About this service

Tunneling refers to the process of creating a tunnel beneath your home or building to access and repair underground pipes without disturbing the structure above. This method is particularly useful for addressing plumbing issues in hard-to-reach areas, such as beneath the foundation or slab.

We dig a horizontal path beneath the concrete slab foundation so we can repair or replace underground pipes without destroying indoor floors.

How Tunneling Protects Your Home

  • Protects floors:
    Keeps messy excavation outside and leaves nice indoor tile, wood, or carpet untouched.
  • Fixes major issues:
    Used for severe slab leaks or broken, rusted cast iron sewer lines.
  • Live in the home:
    Allows families to stay in the house and use utilities normally while work happens outside

Situations Where Tunneling Is Necessary

Tunneling is often necessary in cases where pipes are damaged or deteriorating but are located under concrete slabs, driveways, or other permanent structures. Instead of breaking through these surfaces, tunneling allows plumbers to reach and fix the problem with minimal disruption.

Benefits of Tunneling Over Other Methods

  • Minimal Disruption:
    Tunneling avoids the need to tear up flooring or concrete, preserving the integrity of your home.
  • Cost-Effective:
    While tunneling can be complex, it often proves more cost-effective than the extensive repairs needed if concrete slabs are broken.
  • Efficiency:
    Tunneling enables quick and efficient repairs, reducing the downtime for your plumbing system.
