No-Dig Trenchless Pipe Repair
Elite Plumbing uses innovative trenchless technology to repair damaged pipes without cutting floors, digging up yards, or destroying landscaping. Our no-dig solutions save time, money, and minimize disruption to your property.
What is Trenchless Pipe Repair?
Trenchless pipe repair is a modern alternative to traditional excavation methods. Instead of digging long trenches to access damaged pipes, we use specialized equipment and techniques that require only small access holes, preserving your property while delivering superior results.

Trenchless Repair Methods
Pipe Lining (CIPP)
Cured-in-place pipe lining creates a new pipe inside your existing damaged pipe:
- Resin-saturated liner inserted into damaged pipe
- Liner inflated to press against pipe walls
- Curing process creates seamless new pipe
- Original pipe becomes structural support
- No excavation required
Pipe Bursting
Pipe bursting breaks apart old pipes while pulling new pipes into place:
- Bursting head pulled through old pipe
- Old pipe fragments pushed into surrounding soil
- New pipe pulled into place simultaneously
- Only small access holes required
- Can upsize pipes during replacement
Spray Lining
Epoxy spray coating repairs pipes from the inside:
- Epoxy resin sprayed onto pipe interior
- Creates smooth, protective barrier
- Seals small cracks and leaks
- Extends pipe life significantly
- Ideal for preventive maintenance
