Trenchless pipe replacement is a method of replacing old pipe with new pipe. Toledo
Roto-Rooter uses a process developed by Tric® that pulls a hardened steel splitting
head through the old pipe. We have the capability of replacing 3 inch to 6-inch
sewer and storm drainage piping without the antiquated “open-cut” method previously
used. We can replace piping under roads, parking lots, driveways and sidewalks with
the same size or upsizing is available as well. The new pipe is installed and the
old pipe is broken and compacted into the adjacent soil. The pipe has been approved
for use in Ohio and Michigan.
The new pipe is attached to the back of the splitting
head and is pulled in as the old pipe is split and expanded.
The new pipe follows the path of the old one.
