Why Trenchless Sewer Repair Fits Many Boulder Homes

Boulder's older neighborhoods have long front setbacks, mature trees and decades of landscaping above their sewer lines. Trenchless methods can replace or reline that pipe with far less digging, though they are not the right answer for every line.

Smaller footprint

Pipe bursting and lining usually work from one or two small pits or an existing cleanout instead of a full trench.

Protects mature trees

A long trench can cut major roots of the large trees common on mid-century Boulder lots. Trenchless work avoids most of that.

Lower restoration costs

Less digging means less concrete, sod, sprinkler and paver work to pay for after the pipe is fixed.

Fewer joints for roots

Fused HDPE pipe and cured liners have few or no joints, which removes the usual entry point for roots.

Not for every line

Collapsed pipe and deep bellies often still need a dig. A camera inspection shows which method fits your line.
