Hillsboro homeowners choose MT Dunn Plumbing because we treat every sewer line like it’s connected to our own home.
Every sewer repair follows a structured process built around accuracy and minimal disruption to your property.
Before any repair begins, technicians run a camera through the line to confirm the exact cause, location, and severity of the damage.
Using electronic locating equipment, technicians mark the precise depth and position of the damaged section on the surface above.
Based on pipe material, damage type, and access, we determine whether trenchless lining, pipe bursting, spot repair, or open excavation is the right fit.
Technicians walk you through the footage, the recommended method, and a firm written quote before any ground is disturbed.
Utility lines are marked, work zones are protected, and any landscaping in the immediate area is carefully set aside for restoration later.
Hydro-jetting or mechanical cutting removes roots, debris, or scale so the repair method can be applied to a clean pipe surface.
Depending on the chosen method, crews install a cured-in-place liner, burst and replace the old pipe, cut in a spot repair, or excavate and replace the damaged section directly.
Once the repair is complete, technicians test the line to confirm proper flow, watertight seals, and correct slope.
A final camera pass confirms the repair meets specification and that no additional issues remain in the line.
Backfilled trenches are compacted properly, and any disturbed lawn or landscaping is restored as close to original condition as possible.
Most trenchless sewer repairs are completed in a single day; full excavation replacements typically take one to three days depending on line length and depth.
Sewer damage often starts small and gets expensive fast. Call us if you notice:
Understanding the cause helps us recommend the right long-term fix, not just a temporary patch.
Proper sewer flow starts with identifying the source of the problem and applying the right repair solution.
MT Dunn Plumbing restores dependable sewer performance with targeted repairs designed for long-lasting results.
From what we’ve seen, the answer is a firm yes in most cases, and it’s usually our first recommendation. At MT Dunn Plumbing, we’ve seen how trenchless repair protects the mature landscaping and finished hardscaping that make older Hillsboro properties so valuable in the first place.
Older Hillsboro neighborhoods often sit on established lots with mature trees, finished landscaping, and driveways or patios that homeowners don’t want disturbed. A traditional repair might assume the only path to a fixed pipe is digging straight through everything above it, but trenchless methods let us fix the pipe from the inside out, accessed through a small entry point, without tearing out everything built above the line. That’s a significant advantage, and time and again, it’s exactly why we lead with this option on older properties.
We’ve evaluated plenty of aging sewer lines where trenchless repair solved the problem completely while leaving the yard, driveway, and landscaping untouched. In almost every case, homeowners were relieved to learn they didn’t have to choose between a working sewer line and the property improvements they’d invested in over the years.
The value of an honest recommendation is significant, since trenchless isn’t the right fit for every situation. Severely collapsed sections, extreme bellies, or lines with major misalignment sometimes still require traditional excavation to get a lasting result, and we think of that honesty as the whole point, you’re not just getting a repair, you’re getting the method that actually fits your pipe’s condition.
Homes with established landscaping, mature trees, or hardscaping near the sewer line, in particular, benefit most from exploring trenchless first, since it’s precisely where the disruption of traditional excavation would be felt the most.
Both options come with real trade-offs in cost, timeline, and disruption, and you deserve to understand them clearly. Our team walks through both before recommending anything, so you can decide what actually makes sense for your property and your budget.
Every sewer repair begins with a thorough inspection to identify the actual cause of the problem. We use the inspection results to recommend the most effective and cost-efficient repair instead of applying a one-size-fits-all solution.
| Inspection Finding | Recommended Sewer Repair |
|---|---|
| Minor pipe crack | Spot pipe repair or sectional replacement |
| Tree root intrusion | Hydro jetting followed by root removal and pipe repair |
| Broken or collapsed pipe | Partial or full sewer line replacement |
| Offset pipe joints | Joint realignment or replacement of affected section |
| Corroded cast iron pipe | Pipe replacement or trenchless pipe lining where suitable |
| Bellied (sagging) sewer line | Excavation and replacement of the sagging section |
| Heavy grease buildup | Professional hydro jetting and system cleaning |
| Recurring blockages | Video inspection followed by targeted pipe repair |
| Leaking pipe joints | Joint sealing or replacement of damaged fittings |
| Multiple damaged sections | Comprehensive sewer line replacement or trenchless rehabilitation |
By matching inspection findings with the appropriate repair method, MT Dunn Plumbing delivers reliable sewer repairs that restore proper flow while minimizing unnecessary work and long-term costs.
