Trenchless Installation Options for Your Property

From under-driveway crossings to full main line runs, we install new water lines without open excavation.

Trenchless Mole Installation

A new water line is driven underground using a pneumatic mole — no open trench, no excavation along the run. The steel mole displaces soil and pulls copper pipe through in a single pass.

Main Water Line Installation

A full new water line from the municipal meter connection to your home’s plumbing system — installed underground with minimal surface disruption.

Partial Underground Line Install

New pipe run for a specific section only — under a driveway, across a yard, or beneath a hardscape area where open trenching isn’t an option.

What We Do

Install a New Water Line Without Touching Your Driveway or Lawn

Pneumatic moling is a method of underground pipe installation where a compressed-air mole drives through the soil, displacing it outward and pulling the new pipe behind it. No trench along the run. No excavation under driveways, patios, or landscaping. Entry and exit pits are small — typically one shovel width on each end. We perform moling in-house with our own equipment and crew. Copper is our default pipe material: it meets all Bay Area code requirements and delivers a 50+ year service life. HDPE is available where site conditions make it the better fit. Our licensed plumbers manage the full job — site assessment, permit procurement, underground installation, and final inspection — without subcontracting the core work.
