Why Trenchless Sewer Repair?
We all know sewer repairs can be a pain since it can mean tearing up your yard over a plumbing or sewer issue. This is where our trenchless sewer repair service comes in, giving you a faster, cleaner, and less disruptive solution that gets the job done without the mess and stress.
Traditional sewer repair often requires digging up landscaping, cutting through driveways, disrupting traffic, and filing for permits. It’s messy, time-consuming, and expensive.
Trenchless repair avoids all that.
No torn-up lawns or sidewalks
No days-long construction zones
No need for multiple contractors
Lower permit requirements
Faster turnaround, as little as 3 hours
And in most cases, trenchless repair costs less than conventional excavation, especially once you factor in restoration work.

How Trenchless Sewer repair works
At Krupp Whitney Plumbing, we start by performing a detailed camera inspection to assess the damage and confirm that trenchless repair is the right approach.
Once approved, here’s how the process works:
01 Inspection
We insert a high-definition camera into your sewer line to identify exactly what’s causing the problem, whether it’s tree roots, collapsed sections, or heavy scaling.
02 Cleaning & Prep
Using our Picote System, we clean out the line by removing debris, scale, and roots. This restores the original pipe and ensures the surface is ready for lining.
03 LINER INSTALLATION
We then insert a flexible liner soaked in a special resin into the existing pipe. Once in place, it’s inflated and cured, creating a brand new pipe inside the old one, without digging.
04 REINSTATING LINES
With our IMS Robotics cutting tool, we carefully navigate the line and reopen any side branches that drain into your main lateral, making sure your entire system stays connected.
The result? A durable, jointless, corrosion-resistant pipe that’s built to last 50+ years.
Perma-Liner is the gold standard in trenchless pipe repair. Whether your home is in Upper St. Clair, the Northside, or Southside Pittsburgh, many neighborhoods have aging sewer infrastructure. Perma-Liner is perfect for older homes, as it:
Repairs cracked, corroded, or broken pipes
Connects to sections with missing pipe
Stops tree roots and groundwater intrusion
Installs quickly—often in just one day
