Sewer problems? Drains Backed up? Trenchless Company specializes in sewer and waterline repair and replacement without digging! We have a full service drain cleaning and rooter division with professional service technicians available 24/7. We service both residential and commercial customers in Sacramento and surrounding areas, San Francisco/Bay Area and San Jose. In addition, we are licensed in the state of Nevada to service the Lake Tahoe and Reno community. We have the most cutting edge technology to handle all of your plumbing, sewer and drain cleaning needs. To learn more about our company, visit our website at www.dontdig.com or call us today at 1-888-DONTDIG. The Trenchless Company was established in January 2000. The owner Max Greenberg is a third generation plumbing contractor locally in the Sacramento area. His inspiration for The Trenchless Company came to him while he was working at his father's plumbing company. He came across a new technology called Trenchless that allowed damaged sewer and waterlines to be replaced without digging. Max realized the importance of this new technology as it relates to the plumbing industry and envisioned forming a plumbing company around it. The Trenchless Company was founded on utilizing the latest technology available to solve their customers plumbing problems with less destruction and mess to their property.

"This review replaces a previous review written as the work was nearing completion, after the field supervisor was freed from a larger assignment. With his hands-on leadership, the project was closed out in a few hours, and the county inspector approved the work. It was a rocky road. This three-day project expanded into three weeks. While the initial team started well, the work was slowed by equipment failures, reassigned workers, and poor team communication. The work failed two county inspections due to insufficient management oversight, and was resolved by redoing a lot of the work and tearing up more of our yard. Two sprinkler lines had been broken and improperly repaired. After I spoke with the owner of the company, a senior leader ensured the sprinklers were fixed, and the work area cleaned. The owner and managers are using this experience to further train their staff on their field practices."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

It is a common belief that excavation is easier or less costly when done in the summer or when the ground is not frozen. Seasons have little effect on when excavation can occur; however, inclement weather can prolong the duration of the job and potentially increase costs. For this reason, those in rainy climates may opt for seasons with milder weather.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.
