Replacing or repairing your sewer pipes is difficult and messy work, especially if the lines are buried deep underground. For years, homeowners have relied on traditional sewer work to complete these projects, only to be shocked and dismayed when the final bill comes in.
Trenchless pipe bursting offers an easy way to replace your old damaged pipes without excavation. Our team is well-versed in this method of sewer line replacement. We proudly provide the best plumbing solutions to our community in Santa Clara and beyond.
Let’s dive deeper into what trenchless pipe bursting is and how does it work.
Trenchless pipe bursting is a method of replacing sewer, gas or water pipes, without having to dig trenches. During the initial stage of a pipe bursting process, a steel cable is used to hydraulically pull a cone-shaped pipe head through your existing sewer line.
This breaks up the old, damaged pipe, making it easier to remove if necessary. While the new head breaks the old pipe apart, a new, seamless high density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe is pulled through your sewer line and into place. The new pipe is configured to fit any size sewer line.
Pipe bursting is an extremely durable solution that can last for over 50 years! This durability prevents future sewer line problems and leakage for decades so you don’t have to worry about your sewer line repair again.
Due to the fracturing and soil-clearing nature of pipe bursting, there is enough space for larger pipes, with increased fill capacity, which permit additional free flow. Therefore, the replacement pipe has a larger diameter than the replaced pipe.
Trenchless pipe bursting allows homeowners to avoid significant damage to landscaping, walkways, driveways, and other structures on the property – with trenching, this is unavoidable and costly.
Pipe bursting is one of the cleanest sewer solutions out there when compared with traditional sewer repair. Pipe bursting is the least disruptive to your surrounding environment since it avoids the need to dig up any roads or landscaping. This also prevents any deadly toxins from leaking into your system as well.

Thank you Lyan2025-05-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a clogged toilet and it was late at night. I tried to clear it myself but was unsuccessful so I called up Plumbing Point Inc and spoke to Nathaniel. He was very professional, punctual, and an honest guy. Thank Nathaniel! sagar dholakia2025-05-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nathaniel is a great technician from Plumbing Point. He made it happen in an extremely tight/small/limited space. I had to replace my tankless water heater (installed probably in 2009) and it was inside a very uncomfortable attic area with limited space and air circulation. He strategically examined the space and then executed followed by completion of the job. It took roughly 2 days for completion but it was worth it in order for a long term solution and hassle free stay. There was little hurdle but he took a creative approach in order to assist me and probably comply with the City codes. I would definitely recommend him as he understands the customer and it's problem followed by reasonable and creative but careful approach.

What should you do when you’re in the South Bay and must urgently resolve a plumbing issue? The short answer: Call Nathaniel and his team at CA Plumbing Point - you will not be disappointed by their professionalism and honesty. My experience: Dishwasher delivery staff were unable to install replacement due to a leaky valve under my kitchen sink, so I was stuck to figure things out. It was clear especially after reaching out to several plumbers that Nathaniel and his team at CA Plumbing Point, Inc. are the real deal: honest professionals who also happen to genuinely care about people and who are able to prioritize helping their customers. After describing the issue to Nathaniel (on a Sunday afternoon), grateful he scheduled a member of his staff in time the next morning (especially after others fell through). In this recent experience, they were the only plumbing company that treated me like a customer who they even cared to support, and also were able to follow-through effectively in time. Armando arrived on-time (as had a narrow time window due to coordination with City/HOA for water shutoff), and they were able to resolve and replace the leaky valve as well as the others as a preventive measure with quality parts in time at a reasonable rate. This was huge as it was already a disruption to neighbors also impacted by the 3-hour water shutoff. It made my week, as the appliance installers were able to finish the install shortly after Armando completed some quality plumbing - and is wonderful a professional who also was a pleasure to communicate with. Thanks so much again for the rescue, Nathaniel & Armando at CA Plumbing Point! Syed Nawaz2025-04-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Had two plastic valves replaced with metal and repair of a leaking dishwasher hose. Cost per valve was $240. Frank Pan2025-03-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
