When you have a broken sewer line, collapsed drain, or failed underground plumbing buried beneath your foundation, you want it fixed fast — without ripping apart your floors or turning your home into a construction zone. Under Slab Tunneling San Antonio TX is the solution that protects your tile, hardwood, and concrete while restoring your system to working order without requiring a complete demolition. We hand-dig a tunnel beneath your slab to gain direct access to the damaged pipe, rather than jackhammering your finished surfaces unless absolutely necessary.
Homeowners in Stone Oak, Alamo Heights, Leon Valley, Helotes, and Converse call us when sewer repair is urgent, and we’ve worked in zip codes ranging from 78209 and 78230 to 78254 and 78258. Older clay and cast iron lines found in Terrell Hills and the near-north side near 78212 are especially vulnerable to root intrusion, offset joints, and deterioration that necessitate this type of access. We explain how we will reach your line and what the repair entails before we start.
