When you need cracked pipe repair in Toronto, contact Anta Plumbing. With locations throughout Ontario, we respond quickly to emergencies and can get to you quickly. Cracked pipes occur as a result of rust on metal pipes or may result from vibrations for pipes located close to a pump or other equipment. Excess pressure, blockages, tree roots and other conditions can lead to a crack in your PVC pipe.

It’s important to repair cracked pipes as soon as possible. Leaks can wreak havoc on your home, causing damage to cabinets, floors, walls and ceilings. It can also lead to contaminated water. For leaks in your hot water system, you also pay for the additional energy required for the water you do not use. By checking your water meter on a regular basis, you notice an issue before it creates too much damage.

Pipe Material Impacts Likelihood of Cracks

Good quality sewer pipes last up to 100 years. However, older pipe systems made out of clay can become easily damaged. Metal and PVC pipes are also popular materials. Each material has its weaknesses and strengths.

When our plumber inspects your plumbing system, you will receive a recommendation to repair or replace the pipe. If the pipe needs to be replaced, we will suggest the most cost-effective material that makes the most sense for your property.

Causes of Sewer Pipe Cracks

Environmental factors also influence whether pipes are likely to crack or break. Here are some of the most common environmental factors to watch out for:

Materials such as clay break down over time, requiring professional crack repair for plumbing systems. Even metal and PVC pipes need to be replaced eventually. As a pipe ages, the material can crack, causing leaks and eventually breaking if not repaired or replaced on time.
Tree roots are attracted by water sources. They work their way through tiny cracks in the line. Eventually, they expand the cracks and can block water flow.

Environmental factors such as earthquakes can shift the earth and stress pipes, causing them to crack, collapse or burst.
