It took 3 visits/repairs to figure out what was wrong with my hot water heater but they waived the labor for the 3rd repair. I appreciated that.

We hired Riverway Plumbing to install a pressure reducing valve. Due to a previous plumber’s mistake it was a bit more involved than we originally thought but Evan went above and beyond to help us out. Thank You Evan.

Amazing! I ❤️ Riverway! Brandon came out on a Sunday and fixed the pipe that blew out. I was frantic because when the pipe broke it sprayed all over the bathroom. He really saved the day, he was professional, and super nice.

Riverway always does such great work. The capacitor went out on our air conditioner and they had someone out the same day and the repair took maybe 15 minutes. They’re always kind and courteous. We’ve had them out three times for various issues and we keep calling them because they take such good care of us and stand by their work.

Your Trenchless Sewer Repair Questions Answered

We know that underground plumbing issues can be stressful. To help you make an informed decision for your Bloomington home, we’ve answered the most common questions about no-dig pipe lining and sewer rehabilitation.

Most modern epoxy-resin liners are designed to be a permanent solution, with a life expectancy of 50 years or more. Once cured, the new pipe is structurally independent, resistant to chemical corrosion, and effectively immune to tree root intrusion. the leading cause of sewer failure in Monroe County.

While the specialized equipment for lining may have a higher upfront cost, it is often more affordable overall. By choosing a no-dig solution, you eliminate the massive secondary costs of restoring your landscaping, repaving driveways, or rebuilding porches that would otherwise be destroyed by heavy excavation equipment.

Pipe lining is ideal for pipes with cracks, root damage, or minor misalignments. However, if a sewer pipe has completely collapsed or has a severe "belly" (dip), traditional excavation or pipe bursting may be necessary. We perform a comprehensive sewer camera inspection first to ensure trenchless repair is the right fit for your specific issue.

Recurring drain backups, slow drains throughout the home, sewage odors, or evidence of tree root intrusion may indicate sewer line damage. A camera inspection can identify the condition of your pipes and determine whether trenchless repair is appropriate.

Many residential trenchless sewer repairs can be completed in a single day, depending on the length of the damaged pipe and the complexity of the repair. Larger or more complex projects may require additional time.
