Underground
Line Rescue.
Water line leaks, recurring drain clogs, sewer failures, PB30 pipe bursting, and full replacements — handled with evidence first. We show the camera footage, leak location, photos, and plain-English options before anyone talks big money. Repair what makes sense. Replace only when the pipe proves it.
Every line. Every fix.
One crew handles the whole underground toolbox — so the recommendation fits the pipe, not the only machine on the truck.
Repair vs replace — how we decide.
Every line problem walks the same three-step ladder. Most jobs stop at step one or two. Nobody should be sold step three without evidence.
The Yard-Saver Line Diagnosis
- Camera or leak locate first. You see footage, locate marks, and photos — you're deciding from evidence, not a sales pitch.
- Repair-vs-replace options in plain English. We compare the smallest repair that actually solves it against the long-term fix, so you're not paying for the same leak twice.
- Trenchless eligibility review. If the line qualifies, Bluelight CIPP lining or PortaBurst PB30 pipe bursting can protect the lawn, driveway, and landscaping from a full trench.
- Honest rule: trenchless is an option only after the camera or locate confirms the pipe qualifies. If full replacement is smarter, we say that too.
Water line problems.
Wet yard or meter spinning? This usually starts with leak detection — a meter test, pressure test, and acoustic locate that finds the leak before anyone guesses with a shovel. If the rest of the water line is healthy, a spot repair may be enough. If the line has repeat failures or old material, replacement can be cheaper long-term than paying for the same leak twice.
Low pressure or no water? Low pressure can be a fixture issue, a valve issue, a pressure regulator, or a failing water service line. The advantage of a diagnostic-first approach is proving where the loss is before recommending a large repair — pressure checked at the right points, shutoffs inspected, and the service line tested for water loss.
Leak detection is $289 flat (acoustic + thermal imaging), estimates are free, and diagnostic fees are credited toward the repair when you book the work. See our upfront pricing page for how everything is priced.
Sewer line failure? Three paths.
Some lines need digging. But when PB30 pipe bursting or Bluelight CIPP fits, you should see why those options can protect the lawn, driveway, and landscaping.
Traditional Dig
When excavation is the only right answer, the yard, driveway path, or landscaping can take the hit. That's why we prove the pipe first. Typically $7,500–$18,000+ for a 60-ft lateral.
- The honest fix for collapse, bad grade, or misgraded lines
- Camera evidence, permits, utilities, and restoration planned before work starts
PortaBurst PB30
HammerHead PortaBurst PB30 pipe bursting uses up to 30 tons of pulling force to burst the old pipe outward while pulling new pipe through the existing path — small access pits instead of a full trench.
- Best when the old sewer is too damaged for lining but the path can be reused
- Replaces collapsed, badly broken, or undersized laterals
- Quoted by scope and access, upfront
Bluelight CIPP
HammerHead Bluelight LED CIPP creates a pipe-within-a-pipe when the host pipe still has a usable path — roughly $3,800–$6,500 for a typical 60-ft lateral, with a 50-year warranty on the lining.
- Less digging when the camera says the pipe qualifies

Drain clog that keeps coming back? Don't pay for the same clog again without seeing the pipe. A drain cleaning may solve it today, but a repeat clog needs a camera — roots, bellies, cracks, offsets, grease, and old pipe each point to a different fix. Our sewer camera cost guide explains what a scope costs and what it catches. Sewage backing up right now? A collapse or active backup is urgent — our emergency sewer crew stabilizes the home first, documents the failure, then compares point repair, PB30, or full replacement depending on the break.
Quoted a full replacement? Pause.
Before the yard gets opened, let us prove what the pipe actually needs.
We compare the quote against camera footage, leak location, access, pipe condition, and trenchless eligibility — sewer point repair, Bluelight CIPP, PB30 pipe bursting, and replacement, side by side. Estimates are free.
