Broken Sewer Pipe Repair — Delaware County, PA
Broken Sewer Pipe Repair in Delaware County, PA
Camera Inspection, Trenchless Repair & Replacement for Cracked or Broken Sewer Lines
Broken sewer pipes in Delaware County range from minor cracks at clay tile joints to fully shattered sections from root pressure or ground movement. Cracks allow root infiltration, groundwater infiltration, and sewage exfiltration into the soil — all of which get worse over time without repair. A broken pipe does not heal. The crack widens, roots grow in, joints offset further, and eventually the pipe collapses. Camera inspection shows exactly what you are dealing with before you spend a dollar on repair.

Types of Broken Sewer Pipes We Repair
- Cracked Clay Tile — The most common pipe material in pre-1960 Delaware County homes. Cracks from ground movement and root pressure. Lined with CIPP for permanent repair without digging.
- Offset Pipe Joints — Joints that have shifted out of alignment from soil settling. Camera shows the step in the pipe. Requires spot lining or section replacement depending on severity.
- Root-Fractured Pipe — Root pressure from inside cracks the pipe outward. Hydro jet removes the roots; CIPP lining seals the fractures.
- Corroded Cast Iron — Cast iron drain lines corrode from hydrogen sulfide gas produced by sewage. Pinholes and sections of missing pipe wall. CIPP lining or replacement.
- Crushed Pipe — From vehicle traffic over shallow laterals or structural loading over old pipe. Requires pipe bursting or open-cut replacement.
Trenchless First, Open-Cut When Necessary
We default to trenchless repair — CIPP lining or pipe bursting — because it preserves your landscaping, driveway, and hardscape. We excavate only when the pipe geometry prevents trenchless access or when the damage is in a location where open-cut is faster and less expensive. We tell you which applies to your situation based on what the camera shows, not what generates a bigger invoice.
