A brand-new pipe pulled through the old one's path β no trench, no landscape destruction.
Pipe bursting in Cerritos, CA is the trenchless answer to a pipe that is too far gone to line: collapsed sections, badly offset joints, or an undersized line that needs upsizing. A cone-shaped bursting head is pulled through the old pipe, fracturing it outward into the surrounding soil, while a brand-new seamless HDPE pipe follows immediately behind in the same bore path.
The result is a completely new line β often larger in diameter than the original β installed through two small pits instead of an open trench. HDPE is fused into one continuous piece with no joints for roots to exploit, and it is rated for a century of service. Most residential bursting jobs finish in a single day.
A camera inspection gives you answers in under an hour.
