Jose and his team were amazing! We had a nightmare sewer problem which resulted in having to install a new cleanout so the county could service our line out to the street. Pipe-Thru Trenchless was not only the lowest bid (half the amount of the highest bid!) they were also prompt, professional and committed to getting the job done. They faced numerous challenges in clearing the initial clog but they didn't give up until the job was done and they didn't charge me extra for the difficult work. They handled all the permit documents and we passed our inspections with flying colors. I can't remember the last time I had such a positive experience with a contractor. Oh wait, yes I can. It was my previous experience dealing with Pipe-Thru Trenchless when they replaced my rusted out galvanized pipe feeding my landscaping system on the other side of my driveway. The first bid I got proposed digging a big trench through my driveway. Jose and his team got the job done in literally a couple hours and left without a trace. That job also cost a fraction of what it would have cost to have to dig the trench and then repair my driveway. I can't say enough good things about these guys! read more

They came as soon as we asked them to help, they took time to assess the situation and what would have to be done upfront and they followed with the work promptly. They did a very high quality job. These people are very honest and fairly priced, they truly deserve to get a lot of customers and flourish as a business. The service has been excellent and the issue has been resolved in a timely manner. I highly recommend them for your plumbing work, you won't be disappointed. read more

Highly recommend - reasonable pricing, thorough explanations, quick response! We had a bad clog in our sewer line which another plumber was unable to unclog after spending 2 hours working on it with a snake. They said that it would require a hydrojet, equipment they didn't have. I found Jose on Yelp since he offers hydrojetting. He came to take a look the same day for a free estimate. He re-analyzed the situation and said he thinks it can be snaked, cautioning that using a hydrojet in this case may cause flooding. His crew came out the next day and cleared it in 40 minutes. The pricing was reasonable and what he estimated. read more

Jose and his crew were fantastic. Very fare price too! Another reputable company on Yelp gave me a significantly higher quote. Once I told them about Jose's quote, they said maybe they can match. Should offered that the 1st time around. Thanks Jose!! read more

They are reasonably priced and does the job as discussed. Of the 3 different quotes from various plumbers, they are the only ones that sent me a written estimate. We requested for a permit because it's a main water line. They took care of the permit process, including meeting with the inspector. I am happy with their responsiveness and work. They also clean up after each job. read more

The cast iron sewer system under our house was 72 years old and described as "paper thin" by a plumber 10 years ago. Time to upgrade to ABS. Jose, the owner, came out the same day as I called him, evaluated the situation and gave me a quote the same evening. It was a very competitive quote and he said he could do the job in one day. My other quotes said 2 to 4 days. Jose's crew came out a few days later promptly on time - Enrique (lead), Romiro and Memo. I've never seen workers work this hard! They had the whole job done in 4 1/2 hours! New ABS mainline and branches off to two bathrooms and a kitchen. They showed us the new ABS when they finished and explained in detail everything they did. Clean up was impeccable and they took all the old cast iron away. We could not be happier with the results. We highly recommend Jose and his team. read more

Jose and his crew were absolutely amazing! I was looking for someone to replace our makeshift end-of-line cleanout with a proper one, and Jose came out on a Saturday to give me an estimate - super fair pricing and great work done quickly on the next Friday. We ended up telling him about our crumbling cast iron main sewer line under our slab foundation, and a belly in the garage that's been causing us problems every year, and Jose offered us the CIPP + robot cutter trenchless solution so that we don't have to dig up every connection in our house, and it was at a fair price. Since they did a great job with the cleanout replacement, we decided to do the whole sewer line CIPP and dig up the belly too. Jose and crew arrived promptly at the scheduled time to start the work. They dug up a trench in the garage and replaced the section of the pipe with the belly on day 1. After the belly was replaced with new pipe, there was still not enough slope for the new section to properly drain, because the two end of the existing pipes were just at the wrong height and simply replacing the belly was not enough. Jose communicated this to us and proposed another solution where they would pipe burst under the current pipe for the section that's too high to my front yard clean out so that the whole section would have proper slope, at no extra charge. Meanwhile the crew in the back were working on the CIPP in parallel. They measured out where the openings were and carefully marked the linings with the measurements. Inserted the linings, cured it, cut it, then used robot cutters to reopen the connections. After everything was done, they patched everything back, and cleaned up the whole place. When they patched the concrete in the garage back, they made sure put in rebar to support that small cut out section of the concrete. We saw the final result together in the camera inspection and the pipe looks great - no more bellies and one nice sewer line with proper slope and smooth lining. I'm so glad I found this company and Jose who I know I can trust to do high quality work and do the right thing when there are unexpected hiccups that arise. Throughout the process, Jose took time to explain to us what will be done and how it will be done so we were never left in the dark. I really appreciated the clear communication. It was a pleasure working with Jose and crew! read more

Our regular plumber introduced us to Jose (because our plumber was at a job in another city). On a Saturday morning, our toilet stopped flushing and dirty water came out of our shower stall and bath tub. We were desperate to find a plumber that worked on the weekend. I called Jose and followed up with a text. He got back to me right away and said he could come out in half hour. He came to evaluate the situation and sent his workers a couple hours later to snake the line from our clean out access point. Tree roots were the culprit to the clog. The total cost was very reasonable. Highly recommend this company! read more

Pipe-Thru was recommended to me by my Contractor who remodel my bathroom, and Jose came to bid on the project. His bid was very reasonable, and since my contractor had experience with his work, I decided to engage him to do the project. They came to replace the cleanout to the street as required by WVSD, and did it within a day. However, it took WVSD 3 weeks to come inspect before they can fill it up and proceed with the completion of the project. THey finally completed the project today, and is now waiting for Final Inspection. After installing the clean out to the street, with the hole already dug, they suggested that we replace the sewer line to the house and install a 2 way clean out next to our house for easy maintenance, since the line was pretty old and clogged, so we decided to do that as their bid was rather reasonable. The team work very diligently and fast, and I would recommend them to whoever needs their clean out replaced. read more

Excellent experience working with Pipe-Thru on a sewer line project at my home. Job included CIPP on a section, re-routing to new pipe on another section, replacement via pipe bursting on a third section closest to the city sewer. New exterior cleanouts were added and work done for the permit required from the city. While many of the reviews already echo my sentiments, a few standout aspects of their service worth mentioning are: Refreshingly Action-Oriented and Collaborative: During the initial (free) estimate visit, Jose actively listened, scoped the line from the roof vent, invited me to observe real-time footage, explained his findings with simple sketches of the sewer layout, and proposed solutions. A straightforward, hands-on visit that felt productive and real. His insights were informative and confidence-inspiring, and his communication style--clear, approachable, and never patronizing--remained true for the entire project. Responsive but Not Pushy: During my quote-gathering phase, Pipe-Thru answered my questions thoroughly, making me feel like they were interested in my business without crossing into pushy territory. No aggressive follow-ups, no "special discounts if you sign today!"--just space and time for me to make an informed decision. Diligent Crew: Everyone was friendly, hardworking, and focused, with sub-groups tackling tasks in parallel to keep things moving. When a setback occurred on the second day, they stayed late to resolve things. Reliability Even at the Tail End: Demonstrated the same level of commitment to finishing the smaller pending items on the final days as they did with the main job. Jose made sure the right person was dispatched for specific tail end tasks and personally performed some work to get us past the finish line. Competence: Jose's understanding of what was both needed and feasible stood out as the most comprehensive. While another company proposed a different solution that later turned out to be suboptimal that they backtracked, Pipe-Thru got it right from the start. Their CIPP and boring equipment looked legit, and I'm amazed at what they accomplished with minimal disruption--working efficiently through a few access points. The one setback we encountered on the second day was worked around creatively using the least invasive solution from my perspective as the home-owner. Their work not only solved my immediate needs but it also gave me a deeper understanding of my property's sewer network. Jose came across as a stand-up human being and I enjoyed interacting with him and his team. I highly recommend Pipe-Thru to anyone looking for reliable and expert service. read more

Excellent experience replacing an old sewer line. Jose did a great job explaining how the sewer line would be replaced and his crew finished ahead of schedule. They were all very polite and demonstrated great care and quality. Not only was their work excellent, they also used the highest quality materials of the bids I got at a better price. I recommend them for any sewer work. read more

I need to install a property line cleanout as required by the city for my bathroom remodel project. I picked Pipe-Thru Trenchless Plumbing for this work out of few highly rated companies on Yelp not only because they gave the best quote, but also because I was very impressed by its owner Jose for his skill. Among all the people I interviewed with, Jose was the only one who can precisely estimate how deep the sewer line is without running the camera by opening the main sewer line cover on the street. On the date of the work, Jose's crew members showed up on time and started to do the work right away. You can tell that all the crew members are highly experienced and know exactly what they are doing. My house sewer line was tricky, but they were able to identify the exact property line cleanout location under my lawn and started digging. By noon, they have already did a 7-8 feet deep trench. They then went down to install the cleanout pipe. We have to leave the trench open for inspection, so they put few covers on the work area, wrap around the area for safety, and put few buckets of rocks and the concrete lid aside which will be used for the backfill. All are done in such a professional manner that I am really impressed. They also took pictures and upload to the city for inspection. It then took 2 weeks for the city to come and pass the inspection. After that, they promptly came back the next day to do the backfill. This time, it was another set of crew members, but they are the same professional and highly skilled. They carefully put the soil and rocks layer by layer, watering the soil and use compacter to compact the ground to make sure everything is solid. They then took pictures and clean the entire area thoroughly. Again, I am really impressed by their professional work. Overall, I am really satisfied with their work, and I'd highly recommend Jose and his company for any serious plumbing and sewer line work. read more

Jose was wonderful! He's not only patient but also very knowledgeable. He took the time to carefully investigate the source of the leak in my room and discovered it was actually coming from a moisture-absorbing bag. I was a bit embarrassed, but so grateful he found the real cause--he saved me from spending $400 or more on leak detection! He didn't charge me anything, I should've gave him some tip but I was so confused so I didn't have time to give him anything. Highly recommended Jose. read more

They showed up right on time. Did the job efficiently. No surprises. Job done quickly.

Sewer line replacement was definitely not something we were eager to deal with, but it had to be done and with Jose and his team on our side it was a smooth process. We got a few estimates to compare, and Jose stood out right away. He was clear, thorough, straightforward, and honest about what needed to be done. The work was completed efficiently, with minimal disruption to our property, and everything was left clean. The pricing was fair, and Jose stuck to his original estimate with no surprise add-ons along the way. We're very happy with both the process and the final result, and would gladly recommend Jose to anyone needing similar work. read more

We had Jose come out and give us an estimate for some serious issues with older pipes. He did a thorough inspection and gave us a way better option than another company. His crew came out and rerouted pipes and put in 2 new clean outs in one day. No more issues at half the price!! Great work. Would not hesitate to use them again read more

We hired Pipe-Thru for our sewer lateral replacement, and they did a fantastic job! Jose was very knowledgeable and stood out as just a good human being. When we bought our house, we inherited a sewer lateral replacement. The original rooter service the seller used for the evaluation required digging up quite a significant section of our backyard. I had contacted two other plumbing rooters, but neither could scope the work because of their own coordination challenges or because our backyard was up against a large hill. So when Jose came by to provide an estimate, he was the most helpful and knowledgeable by far! He diagnosed the state of our sewer lateral line, outlined which portions needed replacing, and described how they would approach the replacement. He assured me there would be minimal damage to our backyard because of their trenchless method. The quote was competitive, and given how helpful he was for the estimate, it was an easy decision. Jose and the team were communicative and responsive throughout the entire project. After the job, we were glad to see the backyard in the same shape it was initially, with the addition of a new cleanout for our line. We had some additional questions about SSF sewer lateral certification after the fact that Jose kindly helped us navigate. These guys are seriously good at what they do--highly recommended! read more

Jose of Pipe-Thru Trenchless did a fantastic job as part of the team which recently installed a custom wrought iron gate at my folk's place. Pipe-Thru Trenchless provided about 40' of piping for the gates to have power. My mom says, "Jose did an excellent, neat, careful job. 5 star service!!! Reasonable price for excellent work. Definitely will hire again!" Thank you, Jose and team. read more

I've been dealing with piping issues for years due to an 80-year old house, and root growing throughout the pipes. Finally came a major leak underneath the house and two other plumbers came out and could not fix it. They gave up after 4 hours trying to unclog the pipe. I found Pipe-Thru on Google search and Jose (the owner) came to my house within 1 hour. He inspected the problem and immediate came up with the smartest solution. He's very knowledgeable with lots of experiences, and so smart! I hired him on the spot for the job because I can tell that he has dealt with these issues before and was the right person for the job. Jose and his team came out within two days and get all the work done seamlessly in less than 3 days. It was a really big job because they have to reroute the pipes throughout the entire house. There were 5 men working relentlessly from 8-6 every day. They had to excavate the pavers throughout the yards to put in new pipes. When they're done, everything was put back perfectly (even better than before) and they clean up EVERYTHING - spotless. If I could give this company 10 stars, I would. These are very honest, extremely hard working people. On top of that, they're so nice and pleasant to work with. VERY reasonable price for top-notch work!! I now have all new pipes that will last for another 80 years and I'm so happy with the final result. I will DEFINETLY use this company again for all my plumbing needs, and will recommend them to all my friends and families. Jose - THANK YOU SO, SO MUCH for doing such GREAT work. I can't thank you enough for the excellent work that you and your team do. We're so lucky to have found the best plumbing company. read more

Outstanding experience! Punctual for the estimate, arrived early for the job, and completed the work with exceptional care and precision. I'd hire them again without a second thought read more

After finding out the damage that was done over time to the GI pipe, some due to time and the remaining due to the bad plumbing that was done while the house was being put together ( directly connecting GI to copper pipe causing electrolysis resulting in rusting and choking the GI pipe) I reached out to Jose and team amongst others to find out what could the best and fastest way to replace the pipe. Jose was the first to show up and I was pretty impressed finding out about the trenchless technique to do this job. Most of the other vendors that came out to estimate recommended digging open the lawn patch , and then fold it back once the pipe was laid in ( definitely not the same landscape anymore). Eventually agreed upon with Jose (his pricing was the most competitive amongst all the estimates that were quoted to me) to proceed with this and he and the crew came and did a fantastic job today. Clean like nothing ever happened, fast ( couple of hours at max) with the least amount of water disruption. Would definitely recommend Jose and team , for their excellent work, great customer service and respecting time and being punctual with their commitment. Thanks once again Jose and crew!!! read more

I second Sayli B's detailed and positive review of this company and Jose. After getting really expensive quotes from having to excavate the whole side of the house & walkway (which was COMPLETELY unecessary with a trenchless method), Jose came in with a reasonable quote. He explain how he'd reroute the plumbing piping for the bathroom (without having to reorganize how toilet, tub etc were laid out ...which another contractor had told me would have to do). That way we avoid further issues down the line with the main sewer pipe running under a bedroom too, that had rotted out after 70 years ad was under slab of house. Thorough, efficent, good communicator, good cleanup (would have never known they were there after 3 days!), they gave me a decent price. They accidentally broke handle of faucet, and since it was old, they replaced the whole thing for free afterwards. The only work they didn't do is replace the tiles for the bathroom floor and their recommendation of contractcor was pretty high in cost. So just found my own who came quickly and once floor set, Pipe-thru came back in to reseat the toilet. I'd highly recommend you consider this team. read more

Jose was fantastic, responsive even on his day off, very helpful and knowledgeable. He even gave me suggestions to help me outside of the scope of the work, to help me keep my foundation dry. For my home in Morgan Hill, they installed a storm drain, trenchless pipe to the street with a sump pump to help me keep my driveway clear of rainwater and keep my foundation dry. Thank you Michele read more

I had a water main broken under the concrete and Jose came and gave me an estimate. It was a reasonable price. Their crew came and finished the job within 3-4 hrs. Trenchless, nothing to dig. I would definitely recommend them. read more

Jose responded quickly to my request for an estimate for a leak in the middle of our private court. His estimate was very reasonable compared to some other very expensive quotes we received. The crew arrived early and worked really hard to uncover the leak. We had no idea what the cause of the leak was until the crew dug down 3-4 feet and uncovered the leaking pipe. They fixed it, tested the fix, and then repaired the asphalt all within a day. They cleaned up very nicely before they left too. The crew was very nice and polite. I highly recommend Pipe Thru! read more

Quick response and solved my issue with garbage disposer. Highly recommend Jose for your plumbing projects. No fuss and very thourough. It's great that we didn't have to replace it. I must have dropped a screw in the sink when we painted the cabinets. He found it, pulled it out and apparently we have at least another year with this one. Also, he was the most reasonable quote. Thank you Jose for your great care. Best to you and your business. read more

I have a very old house. Several times a year, the pipes would clog. Each time it cost me to have it cleared. I delt with so many plumbers. Most were at least reasonable. One was so bad. He worked for less than an hour and charged $450.00. A week ago, I saw a small leak. I read reviews and called this company. The owner is Jose. He found the problem, told me the solution, and quoted a price. I agreed to do the work. He showed up on time with a very skilled crew. Their work was excellent. No more clogs. They were very professional. The cleaned up thoroughly when they were done. And, their price was remarkably fair. I would not even consider calling someone else. I found that a lot of the plumbers know that you need service, and take full advantage of you. Jose is a true gentleman. I was lucky to find him. read more

During recent storms I realized that the storm drain in my yard is not functioning properly. I contacted Jose from Pipe-Thru plumbing based on recommendation from my neighboor. It took a few days to schedule an appointment, but giving the weather conditions and number of people that needed this type of service - its understandable. Jose came over. He had all the right equipment to locate the clog in the drain. In a week i had crew working to dig out the problematic section of the pipe. Guys were friendly and did really good job. Also cleaned up well after the job was completed. Pricing is reasonable too. I appreciate Jose and his crew working hard to resolve the issue i had read more

We've been having persistent sewer clogs that finally got too bad to just rooter it out anymore. Jose arrived a few hours after contacting him, and he gave us a range of choices from a quick repair to a slab-to-street complete replacement that evening. Two days later his crew was on site at 8am, and had the job finished by noon; where other plumbers said they'd leave us to repair the hole in the driveway, Jose's team replaced and re-grouted the pavers so that we couldn't even tell where they dug. A clean, efficient, quality job from start to finish, very conveniently timed and at a great price. It's the best experience I've had with a major underground job like this. read more

We wanted to replace our 60 year old sewer pipes before it was an issue requiring digging through our soon to be new landscaping. The crew came out and replaced the line, added the street and house clean outs. Super quick and super easy. Two weeks later we discovered our main water line was leaking and needed replacing, Jose and crew came out on a holiday and replaced the Main water line quickly with very little disruption to our front yard. We cannot be happier with pipe-thru, highly recommend them! read more

Jose and the team at Pipe-thru Trenchless plumbing came through for us when it mattered. Our old water pipe to the house bursted somewhere under ground. After reaching out to Pipe-thru, Jose personally came out and assessed the situation. Jose gave a fair and competitive quote. Within an hour his team came out to put in a temporary line. On the day of the repair, the team was focused, quick and professional. The trenchless method they do kept our concrete intact and less impact to the landscaping. They got 95% of the repair done, and handled all the paperwork for the permit. After inspection the team came back out to finish and clean up. Their responsiveness and professional is exactly the kind you want. Overall they helped resolve a stressful situation and did a great job at it. You hope not to have a water pipe burst, but if it does this is the company you want helping you. read more

I had a puddle of water in my crawlspace and I thought my galvanized rusted sewer pipe cracked. I got quotes from 5 plumber contractors to replace my sewer pipes. Jose was the only person who immediately told me the sewer pipes were not cracked because the water did not smell bad. He then spent 20 minutes finding out what the real problem was. I had a leaking water pipe. I eventually decided to replaced my galvanized sewer pipes to eliminate any problems in the future. Jose's quote was the most competitive. He had a crew of 5 or 6 and they finished the job in 1.5 days. They did a great job even though the crawlspace was very small and it was filled with mud. More importantly, they kept my house, porch and outside area clean during the entire process. Thanks! read more

Only asked for an estimate. My landscape drain gets clogged sometimes. Another company quoted me $9000 for trenchless replacement with pipe-bursting. I wanted another estimate. Pipe-Thru arrived on time. Quickly ran their camera through and told me that the pipe is good and nothing to replace. It was just undersized for the size of the yard. What the other $9000 company told me was a breakage in the pipe, Pipe-Thru said was an intact tee, which made sense because it was near a downspout. Pipe-Thru also said that pipe bursting would not be recommended here because the pipe is shallow and underneath a concrete patio which could get damaged. I felt like I got honest and qualified opinion. They left without any work for them and I felt bad about wasting their time. read more

Our house is nearly 70 years old, and the lateral sewage pipe needed to be replaced. I'm so happy we hired Jose and his team at Pipe Thru. Jose came over the same day I called and spent nearly an hour with me at the free consult showing me the state of the pipe with the camera (roots!) and answering all of my questions with patience. The quote was very competitive. He got on the permit the next day and work started just a couple days later. The entire team was extremely professional and went the extra mile of installing a clean out for a connection we weren't expecting and keeping the worksite pristine. Pipe Thru is an honest and expert company and I highly recommend them! read more
