When Do You Need Water Line Excavation?
Many appliances rely on a properly installed water line to function correctly. There are numerous instances where a water line’s pipe may fail and require excavation, repair, or replacement. The most common reasons property owners call us at Mr. Mike’s Plumbing include the following: Flooding: Rusted pipe fittings, freezing temperatures, or tree root intrusion can cause leaks and flooding. Excavating and replacing the damaged part or pipe saves you money on repairs and wasted water.
Low Water Pressure: A water line with a small diameter or is clogged with debris may cause low water pressure. A new water line often solves this problem.
Drop in Pressure: If you ever notice a water faucet’s water pressure suddenly drops, chances are you have a leak that can later culminate into a flood.
If you’re dealing with any of these issues, call Mr. Mike’s Plumbing for efficient Calgary water excavation by a team of experienced plumbers.
How Water Line Excavation Works
We start by digging a trench several feet deep using backhoe loaders, sheers, hydraulic hammers, and more, inspecting the water line for possible issues like tree roots or excess water.
Once we complete the repair or pipe replacement, we will fill the trench with dirt and sod. We cut into the concrete and replace it with compacted stone or sand for concrete projects.
