Trenchless Sewer Repair & Installation in San Diego

Sewer line problems don’t always mean your yard has to be dug up. Trenchless sewer repair gives San Diego homeowners a smarter option: repairing or replacing underground pipes without tearing apart driveways, landscaping, or sidewalks. With methods like cured-in-place pipe lining, pipe bursting, and slip lining, repairs are completed faster, with less mess, and with results that last for decades.
Schedule OnlineWhat Is Trenchless Sewer Repair?
Trenchless sewer repair is a modern alternative to the old dig and replace approach. Instead of excavating the entire line, specialized tools and materials are used to restore or replace the pipe from the inside. The result is the same: reliable flow and a fully restored sewer line, but with far less disruption to your property.
Unlike traditional excavation, which can require heavy equipment, long project times, and extensive restoration afterward, trenchless methods often only need one or two small access points. That means your driveway, patio, or carefully designed landscaping stays intact. For homes in San Diego and throughout Southern California, where outdoor spaces are part of the lifestyle, protecting these features is just as important as fixing the sewer line itself.
Our Trenchless Methods
Anderson Plumbing, Heating & Air uses proven trenchless techniques that match your property’s specific needs.
Cured-In-Place Pipe Lining (CIPP)
A seamless resin liner is inserted into the existing pipe and cured to create a durable new surface inside. CIPP sewer lining seals cracks, blocks root intrusions, and extends the life of your system.
Pipe Bursting
In cases of severe damage, pipe bursting is the go-to solution. A bursting head is pulled through the old pipe, breaking it apart while pulling in a new high-density polyethylene (HDPE) line to replace it.
Slip Lining
Slip lining involves sliding a slightly smaller pipe into the existing one and sealing the ends. It is ideal for stabilizing deteriorating pipes and preventing further leaks.
Benefits of Trenchless Sewer Repair
Choosing trenchless technology brings homeowners peace of mind along with practical advantages:
- Minimal property damage and preserved landscaping
- Faster project completion compared to traditional excavation
- Cost savings on restoration and labor
- Durable solutions that can last 50 years or more
- Eco-friendly methods that reduce waste and disruption
Our Process
Every trenchless project starts with a careful inspection and ends with a verified repair.
- Sewer Camera Inspection – We use advanced cameras to identify the exact location and nature of the problem.
- Cleaning & Preparation – Hydro-jetting clears debris, roots, and buildup to prepare the line for repair.
- Repair or Replacement – Depending on the condition, we apply CIPP, pipe bursting, or slip lining to restore the line.
- Testing & Verification – Final inspections confirm that the line is fully functional and built to last.
After the work is complete, our team explains the results and shares the video footage so you can see the improvement for yourself. We also provide guidance on how to maintain your new or restored line, helping you avoid future blockages and ensuring your sewer system stays in top condition for years to come.
Trenchless vs. Traditional Sewer Repair
Understanding the difference helps homeowners make an informed choice:
- Trenchless Sewer Repair: No major digging, faster turnaround, protects landscaping, long lifespan.
- Traditional Dig and Replace: Extensive excavation, longer project times, significant yard disruption, costly restoration.
For San Diego properties, trenchless methods often save both time and money while maintaining curb appeal.
