Trenchless Water Line Replacement in Ethel, LA

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 Ethel, LA 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 Ethel, LA.

Talk to a person
How do I know if my main water line needs replacement in Ethel, LA?
Look for a wet patch in the yard that never dries, a meter that moves with every fixture closed, low pressure at the hose bib, or rusty water. If the line is galvanized, lead or polybutylene, replacement usually beats repair.
How long does a whole house repipe take?
Most occupied homes take two to five days, depending on size, number of bathrooms and access. Water is usually restored at the end of each work day.
How deep is a water service line buried?
It has to sit below the local frost line. That can be 12 inches in warm southern areas and 5 feet or more in the northern states. Your local code sets the exact depth.
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.
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.
