A broken sewer lateral used to mean one thing: an excavator in the front yard, a trench through the landscaping, and a driveway cut in half. Trenchless sewer repair changes that math. When roots, cracks, bad joints, or leaks are the problem — but the sewer still has a path through it — HammerHead Bluelight LED CIPP lining builds a new structural pipe inside the old one, from the inside, with no trench.
Here's how the lining works: after the line is cleaned and prepped, a resin liner is installed inside the old pipe and cured with blue-wavelength LED light. HammerHead says the blue-wavelength LED cure can make a 50-foot run cure in under 12 minutes after the line is prepped, with the cure monitored live on camera during the automated pullback. The system covers pipes from 2 to 18 inches. When it's done, you have a pipe within a pipe — and the lawn never knew we were there.
And when the line is too far gone to line — collapsed, crushed, or undersized — we don't force it. That's when underground line replacement with HammerHead PortaBurst PB30 pipe bursting takes over: full replacement through small access pits instead of an open trench. Lexington homeowner?
