issues with your pipes, you can still use the trenchless method for an easy and hassle-free repair.

What Is Hydro Jetting?
Hydro Jetting (a.k.a. Hydro Scrubbing) is a process in which your sewer pipes are scoured by streams of high-pressure water shooting out of a hose at up to 3,500 psi. These high-pressure streams are strong enough to cut through and clear out any debris in your sewer lines.Pros and Cons of Trenchless Sewage Pipe Replacement

Earthquake Shut Off Valves In West Hollywood
Earthquake Gas Shut Off Valves Installation
Here in Southern California we live in Earthquake country. By code, all buildings are supposed to have automatic shut off valves that are triggered by an earthquake.
This customer in West Hollywood was selling this 16-unit building and their inspection requested that their gas system be updated to code to include the EQ valves. We installed 17 valves for them. During the process we had to gain access to all units in order to turn on pilot lights for wall heaters. Strapping is very important for an EQ valve so all valves had individual straps to meet code requirements.
We highly recommend that you look at your gas meter and see if you have one of these valves. In the event of an earthquake your may end up with a gas leak. In all the commotion you may not think about shutting your gas main down. The results could be worst than what the earthquake might do. Don’t risk it! Call Angel Plumbers today for a professional plumber.
Woodland Hills – Water Main Fixed
Angel Plumbers to the rescue. On Thursday our customer found himself in a bind when his water main was leaking on his hillside property. He took his phone and spoke to it “Angel Plumbers in Los Angeles” Our mobile site quickly was brought up into his screen with the convenient option to just “call us.” He touched the “call us” option and spoke to our office. We were dispatched to him immediately.
His old galvanized water supply line had finally given out. We dug and trenched the side of the property and replaced approximately 100ft of pipe for him. At the end of it all he was another happy customer.
I love it when a plan comes together.
Water Leaks – Repair and Save
Water Leak Repairs
If you are looking for a plumbing company to fix your water leak let me give you something to think about. Angel Plumbers does this every day. Here are two different examples of two water leaks for two of our regular customers with three story condominium complexes.
Copper piping is great and there is much more to be said about it as time goes by and we learn more about its benefits and downsides. This isn’t the article where I’m discussing that but soon I will write more about it for all to know.
Meanwhile lets just say that buildings that have copper piping exposed in the roof are asking for trouble. The sun and normal California weather will beat those pipes until they leak. Certainly we can fix your leak and we will recommend insulation for all those exposed pipes. You just have to be wiser and actually follow our recommendations. There are companies out there that are just doing work without regard for quality. That type of work is costing those customers more money.
Doing the work better today will save you inflated money tomorrow.
Don’t be penny wise and Pound foolish!
Water Leaks – Waste Money
Before
An insignificant leak like this one may be causing hundreds of gallons of water to be wasted. This condominium community noticed that his water main was leaking due to an old corroded galvanized pipe.
After
A simple leak that drips one drop every two seconds equals out to almost five gallons a day. That same drop is equal to over 130 gallons in a 30 day month and 1577 gallons of water wasted in one year.
Don’t take that small leak for granted
