Our Water Line Repair Services
Trenchless Water Line Repair
This modern repair method eliminates the need for large-scale excavation by accessing water lines through minimal entry points. Using advanced tools, damaged pipes are restored quickly and efficiently, minimizing disruption to your lawn or driveway. This technique ensures strong, seamless repairs while preserving your property's appearance and reducing the overall project timeline.
Leak Detection and Diagnostics
We use non-invasive equipment like acoustic sensors, thermal imaging, and pressure monitors to detect water line issues early. Our targeted diagnostic process pinpoints hidden leaks inside walls, beneath slabs, or underground. This helps avoid unnecessary damage or guesswork, allowing for timely repairs that prevent structural problems and unnecessary water loss.
Pipe Bursting and Replacement
Pipe bursting is used when existing water lines are beyond repair. This method fractures the damaged pipe and installs a new line simultaneously, without digging long trenches. Ideal for severely deteriorated or collapsed pipes, it offers a permanent solution that avoids major property disruption and improves overall water delivery system integrity.
Copper and PEX Line Replacement
We replace aging or corroded water lines using high-quality copper or PEX piping. These materials meet local building codes and offer resistance to corrosion and environmental stress. Our team ensures each installation improves water flow, system longevity, and safety, providing a reliable upgrade that adapts well to both modern and older properties.
Emergency Water Line Repair
Sudden water line failures require fast, accurate intervention. Our emergency services are available to quickly isolate the issue and restore water service, minimizing downtime and property damage. With rapid deployment and trained professionals, we handle urgent repairs efficiently to protect homes, prevent flooding, and ensure consistent system performance during unexpected breakdowns.
Valve and Pressure Regulator Replacement
When pressure regulators or shut-off valves fail, they can affect water flow and compromise your system. We assess and replace faulty components to restore proper operation and prevent pressure imbalances. This extends the lifespan of water lines, protects plumbing fixtures, and supports consistent system performance without the need for larger repairs.
Benefits of Professional Water Line Repair
Minimal Property Disruption
Trenchless water line repair eliminates the need for widespread excavation, helping maintain the integrity of lawns, gardens, patios, and driveways. This approach minimizes landscape damage, eliminates the need for major surface restoration, and allows property owners to resume normal activities without enduring prolonged site cleanup or reconstruction.
Enhanced Water Efficiency
Repairing damaged water lines directly improves flow and pressure by eliminating leaks and blockages. This enhances system performance while reducing water waste. Over time, efficient water usage leads to lower utility bills, supports sustainable water management, and ensures uninterrupted access to clean water for both household and commercial operations.
Long-Term Durability
By using reliable materials like copper and PEX, combined with advanced trenchless repair methods, water line systems gain enhanced resilience. These solutions are engineered to withstand environmental pressure, soil shifting, corrosion, and daily usage, delivering a stable and dependable system built for long-term performance and fewer future disruptions.
Cost-Saving Over Time
Although trenchless water line repair may involve a higher initial cost, the reduction in labor, excavation, and post-repair restoration leads to notable savings over time. Quicker repair timelines, fewer disruptions, and reduced need for secondary repairs contribute to a more economical investment in the life and reliability of the plumbing system.
Quick Turnaround Time
Trenchless techniques paired with modern diagnostics enable faster problem identification and resolution. Many repairs can be completed in a single day, minimizing inconvenience and downtime. This speed is particularly valuable for homeowners and businesses needing immediate restoration of water service with minimal interruption to daily operations.
Prevention of Structural Damage
Addressing water line leaks early helps prevent water from infiltrating foundations, crawlspaces, or interior walls. Timely repair reduces the risk of foundation shifting, mold development, and wood rot. This proactive approach safeguards the building's structure and promotes a healthier, safer indoor environment for occupants.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my water line is leaking underground?
Underground leaks often reveal themselves through unexplained increases in water bills, wet areas in the yard, foundation cracks, low water pressure, or damp spots on floors and walls. Professional diagnostics can confirm the issue and determine the location of the leak.
What is trenchless water line repair?
Trenchless water line repair utilizes pipe bursting or cured-in-place lining to fix or replace pipes without significant excavation. This method preserves surrounding surfaces, minimizes labor, and reduces overall disruption compared to traditional open-trench repair practices.
Is trenchless repair suitable for older homes?
Trenchless repair methods are well-suited for older homes with fragile foundations or mature landscaping. These non-invasive techniques accommodate existing plumbing infrastructure and help prevent damage to structures and outdoor features that could result from conventional digging.
How long does a trenchless water line repair take?
Most trenchless water line repairs are completed within one to two days. Project duration depends on factors such as the severity of the damage, access points, the repair method chosen, and environmental or property-specific constraints affecting the work area.
Will the water be turned off during repairs?
Water service is temporarily suspended during repair work to ensure safe and accurate system access. Certified technicians plan and execute repairs efficiently to reduce the amount of time without water and ensure the system is restored quickly and correctly.
What types of piping materials can be used in repairs?
Common piping materials include copper, PEX, and high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Selection is based on environmental conditions, code compliance, water quality standards, and system design requirements, providing optimal durability and long-term performance for both residential and commercial plumbing systems.
Can trenchless repair fix recurring leaks?
Recurring leaks caused by corrosion, invasive roots, or soil movement can be permanently resolved using trenchless methods. Replacing the damaged section with seamless, durable piping helps eliminate future problems and enhances system reliability without repeated excavation or temporary patchwork solutions.

Testimonials
I had an outstanding experience with Duke’s Plumbing. Mat, the service technician, installed a new water heater and expertly plumbed out the installation of our new bathroom. He was highly professional, efficient, and extremely knowledgeable. The pricing was fair, and the quality of work was top-notch. It’s rare to find a company that operates with such integrity and skill. I wouldn’t hesitate to call them again and highly recommend their services!
Denielle G.
Nate and Kyle did a great job replacing our sewer line by trenchless. They showed up on time, finished the project as scheduled with no surprises or cost increases. In fact, Nate was significantly lower in cost than the big trenchless companies. Got the County permit as well. Friendly people who did a good job. It’s nice to support local small businesses rather than the big guys.
