Pipe bursting is a trenchless method of replacing an existing water pipe with a new one. It can be used to replace pipelines that are structurally sound but in need of repair, or to upgrade water lines to accommodate increased demand or changing conditions.
Pipe bursting works by creating a small hole at the start of the existing pipe and another at the end. A hydraulic machine then pulls a replacement pipe through the old pipe, breaking it up as it goes. This method of pipe repair is less disruptive than traditional trenching methods and can be used in a variety of situations.
