When a plumber tells you they need to dig up half your property to fix a broken sewer line, it’s not just the repair cost that hits you. It’s the retaining walls, the mature landscaping, the stone driveway, the irrigation system. In Old Westbury, where properties are designed with care and maintained at significant expense, traditional excavation can cost you more in restoration than the actual pipe repair.
Trenchless pipe lining services in Old Westbury, NY eliminate that problem entirely. We dig two small access holes—usually about 4′ x 4’—and repair or replace your entire sewer line from the inside. No trenches. No heavy equipment destroying your lawn. No weeks of disruption while contractors dig, repair, backfill, and try to put everything back the way it was.
The process creates a new pipe inside your old one using cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) technology. It’s stronger than the original. It stops root intrusion. It improves flow capacity. And when we’re done, your neighbors won’t even know we were there.
Allied All City has been handling sewer and plumbing work across Nassau County long enough to know what Old Westbury properties deal with. Older sewer lines. Tree roots from mature landscaping. Clay pipes that have shifted or cracked over decades. Properties with long runs of pipe—sometimes 100 feet or more—because of larger lot sizes and setbacks from the street.
We’re not new to trenchless methods, and we’re not learning on your property. We’ve handled residential and commercial projects throughout the area, and we know how to assess a line, recommend the right repair method, and complete the work without turning your property into a construction zone. Our team is available 24/7 for emergencies, and we’re equipped to handle everything from straightforward pipe lining to more complex pipe bursting when a full replacement is necessary.
First, we run a camera through your sewer line to see exactly what we’re dealing with. Cracks, root intrusion, corrosion, bellies in the line—whatever’s causing the problem, we need to see it before we can fix it. That camera inspection tells us whether trenchless pipe lining is the right solution or if another method makes more sense.
If pipe lining works for your situation, we dig those two small access holes—one at each end of the damaged section. We clean the inside of the existing pipe thoroughly, then insert a flexible liner saturated with resin. That liner gets positioned inside your old pipe and inflated. The resin cures in place, hardening into a smooth, durable pipe that’s actually stronger than what you had before.
The whole process typically takes about a day and a half for a standard residential sewer line. Once the liner is cured and we’ve confirmed everything is sealed and flowing properly, we backfill the access holes, clean up, and you’re done. No landscaping crew needed. No driveway repair. No weeks of waiting for everything to get put back together.

Trenchless pipe lining for old homes in Old Westbury handles most common sewer line problems: cracks, corrosion, root intrusion, and minor misalignment. It works on pipes ranging from small residential lines to larger diameter commercial systems. The new liner improves flow capacity and creates a smooth interior surface that resists future root penetration—a big deal in areas with mature trees.
This method won’t work if your pipe has completely collapsed or if there are major bellies or offsets in the line. In those cases, pipe bursting might be the better option. That’s still a trenchless method, but instead of lining the old pipe, we break it apart and pull a new pipe through in its place. Either way, you’re avoiding traditional excavation.
Old Westbury properties often have longer sewer runs than typical suburban homes because of larger lots and greater setbacks. That means more pipe to repair—but it also means more landscaping, hardscaping, and property features that would be destroyed by traditional trenching. Trenchless methods make even more sense here because the cost difference compared to excavation and restoration gets larger as the project size increases.
Trenchless pipe lining in Old Westbury, NY typically costs thousands less than traditional excavation when you factor in the full scope of work. The repair itself might have a similar base cost, but traditional methods require you to restore everything that gets destroyed: landscaping, driveways, walkways, retaining walls, irrigation systems.
On a property with 75 feet of sewer line running under a stone driveway and mature landscaping, traditional excavation could mean ripping up the entire run, then paying a separate contractor to rebuild the driveway and a landscaping company to replant and restore the lawn. Those restoration costs often exceed the actual pipe repair cost.
With trenchless methods, you’re paying for the pipe work and that’s essentially it. Two small access holes get backfilled and sodded. Everything else stays untouched. The total project cost ends up significantly lower, and you’re not dealing with multiple contractors or waiting weeks for restoration work to get scheduled.
A standard residential trenchless pipe lining job in Old Westbury takes about a day and a half from start to finish. That includes the camera inspection, cleaning the line, installing the liner, curing it in place, and final testing to confirm everything is sealed and flowing properly.
Compare that to traditional excavation, which can take weeks. Digging the trench, exposing the pipe, making repairs, backfilling, and then waiting for restoration contractors to rebuild whatever got torn up—it’s a much longer process with more disruption to your daily routine.
The curing time for the resin is the main factor that determines how long the job takes. Once the liner is in place and inflated, it needs several hours to fully harden. After that, we do a final camera inspection to verify the repair, backfill the access holes, and clean up the site. Most homeowners are back to normal use of their plumbing the same day we finish.
Yes, trenchless pipe lining handles root intrusion effectively as long as the pipe hasn’t completely collapsed. Root damage is one of the most common reasons homeowners in Old Westbury need sewer line repairs—mature trees send roots searching for water, and they find it in small cracks or joints in your sewer pipe.
Before we install the liner, we thoroughly clean the inside of the pipe and remove any roots that have grown into the line. Once the new liner is cured in place, it creates a smooth, seamless interior surface with no joints or gaps where roots can penetrate. That means the problem doesn’t come back.
If roots have caused a full collapse or created major offsets in the pipe, we might recommend pipe bursting instead of lining. That’s still a trenchless method, but it replaces the entire pipe rather than lining it. Either way, the repair addresses the root issue permanently and prevents future intrusion without requiring us to dig up your trees or landscaping.
That’s exactly what trenchless methods were designed for. Whether your sewer line runs under a paved driveway, stone driveway, concrete patio, or any other hardscape feature, we can repair it without excavation. We access the pipe from two small points—typically at the cleanout and at the connection to the street—and do all the work from those access holes.
Traditional repair would require jackhammering or ripping up your entire driveway to expose the pipe, then repaving or rebuilding it after the repair is complete. That’s expensive, disruptive, and time-consuming. With trenchless pipe lining, your driveway stays intact.
This is especially valuable in Old Westbury where driveways are often long, custom-designed, and constructed with premium materials. Replacing a stone or paver driveway after excavation could cost as much or more than the original sewer repair. Trenchless methods eliminate that entire expense and hassle.
A properly installed trenchless pipe liner typically lasts 50 years or more. The cured-in-place pipe creates a new, seamless pipe inside your old one that’s resistant to corrosion, root intrusion, and the ground movement that damages traditional pipes over time.
The liner material itself is extremely durable—it’s designed to outlast the original pipe. Because it’s installed as one continuous piece with no joints or seams, there are no weak points where leaks or root intrusion can start. The smooth interior surface also improves flow and resists buildup that can cause clogs.
Most homeowners in Old Westbury are dealing with sewer pipes that are 50, 60, or 70+ years old. Clay pipes, cast iron, or early PVC that’s cracked, corroded, or compromised by decades of ground movement and root growth. Trenchless pipe lining essentially gives you a brand new pipe without the cost and disruption of full replacement. It’s a permanent repair, not a temporary patch.
Both are trenchless methods, but they work differently. Pipe lining creates a new pipe inside your existing one by inserting and curing a resin-saturated liner. Pipe bursting breaks apart the old pipe and pulls a new pipe through to replace it. We use pipe lining when the existing pipe is still structurally intact enough to support a liner—meaning it has cracks, corrosion, or root damage, but hasn’t fully collapsed.
Pipe bursting makes more sense when the old pipe has collapsed, has major offsets or bellies, or is so deteriorated that lining it wouldn’t provide a reliable repair. The bursting head fractures the old pipe and pushes the pieces into the surrounding soil while simultaneously pulling the new pipe into place.
Both methods avoid traditional excavation, and both are completed from small access holes at each end of the damaged section. The choice between them depends on what the camera inspection reveals about the condition of your existing pipe. In some cases, we might use a combination—lining one section and bursting another—depending on what each part of the line needs.
