Trenchless Sewer Repair in Olympia: what is different here

Olympia's older homes in South Capitol and on the Eastside often have clay or cast iron sewer lines, and older trees shade many of those streets. A trench through a mature garden is hard to undo. We take I-5 south past Joint Base Lewis-McChord, about 40 minutes, and start with a camera.

How the job runs

  1. Camera the line

    We run a camera through your sewer line and show you the video. You see the roots, cracks or sags yourself.
  2. Choose the method

    We explain if lining, pipe bursting or a dig repair fits your pipe, and why. You get a flat-rate price first.
  3. Clean and prepare

    For lining, we clean the pipe wall. For pipe bursting, we dig a small access hole at each end.
  4. Repair and re-check

    We install the new pipe, reconnect it and run the camera again so you see the finished line.

Trenchless Sewer Repair questions in Olympia

Your side sewer usually runs from the house to the public main, and in most cases you own it. LOTT Clean Water Alliance treats the area's wastewater. Before a lining or pipe bursting job, check with the City of Olympia. We camera the line first so you know what you are fixing.

Here is what is typical once we are on site. Camera inspection: typically 1 to 2 hours. Pipe lining: typically 1 to 2 days. Olympia is about 40 minutes from our base via I-5 south past Joint Base Lewis-McChord. We confirm timing with you when you book.

A camera inspection tells us. Lining needs a pipe that still holds its shape, even if it is cracked or has roots in the joints. If the line has collapsed or sags badly, a liner may not work. We show you the video and explain your options.
