Using a trenchless water line replacement method can save you time, money, and headaches.
No homeowner looks forward to having to replace their main water line. Replacing your main water line is an expense that is usually not expected and can be intrusive on your property, such as concrete, driveway, sidewalks, and landscaping. However, using a trenchless water line replacement method can save you time, money, and headaches. We also have the latest technology to locate old waterlines underground and other utilities that may be nearby.
Advantages of a Trenchless Water Line Replacement
Fast and Convenient
Sometimes, traditional waterline replacement means digging a trench from the property line connection all the way to where the pipe enters the house. This can mean cutting across sidewalks, driveways, and expensive landscaping beds, not to mention large bushes, trees, and underground utilities. It also adds to the time required to complete the job.
Cost-Effective
Another advantage of trenchless methods is that they allow you to go underneath all of these obstacles, saving time and money.
Minimal Property Damage
Not having to redo your landscaping and/or driveway and sidewalk is also a bonus of trenchless. When you dig a trench past large established trees, root systems may become compromised and can cause future damage to the tree.
Possible to Access Hard-to-Reach Areas
Some trenchless methods include hooking the new pipe to the end of the old pipe and using a cable and a machine to pull the old line out and the new line in behind it. Other methods include using a torpedo/missile (a steel rod driven by compressed air) shot through the ground from one hole to another. No matter how we attack a trenchless water line replacement, make no mistake: There will be some excavating, but usually minimal.
