Trenchless Sewer Line Repair Near Brea, California
Trenchless Sewer Line Repair Near Brea, California
Fix the pipe — without wrecking the property.
Trenchless methods let us replace or rehabilitate a failing sewer with minimal surface disruption. After we camera-inspect and locate the problem, we’ll recommend the best method for your line, soil, slope, and access.
Trenchless Methods We Use
Pipe Bursting (Replacement)
- Breaks the old pipe while pulling in a brand-new sewer line behind it
- Ideal when the pipe is collapsed, severely offset, or undersized
- Great for long runs under driveways, patios, and mature landscaping
CIPP Lining (Cured-In-Place Pipe / Rehabilitation)
- Installs a seamless epoxy liner inside the existing pipe
- Best for cracks, minor offsets, and moderate root intrusion
- Restores flow and seals joints without full replacement
We’ll price both (when both are feasible) and explain pros/cons for your property.
Signs You Might Need Trenchless Repair
- Multiple fixtures gurgle or back up at the same time
- Sewer odors indoors or near the yard cleanout
- Recurring clogs even after professional clearing
- Green/soggy patches or sinkholes along the sewer route
- Older clay, cast iron, or Orangeburg line with visible defects on camera
Our Trenchless Repair Process
- Camera inspection & locating — document defects, depth, and route
- Plan & permit — produce a clear scope and pull required permits
- Access & prep — small launch/receive pits or cleanout access
- Execute — pipe bursting or CIPP lining to spec
- Verification — post-repair camera video to confirm success
- Backfill & tidy — restore small access points and clean the workspace
- Closeout — code sign-off where required + warranty details
You’ll see what failed, where it was, and proof of the finished repair.

Trenchless Sewer Repair FAQs
What’s the difference between pipe bursting and CIPP lining?
Bursting replaces the old pipe with a new one by pulling it through and fracturing the original. CIPP installs a cured liner inside the existing pipe, creating a smooth, jointless interior.
How long does a trenchless job take?
Many residential projects are completed in one day, depending on length, depth, and access.
Will you provide a camera video?
Yes — we can show before/after footage and provide copies upon request.
What pipe sizes can you do?
Most residential trenchless work covers 3″–6″ lines. We’ll confirm your size during inspection.
Do you handle permits and inspections?
Yes. We follow California plumbing code and coordinate city inspections where required.
Will my yard be torn up?
Only small access pits are needed in most cases, instead of long open trenches — greatly reducing restoration costs.
