Trenchless Water Line Replacement in Foothill Ranch, CA

A trench across a mature lawn, a driveway or a paver walk is the expensive part of many service line jobs. Trenchless replacement skips most of it. SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Foothill Ranch, CA property owners with crews that do pipe bursting and pulled line replacement.

The method is simple to describe. One pit goes near the meter and one near the house. A cable runs through the old pipe, a bursting head splits it, and new HDPE tubing follows behind in one continuous piece with no joints underground. Copper lines are often slit rather than burst.

Trenchless works best on straight runs of 30 to 150 feet. It is less suited to lines with sharp bends, lines that collapsed completely, or yards where gas and electric run close alongside.

Restoration is usually two patches of sod instead of a strip down the yard. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301 to ask whether your water line is a candidate for trenchless water line replacement.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Trenchless Water Line Replacement in Foothill Ranch, CA.

Talk to a person
How can I tell if I have polybutylene pipe?
Polybutylene is flexible gray or blue plastic, often stamped PB2110, found in many homes built from about 1978 to 1995. Check near the water heater, under sinks and where the main enters the house.
How do I check for a lead service line?
Find the pipe where it enters the house near the meter or main valve. Lead is dull gray, soft, scratches to shiny silver with a key, and a magnet will not stick. Your water utility may also have a record of your line material.
Who owns the water line between the street and my house?
In most areas the utility owns the line up to the meter or curb stop, and the homeowner owns the rest. Rules vary by city, so it is worth asking your water department.
Do I need a permit for water line replacement?
Most cities require a plumbing permit for service line replacement and whole house repiping, plus an inspection before the trench is backfilled or walls are closed.
What causes pinhole leaks in copper pipe?
Pinholes usually come from pitting corrosion caused by water chemistry, such as low pH or high chlorine or chloramine, or by high flow speed in small pipe. Repeat pinholes mean the whole run is thinning.
