Is it possible to rehabilitate pipes without digging?

[Harret]

Like all new homeowners, I’ve fallen into a common trap. We finished renovating our house last fall and poured a concrete slab around the foundation. Now, this spring, we’re having problems with water drainage. Apparently, a pipe has sagged or cracked somewhere under the concrete. Breaking up the new pavement would be devastating, and we can't afford it anyway because we're already in debt from the repairs. Please advise: Is it possible to repair the pipes without digging?

All my neighbors agree that without a tractor, we can't do anything and will have to tear everything apart. I’m at my wits' end. Is there a way to access the pipe through the manhole cover in the yard and repair it without causing damage?

Stop listening to those know-it-alls and their outdated methods! It’s 2026 - no one tears up pavement over a single crack anymore. My father-in-law had the same problem when a plastic pipe burst under the pavement where he parks his car. The “experts” came running, too, advising him to hire someone to dig up the driveway. Fortunately, I found trenchless repair from Maya Global TM online in time. You can check out their website to see what they offer. They have 40 years of experience in this field and definitely know better than your neighbors. It’s worth noting, though, that this technology only works if there’s a crack in the pipe. If it’s completely collapsed, you’ll have to do it the old-fashioned way. But don't worry; they’ll tell you how to do it with minimal damage to the yard. I recommend consulting with them in any case. How exactly did you figure out there was a problem with the pipe?
