7 Benefits of Formadrain
(7) Benefits of Formadrain’s “No Dig” Technology:
1. Save money – without the Formadrain system a plumbing contractor will have to dig meaning added time and expense.
Here’s what typically happens for the pipe or drain repair:
First your lawn would get dug up (very often this includes bushes, flowers, etc.) and the sidewalk or possibly the driveway would be broken.
Next your sewer pipe would be removed and replaced with a new one (or the drain of pipe would be repaired if needed).
Finally, everything dug up or removed would have to be replaced and restored, including the sidewalk, (pouring cement, waiting for it to dry etc…) your lawn, flowers, bushes, and everything else.
Our system eliminates all this: There’s no digging at all!
2. Save time and stay in your home – no dig means that instead of days, a typical job takes only hours. In fact with trenchless Formadrain, unlike other methods, your line can be back in service the same day.
3. Safer for you and the environment – This system protects the environment. There is no destruction of landscaping, digging up lawns, removing shrubbery, breaking sidewalks etc.
Our system also means reduced liability for you and your family as there is little risk of cutting electrical power lines and other underground installations. Formadrain is safe for public and other utilities.
4. No toxic odors in your home - A major advantage in the Formadrain System is that there are no odors (chemicals used in pipe repairs usually smell very bad, and are frequently toxic). Our “No Dig” system is odorless and emits no toxic chemicals of any kind.
5. Completely renews damaged pipes - The Formadrain System actually renews your damaged sewer with a completely brand new pipe – right inside the old one. Our technology allows us to do this without significantly reducing the size of your pipe.
6. Your sewer will last for 50 years – Our special materials allow for a relatively thin and incredibly strong pipe.
7. Work any time of year – There are often restrictions with digging, especially in colder climates (like ours) where the ground is frozen and difficult to excavate.
This problem does not exist when using Formadrain’s “No Dig” Technology.
