Very impressed with the work they did. Our main sewer line broke and settled right outside the foundation. This was a major problem as the line was under an outdoor kitchen, bathroom and concrete pad. 3 contractors said only way to fix it was to tear everything out and put a big trench through the concrete. These "Guys" were able to burst the old pipe and pull a new pipe through to get everything fixed in a day. Incredible. The other contractors were amazed that this was even an option. Could barely tell anything was done at the end.

Expert Sewer Gas Leak Detection in Wooster, OH
Sewer gas leak detection in Wooster means finding exactly where hydrogen sulfide and methane are escaping from your sewer system before those gases reach living spaces. At The Trenchless Guys, we use electronic gas detection equipment and sewer line locating tools to trace the leak to its source without guessing. Many Wooster homes sit on Wayne County's heavy clay soils, where freeze-thaw cycles shift the ground every winter and put stress on older sewer laterals. That ground movement can crack pipe joints, separate fittings, and open gaps where sewer gas escapes. Homes in established Wooster neighborhoods often have vitrified clay tile laterals that have absorbed decades of that stress. We locate the breach, document its position, and give you a clear picture of what needs repair. If you smell rotten eggs near floor drains, in your basement, or around your yard, call The Trenchless Guys to get a definitive answer.
