Call Roger's Plumbing for Trenchless Sewer Line Repair

A failing sewer line is stressful enough without worrying about what the repair will do to your yard. Trenchless methods let our plumbers access the damaged pipe through small entry points rather than digging a trench across your property. The result is a faster repair, less disruption, and lower restoration costs when the job is done.

Roger's Plumbing has been serving homeowners in Leander, Cedar Park, Round Rock, and throughout the Greater Austin area since 1994. We use camera inspections to see exactly what's happening inside your sewer line, then recommend the trenchless approach that fits your situation. You'll know what we find, what it takes to fix it, and what the cost will be before any work begins.

When Trenchless Sewer Line Repair Makes Sense

Trenchless repair isn't right for every situation, but when conditions allow, it saves homeowners time, money, and headaches. Roger's Plumbing uses camera inspections to determine whether trenchless methods will work for your sewer line. Here's when we typically recommend it.

Pipe Lining for Cracks and Joint Failures

If your sewer line has cracks, root intrusion at joints, or minor corrosion but the pipe structure is still intact, pipe lining is often the best solution. Homes in older Leander and Round Rock neighborhoods with clay or cast iron pipes that have developed joint failures are good candidates for this method.

Pipe Bursting for Collapsed or Severely Damaged Lines

When the existing pipe is too far gone for lining, pipe bursting lets us replace it without excavation. This works well for sewer lines that have collapsed, have multiple breaks, or have deteriorated beyond what lining can fix. The new pipe is seamless and resistant to root intrusion, which matters in Central Texas where tree roots aggressively seek out moisture.

Spot Repairs for Localized Damage

Sometimes the problem is limited to one section of the line. A single break, a localized root intrusion, or a joint that's separated can often be fixed with a targeted trenchless repair rather than replacing the entire run.

Minimal Yard and Landscape Disruption

Traditional sewer line repair means digging a trench from your house to the street. That tears up lawns, flower beds, driveways, sidewalks, and mature landscaping. Trenchless methods require only small access points at either end. For homeowners in established Austin-area neighborhoods who've invested in their landscaping, the difference is significant.

Faster Completion Than Traditional Excavation

Most trenchless sewer line repairs take one to two days, compared to three to five days or more for traditional dig-and-replace jobs. Less time means less disruption to your household.

Lower Total Cost When You Factor in Restoration

The repair itself may cost similar to traditional methods, but trenchless work eliminates the expense of restoring your yard afterward. No re-sodding, no replacing driveway sections, no replanting. When homeowners compare the full cost, trenchless often comes out ahead.

Happy Today Or You Don't Pay

At Roger's Plumbing, our "Happy Today Or You Don't Pay" promise isn't just a catchy phrase. It's how we do business. We care deeply about exceeding our clients' expectations and hold ourselves accountable to this standard through this guarantee.

If you are not happy with the trenchless sewer line repair service Roger's Plumbing gives you, we will stay until you are happy or simply don't pay us. Can you get fairer than that?

This commitment means you never have to worry about paying for work that doesn't meet your standards. Your satisfaction comes first, and we back that up with action.

When Traditional Excavation Is the Better Choice

Trenchless methods work in most situations, but not all. Some sewer line conditions require traditional excavation for a proper repair.

If your pipe has collapsed completely and the interior is blocked with debris, there may not be a clear path for pipe bursting equipment. If the line has multiple sharp bends, trenchless tools can't navigate them. If the pipe has bellied significantly, creating a low spot where waste collects, lining won't fix the slope problem. And if the sewer line runs under a structure or through an area that was already excavated poorly, traditional access may be the only option.

Roger's Plumbing uses camera inspections to assess your sewer line honestly. If trenchless repair will give you a lasting fix, we'll recommend it. If your situation calls for traditional excavation, we'll explain why and provide options. Our goal is the right repair for your home, not selling you on one method over another.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does trenchless sewer line repair cost?

Trenchless sewer line repair costs vary based on the length of pipe being repaired, the method used, and the condition of your existing line. While the repair itself may cost similar to traditional excavation, trenchless methods eliminate the expense of yard restoration afterward. To get accurate pricing, call Roger's Plumbing for a camera inspection. We'll assess your sewer line and provide upfront pricing before any work begins.

How long does trenchless sewer line repair take?

Most trenchless sewer line repairs take one to two days to complete. Pipe lining requires time for the epoxy to cure, usually several hours. Pipe bursting can often be completed in a single day. Traditional excavation typically takes three to five days or longer, plus additional time for yard restoration.

Is trenchless sewer line repair as durable as traditional replacement?

Yes. Pipe lining creates a seamless interior surface that's resistant to root intrusion and corrosion. Pipe bursting installs new high-density polyethylene pipe that can last 50 years or more. Both methods meet the same standards as traditional replacement and are backed by our 2-year warranty.

Can trenchless repair fix a collapsed sewer line?

It depends on the extent of the collapse. Pipe bursting can replace a collapsed line by breaking apart the old pipe and pulling new pipe through in its place. However, if the collapse is severe and debris is blocking the path completely, traditional excavation may be necessary to clear the way. Our camera inspection determines which approach will work for your situation.

Will trenchless repair work if I have tree roots in my sewer line?

In most cases, yes. Pipe lining seals the joints where roots typically enter, preventing future intrusion. Pipe bursting replaces the old pipe entirely with seamless material that roots can't penetrate. If roots have caused extensive damage throughout the line, we'll recommend the method that addresses the full scope of the problem.

How do you know if my sewer line is a candidate for trenchless repair?

We use a camera inspection to see inside your sewer line and assess its condition. The camera shows us cracks, root intrusion, joint failures, bellies, collapses, and the overall integrity of the pipe. Based on what we find, we'll recommend trenchless repair if it's appropriate or explain why traditional excavation makes more sense for your situation.

Do I need to be home during trenchless sewer line repair?

You don't need to be present for the entire repair, but we recommend being available at the start so your plumber can walk you through what they found on the camera inspection and explain the repair plan. We'll also want you there at the end to review the completed work and make sure you're satisfied before we leave.
