In Red Deer, underground pipe problems can turn into serious issues fast – especially when freezing temperatures or old infrastructure are involved. If you’re seeing signs of water damage, soggy lawns, or sewage backing up, it could mean a collapsed, cracked, or obstructed underground pipe.
At The Gentlemen Pros, we provide professional pipe repair and excavation services to restore your plumbing system back to prime effectiveness.
“We called and were addressed immediately (rather than waiting for a call back). They arrived quickly and were polite and professional. Not only did they do the job but went above and beyond to make sure all avenues were addressed before leaving. I would give a higher review if it were a possibility.” Tayra H
If you’re noticing these symptoms, it could be a sign that your sewer or water line is compromised. The sooner we can inspect and diagnose the issue, the more options you’ll have for resolving it before major damage occurs.
Homes in Red Deer, particularly those built before the 1980s, may still rely on clay, cast iron, or galvanized steel pipes. Over time, these materials can crack, corrode, or collapse entirely. In newer neighborhoods, PVC and HDPE plastic are more common, but they’re not immune to problems—especially if installed without proper slope or protection.
Here’s a breakdown of how different materials can fail:
Clay – Brittle and prone to cracking or root intrusion
Cast Iron – Corrodes from the inside, causing blockages
Galvanized Steel – Rusts over time, reducing flow and bursting under pressure
PVC – Susceptible to shifting and pressure damage if improperly buried
Polybutylene – Found in some homes built in the 80s/90s, known for unexpected failures
We assess both the problem area and the full line so you can make informed decisions about full or partial replacement.
From Glendale to Kentwood, and all the way out to Springbrook and Penhold, our excavation team has worked on both city sewer lines and rural water mains. We’re familiar with the local variable soil conditions, shifting frost lines, and neighborhood-specific plumbing layouts. We also know that many rural homes rely on private septic tanks and need excavation for tie-ins or full-line replacements. Wherever you’re located, we’ll assess your system with local expertise and a solutions-first mindset.
We don’t just fix the immediate problem – we help prevent it from coming back. If your underground plumbing is aging or has required more than one repair in recent years, we’ll give you clear, honest advice about replacement options, trenchless alternatives, and what’s worth investing in.
You’ll receive written estimates, clear timelines, and workmanship guarantees from a team that’s fully licensed, insured, and trained for excavation work here in Alberta.
