Fast, reliable sewer replacement that saves your yard and your time.
Hear from Our Customers
Your sewer line doesn’t have to destroy your landscaping. Modern trenchless sewer replacement lets us fix your underground problems without turning your property into a construction zone.
You get the same reliable, long-lasting results as traditional methods. The difference is we only need one or two small access holes instead of digging up your entire yard. Your driveways, patios, and gardens stay untouched.
Most jobs wrap up in 1-3 days. No weeks of disruption, no expensive restoration costs, and no waiting for your yard to recover. Just a working sewer system and a property that looks exactly like it did before we arrived.
Sugar Bear Home Services has been handling San Jose’s sewer problems for over two decades. We’re a family-owned company that built our reputation one satisfied customer at a time.
San Jose’s aging infrastructure means many homes still have clay or cast iron pipes that are reaching the end of their useful life. We’ve seen it all – from tree roots infiltrating lines to seismic activity causing shifts and cracks. Our team knows exactly how to handle the unique challenges that come with Bay Area plumbing.
We’re licensed, insured, and available 24/7 for emergencies. When your sewer line fails, you need someone who shows up ready to solve the problem, not someone who’s still learning on the job.
First, we inspect your sewer line with a camera to see exactly what’s wrong and where. No guesswork, no surprises. You’ll see the same footage we do, so you know exactly what needs fixing.
Next, we create small access points at each end of the damaged section. For trenchless replacement, we use pipe bursting to break up the old pipe while simultaneously pulling in a new, high-density polyethylene line. For lining repairs, we insert a resin-saturated liner that cures in place, creating a new pipe inside your old one.
The new line is tested for leaks and proper flow before we backfill the access holes and clean up. You’re left with a fully functional sewer system that’s designed to last decades, not years.

Every sewer replacement includes a thorough camera inspection, detailed cost estimate, and cleanup when we’re done. We protect your floors, respect your property, and guarantee our work for the first year.
San Jose homeowners face unique challenges with their sewer systems. The city maintains over 2,000 miles of sewers, but you’re responsible for the lateral line connecting your home to the main system. When tree roots from the Bay Area’s abundant vegetation infiltrate your pipes, or when seismic activity causes shifts, you need fast, professional repair.
We offer both trenchless and traditional replacement methods. Trenchless typically costs $4,000-$15,000 depending on length and complexity, while traditional excavation can add thousands more in restoration costs. Most of our San Jose customers choose trenchless because it’s faster, cleaner, and often more cost-effective when you factor in the avoided landscaping damage.
