Sewer Line Point Repair in Duluth, MN

When a sewer line is generally in good condition but has one or two isolated defects, a trenchless point repair is often the most cost-effective solution.

After locating the exact defect with the camera and locator system, our technicians install an epoxy repair patch using an inflatable packer. The patch is positioned precisely over the damaged area and inflated against the pipe wall while the epoxy cures.

This method allows us to repair specific defects with minimal excavation and minimal disruption to the property. When multiple repairs are needed throughout the line, a full sewer liner is often a better long-term investment.

How it works
  • Camera and locator system identifies the exact failure point
  • Inflatable packer positions the epoxy patch precisely over the damage
  • Patch is inflated against the pipe wall while epoxy cures
  • Minimal excavation and minimal disruption to the property
  • When multiple failures exist, full lining is often a better fit

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

What is a sewer line point repair?

A point repair fixes a single specific failure location in an otherwise sound sewer line. An epoxy-saturated liner is installed at the exact problem spot and cured in place, creating a new pipe section within the existing pipe. No trench, no full replacement.

When is point repair the right choice?

When the camera shows a localized failure, for example a separated PVC joint, a single cracked section, or a small root intrusion point, and the rest of the line is in good condition.

How much does sewer line point repair cost in Duluth, MN?

Point repair starts at $3,500 or more depending on the location and depth of the failure. It is typically the most cost-effective option when only a short section of the line has failed.

How long does point repair take?

Most point repairs are completed in a few hours on the same day as the camera inspection.

Is point repair a permanent fix?

Yes. The epoxy liner creates a permanent repair at the failure location with the same durability as full CIPP lining.

I would call them to get the job done. I highly recommend them. Had my sewer line replaced. Everything went smoothly. Loved working with this crew/company. They made an ugly situation beautiful once again.

Contour was very accommodating with all the home owners insurance issues I had to sort out. They repaired my main sewer pipe (had several cracks in it) with a 50 year warranty liner. Contour's quote was half of ASP as they found a closer access point to the front of the house and inspected all my home pipes determining they were fine and did not need lining. They save people a lot of money by only lining the sq foot of pipes that need it. The crew were very polite and professional. Would definitely recommend and hire them in the future for other services.

Contour Inc. Was able to fix my sewer in a very timely manner so we could sell our house. They dug it up even in February! Very nice to deal with them.

From my initial conversation with Jason to my sewerlining appoint with Troy and his crew, Contour was 5 stars across the board. Everyone I spoke to was professional, knowledgeable, and patient throughout the process. They made it easy in addition to quoting a reasonable price. I would highly recommend anyone in the market for a sewerlining to consider their services.

Contour came out and was willing to work with us on a solution that would fix a leak in a very difficult water main leak. They worked quickly, professionally, and cleanly.

They were able to complete the work faster than expected, and did a great job. We really appreciate their flexibility and ability to get the job done!

Contour is the best! Everyone treats you like an equal human and they are super knowledgeable at what they do. Brian and Co. were kind and honest from the start and very responsive. Everything was done very well and efficiently. They even came back to check on the project and touch up the blacktop they needed to patch in the alley after the job was completed. (Sewer line repair) Really appreciate you! I look forward to working with you again soon, just hopefully on an elective project and not an emergency. ;)

This is a very professional company. Not only did they actually return my request for a quote, they did it rapidly. The inspection was very thorough and was easily done. The quote was very fair, and the installation was amazing! The day of install we made room for their work, and when they left, it was cleaner than when we moved all our stuff! The workers communicated with us during the install, there was never a question about anything. Work was professional, and the out come is a sewar line I won't have to worry about again!

Thanks Contour!
