How trenchless sewer repair works in Fullerton

A damaged sewer line does not have to cost you the yard. We repair Fullerton sewer lines from the inside with pipe lining and pipe bursting, without open trenching.

Fullerton homes range from 1940s bungalows downtown to 1970s tract homes in Sunny Hills, and many still have their original cast iron or clay drain and sewer lines.

When to call for trenchless sewer repair

Call when you notice sewage odors, slow drains throughout the house, unusually green or soggy grass along the sewer path, repeated backups, or a camera inspection that showed a crack, collapse, or roots.

What Fullerton homeowners should know

Our home city. Housing runs from 1920s craftsman homes to early-2000s developments.

  • Built before 1960Galvanized steel supply lines and cast iron drains. Galvanized rusts from the inside, cutting pressure and discoloring water. Cast iron narrows and eventually collapses. Both are due for replacement.
  • 1960s to 1980sCopper supply lines with cast iron or ABS drains. Copper holds up well but can develop pinhole leaks from hard water.
  • Built after 1990Modern plastic supply and drain lines. More resilient, though pipes under a slab are harder to reach when they leak.

Water hardness

Fullerton's water is very hard. The City of Fullerton publishes the current figure in its annual water quality report. Regular water heater flushing helps, and a softener is worth considering on older copper or galvanized lines.

Trenchless Sewer Repair questions in Fullerton

What Fullerton homeowners most often ask us about trenchless sewer repair.

How long does trenchless sewer repair take in Fullerton?

Most jobs finish in a day. Pipe lining takes about four to eight hours. Pipe bursting can take longer, depending on the length of the line and the soil.

Does a trenchless repair last as long as a new pipe?

Yes. A properly installed cured-in-place liner is designed for 50 years or more, and pipe bursting installs new pipe with a similar lifespan.

Will my yard be damaged?

Very little. Access is needed at each end of the line, usually at a clean-out or a small excavation. The lawn, driveway, and hardscape between those points stay intact.

What customers say

★★★★★

Great experience with Miguel and Steven! Fixed my stubborn kitchen sink clog. Very informative and respectful of my home in addressing the issue. Highly recommend!

I had an excellent experience with SoCal 1 Plumbing! Eliass came out to clear a blockage in my kitchen line by snaking it through the outside wall clean-out, and everything was done efficiently and with great care. He also installed new tubular drains under my kitchen sink to stop the leaks I’d been dealing with. The work was high-quality, and they even provided a 1-year warranty on parts and labor, which gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend their professional and reliable service!

I had a plumbing issue that needed to be repaired sooner than later. Miguel came out and knew how to fix it immediately. Miguel was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I won't hesitate to call them in the future.
