For residents and business owners in Minneapolis and St. Paul, sewer pipe replacements are a major project—but with modern trenchless technologies, the process has become faster, cleaner, and less disruptive. M&B Servicesprovides expert trenchless pipe lining and pipe bursting solutions, allowing for complete sewer replacements without the mess and expense of traditional digging.
Why Choose Trenchless Sewer Solutions?
Trenchless sewer repair methods eliminate the need for extensive excavation. Instead of tearing up your yard or driveway, we repair or replace the sewer pipes from within, leaving your property intact.
Benefits of trenchless technology include:
- Minimal disruption to your landscaping, driveway, or property.
- Faster project completion compared to traditional excavation.
- Long-lasting results with durable materials.
- Cost-effective solutions for both residential and commercial properties.
Trenchless Pipe Lining (CIPP)
Pipe lining is ideal for sewer pipes that are structurally sound but need replacement or reinforcement. Using CIPP (cured-in-place pipe) technology, M&B Services can create a brand-new pipe inside your existing line.
How the Process Works:
- Inspection and Cleaning: Pipes are cleaned and inspected to determine suitability.
- Tube Preparation: A felt tube is cut to fit the section of pipe being replaced.
- Insertion and Curing: The epoxy-coated tube is pushed through the pipe using specialized machinery, then inflated and steam-cured to harden.
- Finished Product: The new pipe is durable and can last up to 50 years with proper maintenance.
Pipe lining is ideal for long-term durability without the disruption of excavation.
Pipe Bursting
When pipes are severely damaged or collapsed, pipe bursting is an effective trenchless replacement method.
How Pipe Bursting Works:
- A drill or bursting head is inserted into the damaged pipe.
- The head breaks the old pipe into small fragments, pushing them into the surrounding soil.
- A new pipe is simultaneously pulled into place to replace the old section.
- The new line is sealed to the existing pipes, leaving a fully functional sewer system.
Pipe bursting is a reliable method to replace entire sewer lines without digging trenches, saving time and preserving your property.
Signs You Need Sewer Pipe Repair or Replacement
No sewer line lasts forever. Contact M&B Services if you notice:
- Water pooling above buried sewer lines.
- Persistent sewer odors.
- Foundation or slab damage.
- Frequent drainage or sewage backups.
Early detection can prevent major damage and reduce repair costs.
Trenchless vs. Traditional Replacement
While trenchless methods are often preferred, traditional sewer replacement is still an option when pipes are beyond repair. Traditional methods involve excavating the damaged section and replacing it entirely. Trenchless solutions, however, offer a cleaner, faster, and less disruptive alternative for many projects.
