Trenchless Sewer Repair in Mokena, IL

In a Mokena subdivision, the sewer line usually runs under a driveway, a front walk or a landscaped yard you've spent years on. Trenchless repair fixes the pipe through small openings, so most of that stays put. From our office on Jodi Road.

Know the Basics

What Is Trenchless Sewer Repair?

Trenchless sewer repair, also called no-dig sewer repair, fixes a damaged pipe without digging a trench along its full length. Instead of opening up your yard from the house to the street, we work through one or two access points and repair the pipe from the inside or replace it in place. There are two main methods: cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining and pipe bursting. Both fix the line underground, so what's above it stays untouched.

Local Knowledge

Why Trenchless Fits Mokena Homes

Most homes here went up in the 1990s and 2000s, with yards and driveways that are just as established.

Driveways Over the Sewer Path

Many lines run under the driveway to the street. A liner goes under the concrete instead of through it.

Paver Patios and Mature Landscaping

Openings are placed to protect what you've built.

Loose Joints Along the Line

When roots have found several joints, lining seals all of them at once.

A Sag Still Needs a Spot Dig

A liner follows the pipe, including its low spots. A real sag gets fixed first.
