An issue with your sewer or water pipes should not be ignored, as it can lead to serious damage.

We know that the idea of having sewer or water line work can be very overwhelming and dreadful. You may have seen a neighbor or two have this type of work done in the past and their property looked a lot like a construction zone. Fortunately, we have a less-invasive solution to offer you: trenchless repairs.
Step 1 – Expose the Pipe
We digitally locate your pipe and surgically cut, excavate and expose the pipe that will be replaced. We will also do this on the other end of the pipe that is going to be changed.
Step 3 – Fusing
We thermally fuse the special SDR17 pipe together to create 1 continuous pipe without any seams or connections.
Step 4 – Connect Bursting Head
We compress a special bursting head on one of the ends of the newly created pipe.
Step 5 – The Replacement
We thread a steel rope through the existing pipe and place the new pipe into the first hole that was created.
Step 6 – Pull the New Pipe
We use a special hydraulic pump and pulley system to pull the new pipe through the old pipe from one hole to the other bursting the old pipe in the process. This new pipe is then connected to the existing sewer system – All done whilst minimizing the damage to your landscape and driveway!!!
What is the Traditional Repair Method?
Sewer line repair is typically performed using the “open cut” or “trench” method to gain access to the area surrounding the damaged portion of the pipe. A backhoe may be used to open and refill the work area.

Pipe Bursting
We make small access holes where the damaged pipe starts and ends. Using your broken sewer line as a guide, our hydraulic machine pulls full-sized replacement pipe through the old path and breaks up the damaged pipe at the same time. The new pipe is highly resistant to leaks and root intrusion, with a long life expectancy.
