The cost of excavation depends on several factors, such as the length of the pipe to be replaced, the difficulty of access, and the type of material used for the new pipe. After an inspection, we can provide you with an accurate cost estimate.
Avoid problems
When your water pipes are damaged, clogged, or need replacement, professional excavation is essential to ensure a lasting repair that meets all standards. At PUM, excavation is one of the services offered by our plumbers. We intervene with precision and efficiency to minimize the impact on your property while guaranteeing quality work. Whether it’s for a leak, a new installation, or a drainage issue, we have the expertise and equipment necessary for a quick and safe solution.
Excavating a water pipe is often necessary when serious or persistent issues arise. However, PUM takes pride in avoiding heavy and costly excavation work by precisely identifying the problem through a camera inspection of the drains. This method allows our plumbers to locate leaks, blockages, or failures without unnecessary digging, which helps reduce the scope of the work and minimize the impact on your property.
Excavation by our plumbers becomes necessary in the following cases:
- Leaks that cannot be located otherwise
- Pipes damaged or corroded over time
- Tree roots infiltrating the pipes
- Drainage problems requiring pipe replacement
- Upgrading old pipes that no longer meet current standards (e.g., lead water pipes)
Our expert plumbers will assess each situation to provide you with the most effective solution while limiting the extent of excavation work.
When full excavation can be avoided, we perform targeted repairs to fix the damaged section of the pipe. We use efficient repair techniques and solutions that restore the functionality of your system without requiring extensive work.
We always begin with a camera inspection to assess the condition of your water pipes. This allows us to precisely locate the source of the problem, whether it’s a leak, blockage, or pipe deterioration, without the need to immediately begin excavation work.
