FAQs
What innovative technologies do you use for pipe upgrades in Caryville?
We combine trenchless pipe bursting, cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining, and high-density PEX or HDPE piping to deliver long-lasting results. Electronic leak detection and in-line video scoping let us map your existing system without opening walls or digging up yards, so we can design a precision upgrade plan tailored to Caryville’s clay-rich soil and seasonal freeze/thaw cycles.
How does trenchless pipe replacement work and what are its benefits?
Trenchless pipe replacement requires only one or two small access holes. A bursting head is pulled through the old pipe, breaking it apart while simultaneously pulling in a new, seamless HDPE or PEX line. Benefits include minimal excavation, faster completion, reduced labor costs, no large trenches across driveways or lawns, and a new pipe rated for 50+ years of service.
How long does a typical pipe upgrade project take for a Caryville home?
For most single-family homes, a complete water or sewer pipe upgrade takes 1–2 days onsite. The first day is dedicated to video inspection, pipe cleaning, and installation; the second day, if needed, is for pressure testing and final cosmetic restoration. Larger properties or complex multi-branch systems may require 3–4 days, but we provide a detailed timeline after the initial assessment.
Will my landscaping and property be damaged during the upgrade?
Because we use trenchless and wall-insertion techniques, disruption is minimal. Small entry pits are carefully placed to avoid trees, patios, and irrigation lines, and we restore the area with matching soil and sod. Indoor access points are usually confined to existing utility closets, so cabinets, flooring, and drywall stay intact.
Are upgraded pipes more energy and water efficient?
Yes. New PEX/HDPE pipes have smoother interiors, reducing friction loss and allowing water heaters and pumps to operate more efficiently. Pressure-balanced fittings minimize the risk of leaks, and smart flow sensors that we can integrate alert you to abnormal usage in real time, helping Caryville homeowners cut water bills by up to 20% and extend appliance life.
What warranties and maintenance support do you provide after pipe upgrades?
We offer a 25-year manufacturer warranty on pipe materials and a 10-year workmanship guarantee. After installation, you receive a digital video record of the finished line, annual complimentary inspections for the first three years, and discounted maintenance plans that include flushing and recalibrating any smart monitoring devices installed during the upgrade.
