Scranton Sewer Authority prepares your Bristol sewer line for trenchless repair by thoroughly cleaning the interior. Roots, grease, and scale are removed with hydro jetting so the liner or burst head can do its job perfectly.
For CIPP lining, we pull a resin-saturated liner through the pipe and cure it in place with steam or UV light. For pipe bursting, we pull a new pipe through while simultaneously breaking the old one apart.
Our Bristol crew runs a final camera through the repaired line to confirm perfect installation. We show you the footage so you can see the smooth, jointless interior of your rehabilitated sewer pipe.

Honest reviews from property owners who chose Scranton Sewer Authority for their sewer and drain needs.
"Our kitchen drain had been slow for weeks. The technician used a camera to find a grease buildup about 30 feet down the line, then hydro jetted the whole thing. Drains faster than it has in years. Great service."

"We needed a full sewer line replacement from the house to the street. They gave us a detailed written estimate, started on time, and finished a day ahead of schedule. Quality work from a quality crew."
