No-Dig Trenchless HDPE Pipe Bursting Technology
Traditional open-cut sewer replacement requires digging extensive trenches across yards and driveways. Trenchless pipe bursting pulls a heavy steel bursting head through the old clay or cast iron pipe, fracturing the old line while pulling continuous high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe directly behind it.
This no-dig method preserves driveways, concrete walkways, and mature landscaping while installing a seamless, root-proof sewer mainline designed for 50+ years of service.
Benefits of Trenchless Pipe Bursting
- Preserves Hardscape & Lawns: Eliminates long open trenches across driveways, patios, and landscaping.
- Seamless HDPE Piping: Fused jointless pipe line resists root penetrations and ground movement.
- Fast Execution: Most trenchless pipe bursting projects are completed within 1 to 2 days.
- City Code Compliance: Fully approved by the City of San Bruno Building Division.
