At The Gentlemen Pros, we provide professional excavation and pipe repair services for homeowners across Edmonton – whether it’s a main water line leak, a sewer backup, or collapsed pipes under the yard.
“Fantastic service. Conrad was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, professional and easy to work with. He clearly explained every aspect of what he was seeing on our hot water tank, what he felt needed to be replaced/fixed and what was still fully functional/safe. He took us through the Gentlemen Pros procedures and their guarantees, the warranty they provide on their work, and every step in the scope of work he was quoting. My wife and I felt comfortable having Conrad in our home from the moment he arrived, which is hard to put a price on. Thank you very much, Conrad!” Nathan B
Edmonton’s freeze-thaw cycle puts major stress on underground pipes. As soil expands and contracts throughout the year, it can shift, bend, or snap pipes – especially if they weren’t bedded properly during original construction. Add in high water tables, heavy clay soil, and the occasional rogue tree root, and you’ve got the perfect storm for pipe failure.
Our excavation crews are trained for Edmonton-specific terrain. We know which neighbourhoods have brittle pipe materials, low drainage grades, or unusually shallow service lines, and we come prepared for all of it.
Many pipe problems can be solved without digging. But when a pipe has collapsed, split, or is made of outdated materials like clay or orangeburg, excavation becomes the safest long-term fix.
We often recommend excavation when:
– A sewer line has fully caved in or cracked beyond repair
– Roots have invaded joints and caused severe blockages
– Trenchless patching has failed or won’t hold
– Your home needs a new water service line installed or replaced
– City code requires full exposure for tie-ins or upgrades
These symptoms may indicate that one of those problems listed above has started to happen underground. Don’t wait for the damage to become visible or irreversible. The sooner we inspect the system, the more options you’ll have.
We start every excavation job with a non-invasive camera inspection and detailed line tracing. Once we’ve mapped out the damage and ensured utility clearance, we dig a clean trench to expose the problem area.
Depending on your system’s layout, we may:
– Replace a damaged section of the pipe
– Rebuild the slope of a sagging line
– Add access points or cleanouts
– Fully replace and upgrade old piping
After repairs, we carefully backfill and compact the trench to reduce shifting and sinkage. If possible, we’ll restore your yard, paving, or sidewalk to its original condition – or better.
Underground pipe problems won’t fix themselves – and waiting too long can result in serious water damage, yard flooding, or sewage backups. Whether you know there’s a break or you just suspect one, we’re here to investigate, explain, and repair.
Contact The Gentlemen Pros in Edmonton to schedule your inspection. We’ll give you a clear diagnosis, expert recommendations, and safe, efficient repair – done right the first time.
