What is Pipe Bursting? - Sewer Replacement Plumbing Tutorial

[@patricksnavely5850]

Proud to say that i have done this and relined sewer laterals by blowing in an epoxy soaked "sock" Coolest job I've ever had.

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

Yeah lining is cool too. We'll get into lining in the future.

[@LearnPlumbing]

For learning purposes can you elaborate on the issue you found at the end.

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

Sometimes things go sideways in unintended ways. Lol.

[@jetsetjoey]

@@SmedleyPlumbing*, okay HOW did things go sideways?!? WTH happened?!?*

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

@@jetsetjoey lol. We had a fusion joint come apart because we didn't have the right lever tool to squeeze the piping together while fusing.

I''m looking to build a tiny house on a new plot of land. This looks like a viable and affordable way to install a new sewer system and connect it to the cities' sewer line.

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

This is a great sewer replacement method. This method needs a host pipe in the ground in order to work. New construction will need to be bored or traditionally excavated.

[@paulmartin4722]

I used to pipe burst water mains in the uk 25 years ago,the rigs we used where quiet a bit bigger than yours.

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

Yeah those bigger rigs are awesome.

[@ItsBeeks]

I've no idea what I'm looking at or how anything works but it really makes me want to learn and become a plumber in my 40's. Is this a union job? Is it more on the residential side? Is this advanced plumbing or does everyone know how to do this after their first year? I have so many questions.

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

Follow along and learn what we do!

[@armandolevario4758]

Can pipe bursting be used on main lines throughout home under the foundation and out to the front yard or only outside ? Please help and answer. I appreciate it in advance and thank you ! Also, I’m in AZ so I don’t think your located out here at all but how much would you charge to get on the phone for some advice and professional info on my situation in my home please and thanks !

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

Shallow depths under concrete and areas where two pipes intersect make using this method indoors in a residential application very unlikely.

[@evisceratedoffspring5078]

So how did you guys end up fixing the issue at the end?

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

We got creative 😉

[@mrlukenukem88]

Didn’t catch what happened at the end

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

Catastrophic failure that's what happened!

[@adventurebegins1]

So,your pipe became disconnected where it was heat welded. Major f*** up!

[@roberthernandez1985]

THey snapped the pipe when bursting I would be bringing out my lining equipment at that point to fix that gap lol

[@dioniciogamez6175]

How much does something like this cost?

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

All depends on how long, how deep, and what we have to dig the access holes around. We've done them as cheap as $3k and as expensive as $40k

[@martyvanord984]

Just WOW!!!

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

Pretty cool huh?!

[@ramelband]

What happened at the end?

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

We may never know.....

[@josevelazquez2004]

What is the price for something like this?

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

We answer that here! kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmXRmWxjiZ6XsJo

[@habibich7261]

How can I get an employment contract I am a professional plumber

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

Thanks!

[@tuanas458]

Who thought it was a good idea to put concrete over the sewer lines that deep! I wouldve kepts the top sections of the dirt soft soil. Putting in a sewer line for that house looks like a nightmare

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

Concrete just crumbles over time underground

[@adrianvillanueva3200]

Why don’t you use Tric tool equipment it’s way better then that thing

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

Check out later videos! This video was filmed while we were awaiting delivery of the Tric unit.

[@eulaliorodriguez5325]

This is equipment.

[@SmedleyPlumbing]

Correct. And with this equipment, we can replace sewers faster while minimizing our impact on the customers yard.
