Modern Sewer Solutions Without Tearing Up Your Property

Yes — in many cases it is more durable. Cured-in-place pipe liners are made from high-strength epoxy resin that, once cured, creates a seamless, jointless pipe inside the host pipe. Because there are no joints, there are no weak points for roots to infiltrate or ground movement to separate. Most trenchless pipe linings carry manufacturer warranties and are rated for 50 years or more of service life. Pipe bursting replaces the old pipe with new HDPE pipe, which is corrosion-resistant and highly flexible. Both methods have been in use for decades and have a well-documented track record in municipal and residential sewer systems across the country.

Most residential trenchless sewer repairs are completed within a single day. The timeline depends on the length of the pipe run, the method being used, and site conditions. A pipe lining job on a standard residential lateral — typically 50 to 100 feet — can often be finished in four to eight hours. Pipe bursting jobs take a similar amount of time. More involved projects, such as long runs, access complications, or jobs requiring directional drilling, may extend into a second day. Regardless of scope, our crews work efficiently and communicate clearly about scheduling so you know exactly what to expect before we start.

That is one of the primary advantages of trenchless technology. Traditional sewer excavation requires digging a trench along the full length of the pipe, which destroys any landscaping, paving, or hardscape above it. Trenchless methods require only small access points — often just one at each end of the repair section. In most cases, those access holes are dug in inconspicuous locations such as near a cleanout, along a foundation, or in a utility area. Lawn, gardens, driveways, and concrete surfaces are largely left undisturbed. After the job, the small access points are restored and the area is left clean.

Yes. Allied All-City performs trenchless sewer line work for both residential and commercial customers throughout Nassau and Suffolk County. Commercial sewer systems often involve larger diameter pipes, longer runs, and more complex routing — all of which our equipment and crews are prepared to handle. We have worked on retail properties, multi-family buildings, restaurants, industrial facilities, and municipal projects across Long Island. If you manage a commercial property and are dealing with a recurring sewer problem or need a proactive infrastructure assessment, contact us to schedule a camera inspection and discuss your options.

Long Island has a combination of factors that accelerate sewer line wear. Much of the residential infrastructure was built in the mid-twentieth century using clay tile or cast iron pipe, both of which degrade over time. The island's mature tree canopy means aggressive root systems are everywhere — oak, maple, and willow roots in particular are notorious for finding and exploiting pipe joints. Soil conditions vary considerably between the North Shore and South Shore, and freeze-thaw cycles each winter create ground movement that stresses older pipe joints. Add in the sheer age of the systems and it becomes clear why sewer line issues are so common here. Allied All-City understands these local conditions and approaches every job with that context in mind.
