Trenchless Pipe Bursting pulls a brand-new, full-diameter HDPE pipe through your failing old one — simultaneously shattering the deteriorated pipe outward. No open trench. No disrupted yard. Most residential runs complete in a single day.
Free phone consultation. Flat-rate pricing. No upsells, ever.
Some sewer lines are too far gone for a liner. Trenchless Pipe Bursting is the no-dig answer when CIPP isn't an option — four situations show up on nearly every job.
The window for Trenchless Pipe Bursting stays open as long as the line has a passable bore. Waiting until sewage backs up into the home removes no-dig options and drives costs up sharply.
A Trenchless Pipe Bursting install is precise, fast, and leaves behind a 50-year-rated HDPE pipe. Four standards make every LiningWorks pipe bursting job consistent.
Same five-step Trenchless Pipe Bursting sequence on every residential job — whether the run is 28 feet or 280 feet. Here's how it actually works.
High-resolution sewer camera maps cracks, collapses, offsets, and the city-tap connection. Trenchless Pipe Bursting specs — head size, HDPE diameter, pull length — all come from this footage.
Talk to a Camera-scope Tech Entry pit at the cleanout end, exit pit at the city connection. Everything between is untouched. Most Trenchless Pipe Bursting access pits are 3×3 feet — a fraction of open-cut excavation.

A steel cable is run through the old pipe. The bursting head and trailing HDPE pipe are attached at the entry pit. The hydraulic winch is staged at the exit pit, ready to pull.
Talk to a Camera-scope Tech The hydraulic winch pulls the bursting head through the old pipe, fracturing it outward while the new HDPE pipe follows directly behind. The entire Trenchless Pipe Bursting pull typically takes one to two hours.

We run a post-install camera scope from cleanout to city tap. You watch the smooth, jointless HDPE pipe on screen, sign off, and leave with both videos. Backfill and surface restoration follow immediately.

A 1940s Myers Park home with a 45-foot clay-tile main that had developed a mid-run collapse — no shape left for a CIPP liner. Trenchless Pipe Bursting replaced the entire run with 6-inch HDPE in under four hours, using two 3×3-foot access pits under the driveway. The driveway stayed intact.
That arc repeats on nearly every Trenchless Pipe Bursting job we run in Charlotte: scope, pit, pull, verify. One day on site, one continuous HDPE pipe, 50-year structural rating — and no excavation scar across the yard.

We had a plumbing emergency around the holiday's and called a local plumbing company. They cleared the line and quoted a pretty high price to dig up my yard and fix the damaged sewer line. The next day I found LiningWorks online and called Jeremiah. He was very helpful and confident they could fix my sewer line without digging. Seemed too good to be true. The lining has been installed, yard not damaged and looks to have resolved the break. Jeremiah even offered to come back and scope it at a later time to ensure it's all good. Highly recommend Lining Works for any situation where you can't or don't want to dig. Thanks guys!
LiningWorks was top notch. We had a sewer main that got damaged and was completely blocked up. They were able to clear the drain, remove all issues, and reline the entire sewer main without cutting out my driveway and yard. And they were able to get the job done in one day. I would and plan to do business these guys again in the future and would highly recommend them to others.
Where do I begin? Let's just say I had an absolute nightmare on my hands for about 5 years with my sewage. I had one company quote me 7k after he snaked my sewage line and from there I just kept snaking it every year. I dreaded the oncoming financial disaster but I bit the bullet and called LiningWorks. BEST home decision of 5 years. Jeremiah came out and tackled this chaos with grace and integrity. He got down to the root of it — after years of money, anxiety, and frustration he found out it was a city problem! I will definitely be calling LiningWorks when my lining needs replacing. Call them now, you will not be disappointed.
Hired them to redo the pipes at my home because they were old. They were very polite, answered all my questions thoroughly and did an AMAZING job. Jeremiah was the very best that I could ask for and highly recommend his services. Extremely satisfied with the work done. Thanks again Jeremiah!
I am very happy with the work that was done and the clean up after the job was done. Jeremiah and Ralph are very professional and skilled in their craft. I received an estimate and the job did exceed the original estimate. I contacted them about it and they were very understanding and explained why.
Lining Works was excellent to work with. They were perfectly professional. They were organized, efficient, and friendly throughout the whole process. They took time to answer all of our questions. Pipe lining is an incredible option and the team at Lining Works couldn't have been better. They were also transparent, honest, and consistent with their cost/pricing. We couldn't be happier. We feel very fortunate that we found Lining Works. Great guys!
The main drain line in our airbnb kept clogging up, filling the house with an awful sewage smell. We had drain cleaners come out to clear the line every couple months but it finally got so bad we had to close off our bookings. LiningWorks were very prompt in coming out. We discovered tree roots had broken up our line. Our sewage line runs under a tree and 6ft deep through our crawlspace so digging it up was going to be a nightmare. Liningworks was able to cut the tree roots out and line the pipe without any digging so that it's as good as new. Would definitely recommend them to anyone needing sewage line repair.
Lining Works responded to my request quickly and fixed my drain problem very fast. I would highly recommend you give them a call.
