The Economic Perspective

Trenchless sewer repairs retain a number of advantages over traditional pipe repair methods, but none are as important as the effective savings presents with trenchless repair methods. Trenchless repair methods utilize fewer trained technicians, less manpower, and fewer items of specialized equipment, cutting down on the costs for the professional, and passing the savings down to our customers. In stark contrast to traditional pipe repair methods, trenchless sewer repairs can be relatively cheap for their longevity.

The Concerns of Timeliness

Trenchless sewer repairs retain another benefit over traditional pipe repairs in the sense that trenchless sewer repairs are far more timely. Trenchless sewer repairs can usually be completed within the span of a day, often from within the plumbing systems of your home or business. No extensive excavation work is required, and little obstruction to your home or work life is presented. It is for this reason that many customers prefer trenchless sewer repairs to traditional repair offerings.

Repairing your pipes is a crucial part of maintaining your residential or commercial property. At NuFlow Phoenix, we employ trenchless methods for an affordable way to repair your pipes and bring it to optimal condition. NuFlow technology is the cost-effective choice for providing our customers with upfront pricing, non-invasive repair, no extraneous costs, little to no downtime, and long-lasting solutions to your Valley pipe problems.

Upfront Pricing

Using the latest in camera and inspection technology, we can determine the exact source of the problem and find out where it’s coming from. With this, we’ll be able to know how to fix it without any guesswork, leading to an accurate diagnosis and pricing.

Non-Invasive Repair

Using NuFlow technology, we are able to repair sewer backups, constantly clogged drains, breaks in the drain, leaks, and root intrusion. Our technicians insert a liner that’s coated with a special epoxy resin to cure new pipe sections inside the old line, all without having to dig a long trench on your flooring, sidewalk, porch, driveway or yard.

No Extraneous Costs

The reason why traditional sewer repairs are expensive is because of the added labor costs and having to rent heavy machinery, not to mention the landscaping costs after the repair is completed. With NuFlow, you won’t have to experience massive disruption and days of digging. Your sewer lines will be restored within a day, and everything is done above the ground.

Little to No Downtime

The beauty of trenchless replacement and repair is that we only need a few hours to get your new pipe ready for use. Residential and commercial properties will be able to use their plumbing and get back to daily operations sooner than traditional methods. NuFlow’s cured-in-place-pipe (CIPP) repairs allow commercial buildings such as condos, apartments, production facilities, offices, and high-rise buildings to have their sewer system repaired with minimal disruption.

Long-Lasting Solution

Pipelining is the better alternative to traditional repiping, whether you’re repairing water lines or underground sewer lines. The new epoxy resin pipes are seamless, jointless, and aren’t as susceptible to common plumbing issues as traditional materials. NuFlow technology is durable and expected to last for 50 years or more, which means less trouble and service calls in the future.

You may never actually see scale buildup, but after years of use, your plumbing system can start to develop stubborn mineral deposits that can lead to clogs and other problematic issues. Scale, or mineral buildup caused by hard water, should be cleaned from your plumbing regularly. We typically recommend for property owners to clean their plumbing system at least once a year. However, this recommended period will vary from property to property and the level of use.

The hard part about cleaning scale and debris is that your entire plumbing system may be covered. This means that cleaning scale from your plumbing system will require a professional and the proper equipment.

Removing Scale Buildup

Scale buildup in your plumbing system can be problematic if not handled by a professional service team. Since water and waste will flow throughout your entire plumbing network, any home remedies may not be reaching the actual root of the problem.

Since you may not be sure if you’re reaching the source of the problem, we never recommend liquid cleaning solutions to clean scale and clogs. These chemicals may solve the problem temporarily, but they may be damaging your pipes more in the long run. If used too much, these chemicals will lead to premature corrosion that will weaken the integrity of your pipes.

Also, make sure to refrain from putting anything into your drains that may scratch at the inner lining of your pipes. This may lead to pinholes and small scratches that could lead to leaks in the future.

Your best bet for cleaning scale from your pipes is to call an experienced technician at NuFlow Phoenix. Thanks to our equipment and years of experience, we know how to do more than just remove scale from your plumbing. We can also perform a camera inspection that will ensure that the job was completed thoroughly and that your plumbing is running as smoothly as possible. If you have any scale buildup or clogs in your pipes, then contact us today at 480-508-6634 to see how we can help.
