Trenchless sewer services are a smarter, less invasive way to repair or replace your sewer lines. Instead of tearing up your yard, driveway, or landscaping, this method gets the job done with minimal disruption. It saves you time, reduces mess, and often costs less than traditional excavation-based solutions.
This innovative method uses hydraulic machinery to pull new pipe material through existing damaged lines. Two small access points replace the need for extensive trenching. Your trees, gardens, and hardscaping remain intact while advanced equipment handles the heavy work underground.
The process starts with a detailed video inspection to pinpoint the exact damage locations. High-definition cameras reveal pipe conditions, allowing technicians to choose between two main repair methods: pipe lining or pipe bursting.
Pipe lining introduces an epoxy-saturated liner into the damaged pipe. Once cured, this creates a seamless, joint-free pipe within the old one. The new pipe resists root intrusion and corrosion better than traditional materials. Its smooth interior improves flow capacity by up to 40%.
Pipe bursting breaks apart the old pipe while simultaneously pulling through new HDPE (high-density polyethylene) pipe. This technique works well for severely damaged lines or when you need an increased pipe diameter. HDPE pipes last 50-100 years and withstand ground movement without cracking.
Important factors to consider: not all pipes qualify for trenchless methods. Severely collapsed lines or pipes with multiple sharp bends might require traditional excavation. A professional inspection determines the best approach for your situation. Remember to obtain the necessary permits before work begins. Many municipalities require specific documentation for underground utility work.

I highly recommend Vanderveer Plumbing. And I do not call anyone else to bid the plumbing for my construction projects...They are on time, on point, and their prices are competitive. You won't be disappointed.
Excellent service from a team of friendly and knowledgeable experts. They were able to help us find the simplest (and least expensive) solutions to what seemed like a major plumbing issue. I'm grateful to have gotten a hold of them when i did!
Bill and Codey have done a few jobs for me. They are always on time and communicate everything very well. From start to finish I know what's going on and how they tackle the issues. Its hard to find a good plumber but to find a great one is even harder. Five stars for all 6 jobs they have done for me...
Great work installing new tankless water heater. Very informative, professional and friendly. Also very fair in their pricing.
Family owned business with excellent work ethics. Great communication throughout the entire process. Quote was accurate and able to add on items work with us. Thank you!
I can’t say enough good things about this company! They were on time and communicated well and did an excellent job! One item on the inspection report they were able to fix just by flushing the drain with water! Saving me the charge for that repair! Great people!
