What Is Plumbing Excavation?

Plumbing excavation refers to moving or removing soil, dirt, or stone for plumbing installation or repair. Excavation can be a crucial component of various plumbing projects, including:

  • Sewer line repair: This service involves digging a trench to access the sewer line, removing the old pipe, and installing a new one to repair a broken or leaking sewer line.
  • Septic tank removal: Also known as decommissioning, this service involves closing and making a septic system inoperable. Excavation is needed to access the tank.
  • City sewer hookups: A city sewer hookup is a connection that links a home or building to a municipal sewer line. The connection is made by digging to install a sewer main line that runs from the property to the sewer line.
  • Water main repair: Water main repair is the process of fixing a water service line, which is usually due to a leak. This job usually involves digging a trench to expose the water line.

At Arrow Sewer & Drain, we are trained to perform excavation services for basic plumbing services along with complex jobs, such as emergency plumbing repairs, scheduled maintenance, and new construction work. Our technicians also use excavation techniques to install sump pumps for property owners to help with drainage.
