Pipe Bursting

When underground pipes must be replaced due to degradation and cracks, we may be able to install new lines without digging up your entire yard and other surface structures. Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Denver offers several trenchless pipe rehabilitation methods for laying new lines. One such method is “pipe bursting”, in which machine uses a pointed tool called a “bursting head” drives through the old pipe, breaking it apart into tiny pieces. At the same time, the machine pulls in new pipe, which is laid in the cavity left behind the bursting head. The method allows for larger-diameter pipes to be laid, which makes this method a popular choice when customers desire increased flow via larger pipes.
