Trenchless Sewer Repair in Puyallup: what is different here

Older homes near downtown Puyallup sit on the valley floor along the Puyallup River, where wet-season soil can stay soggy. That makes digging messy. About 10 minutes east on SR 512 from our base, we run a camera first, then explain whether lining or pipe bursting fits your side sewer.

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 Puyallup

Not usually. Soggy ground is one reason homeowners near the river prefer trenchless options, since lining or pipe bursting needs only small access points. The camera decides it: a badly sagging or crushed line may still need a dig. Check with the City of Puyallup about what the work needs before we start.

Here is what is typical once we are on site. Camera inspection: typically 1 to 2 hours. Pipe lining: typically 1 to 2 days. Puyallup is about 10 minutes from our base via SR 512 east. 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.
