The Detail
Three No-Dig Methods Under One Service
Trenchless sewer repair is the umbrella term for every no-dig method TDS Trenchless uses to fix a damaged sewer or drain line without excavating your yard, driveway, or foundation. Instead of one single technique, it covers three distinct methods — CIPP (cured-in-place pipe) lining, epoxy pipe coating, and pipe descaling — each suited to a different kind of pipe damage. If you searched “trenchless sewer repair” because you're not sure which specific fix you need, that's exactly what this page is for: a starting point that routes you to the right method once we know what's actually wrong with your line.
Straight Answers
Why Trenchless, and When It Isn't the Answer
Every trenchless method exists to solve the same basic problem as digging up a line: torn-up landscaping, broken concrete or asphalt, and a lot of downtime. CIPP lining, epoxy coating, and descaling all work from inside your existing pipe, so in most cases we never have to trench through your yard or driveway at all. That said, trenchless isn't always the answer — if a pipe has collapsed, shifted out of alignment, or is otherwise too degraded to hold a liner or coating, we'll tell you honestly and recommend Sewer & Water Line Excavation Repair instead. We'd rather route you to the fix that will actually hold than sell you a trenchless job on a pipe that isn't a candidate for one.
The Process
How We Choose the Right Method
- 01Camera Inspectionevery job starts with a camera inspection to see exactly what's happening inside the line, whether that's root intrusion, corrosion, scale buildup, or something more structural.
- 02Diagnosis & Method Selectionroot intrusion or structural cracking generally points to CIPP Pipe Lining; corrosion or pinhole leaks in metal pipe point to Epoxy Pipe Coating; reduced flow from scale buildup points to Pipe Descaling.
- 03Method-Specific Repairour 6-person field crew carries out the repair using the method that matches your pipe's actual condition, not a one-size-fits-all default.
- 04Post-Repair Camera Verificationa final camera pass confirms the finished repair before we call the job done.
Most trenchless pages we've reviewed regionally are built around selling one specific method — whichever the company happens to specialize in. We built this page the other way around: it's a pillar page that routes you honestly to CIPP lining, epoxy coating, descaling, or — when none of those fit — traditional excavation, based on what the camera inspection actually shows, not on which service has the best margin.

Warranty Coverage by Method
Because trenchless sewer repair covers more than one method, it is worth knowing both carry the same term: a 10-year workmanship warranty on trenchless (CIPP) pipe repairs and a 10-year workmanship warranty on epoxy pipe coating. Traditional excavation repairs, when that's the right fallback, carry a 1-year workmanship warranty. We'll tell you exactly which warranty applies once we know which method your pipe needs.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is trenchless sewer repair?
Trenchless sewer repair is the umbrella term for three no-dig methods we use to fix a damaged sewer line without excavating your yard: CIPP pipe lining, epoxy pipe coating, and pipe descaling. Which one applies to your pipe depends on what our camera inspection finds.
How is trenchless repair different from traditional excavation?
Trenchless methods work from inside your existing pipe, so in most cases we don't have to dig up your yard, driveway, or foundation. If a pipe is too damaged for any trenchless method to hold, we'll recommend Sewer & Water Line Excavation Repair instead of forcing a trenchless fix that won't last.
How do you decide which trenchless method I need?
Every job starts with a camera inspection. Root intrusion or structural cracking generally points to CIPP pipe lining, corrosion or pinhole leaks in metal pipe point to epoxy coating, and reduced flow from scale buildup points to descaling.
How much does trenchless sewer repair cost?
There's no single price for trenchless sewer repair because it depends on which method your pipe needs: CIPP lining runs $75–$200/ft for 4-inch pipe or $100–$300/ft for 6-inch pipe, epoxy coating runs $125–$175/ft, and descaling starts at $10/ft once the line is accessible. Every job includes a free estimate and requires a quote before work begins.
