Expert Excavation for Water, Sewer, and Main Line Repairs

When a water line or main sewer line breaks, you need an experienced excavation crew you can trust. These critical pipes are often large and buried deep underground, making them difficult to access without the proper equipment and training. Attempting to fix these issues without a professional plumber can lead to more costly damage and unnecessary stress.

At 1-Tom-Plumber Lakeland, our excavation team specializes in locating, repairing, and replacing broken water lines, main lines, and sewer lines quickly and efficiently throughout Lakeland and surrounding Polk County communities, including Winter Haven, Bartow, Auburndale, and Mulberry.

We begin every job with a high-tech sewer camera inspection to accurately identify the problem area. Once located, our skilled operator uses a mini-excavator to dig a precise trench around the damaged pipe, minimizing disruption to your yard or property.

Depending on the severity of the issue, the pipe may be repaired, relined, or completely replaced. Whether it’s a cracked sewer pipe, corroded water line, or misaligned main line section, our team has the expertise and specialized equipment to handle the job safely and correctly the first time.

When underground plumbing problems arise, fast action matters. Make sure you hire a local plumber with an experienced excavation crew and the right tools to protect your home or business from further damage and expensive future repairs.

Water Line

For those of us in the plumbing business, there are two types of underground pipes: water lines and main lines.

Water lines are what they sound like: they are pipes (or lines) that supply fresh water to your home or commercial property. There are different types of repairs for a broken water line, from pipe lining to spot repairs to partial or complete repairs. Before a repair or replacement is made, we strongly encourage you to have your pipes cleaned thoroughly for the best short- and long-term results.

A water line can break for many reasons, including:

  • Water pressure changes
  • Ground settling
  • Corrosion from soils
  • Tree roots
  • Frozen temperatures

No matter how your water line breaks, the plumbers you choose should have trench digging and underground water line repair experience, as well as the proper equipment — from video equipment to mini-excavators — to handle a large job such as this.

The second type of underground pipe that we deal with is a main line, which is also commonly referred to as your sewer line. It’s the line that goes from your building (home or business) to your septic tank or city sewers.

A broken main line is a serious problem. In addition to the smell and sewage that will seep or flood into your property, the problem can back up into your residence and cause extreme water damage. This problem needs to be dealt with as quickly as possible.

As with water lines, there are different types of repairs that can be made: from pipe lining to spot repairs to partial or complete repair and replacement. Just as with water line repairs, we strongly recommend that you allow your plumber to clean your sewer line thoroughly for the best results.

A main line can break for these and many other reasons:

  • Water pressure changes
  • Ground settling
  • Corrosion from soils
  • Tree roots
  • Frozen temperatures

No matter how your main sewer line breaks, the plumbers you choose should have trench digging and underground main line repair and replacement experience. They also need experience using the proper equipment — from video equipment to mini-excavators — to handle a large job such as this.
