What is trenchless sewer replacement?

Trenchless sewer replacement uses pipe bursting to break apart the existing damaged sewer line while simultaneously pulling a new pipe into place, creating a full replacement without extensive digging.

How is pipe bursting different from trenchless sewer repair?

Trenchless repair reinforces the existing pipe using a liner, while pipe bursting completely replaces the old pipe with a new one. Pipe bursting is used when the existing pipe is too damaged for lining.

When is pipe bursting the best option?

Pipe bursting is ideal for sewer lines that are collapsed, severely deteriorated, misaligned, or structurally unsound where repair or lining would not provide a reliable long-term solution.

Does trenchless sewer replacement require digging?

Pipe bursting typically requires small access points rather than full trench excavation, which helps minimize disruption to landscaping, concrete, and interior spaces.

Is the new sewer pipe durable?

Yes. The new pipe installed during pipe bursting is seamless, corrosion-resistant, and designed to provide long-term reliability and improved flow capacity.

How long does trenchless sewer replacement usually take?

Many trenchless sewer replacements can be completed in one to two days, depending on pipe length, access points, and site conditions.

Great service. I called them about capping a gas line, a non-urgent request, and they showed up the same day. I will use them again in the future.

I needed a Glendale plumber after my landscapers messed up my sewer and gas lines. Found Drip Too Hard Plumbing online and loved how easy their site was to use for a free estimate. Erik (the owner) and Jon showed up fast, gave an honest quote, and didn’t pressure me at all. They even wrote off the sewer line inspection cost in the repair. Super clean and professional work — they handled both the emergency sewer line repair in Glendale and gas line installation & repair same day. If you need Glendale plumbing, these are the guys to call!

I’m in La Cañada Flintridge and called Drip Too Hard Plumbing during an emergency when my old water heater went out. They came from Glendale the same morning, installed a new tankless system with a recirculation pump, and even added a whole-home water softener to fix my hard-water issues. The setup was spotless, the pricing was fair, and the techs were incredibly professional. It’s rare to find a plumbing company this modern and reliable — they’ve officially become my favorite new Glendale plumbers!
