      Fantastic, Professional, efficient and responsible!
      Trenchfree completed my sewage connection with the city in Saratoga (trenchless way), demolished my septic tank, and kept my deck, landscape in the same perfect condition. Their pricing is reasonable, and competitive. From the first person I dealt with (Freddy) , to their work team, led by Carlos, each and every personnel was professional and knowledgeable in their position. They were there to make sure each and every process were carried out correctly. (Moving and re-planting trees, opening and putting back decks..etc) I was present during several city inspector's visit, and was very satisfied with how proficient Carlos resolved issues with the inspectors. This was a very big job for my property, and therefore I was very very tedious with my questions. Carlos and Freddy were patient in answering my questions, made sure I was 100% satisfied and updated. Project was finished by date promised. Definitely recommend this company!

      I needed my main water supply line replaced after it started to leak in my front yard. I got 5 quotes and Trench Free wasn't the lowest bid or the highest, it was fair. They explained everything the best. Their quote was complete and knew and discussed the building code with me. They understood the pros and cons of all the materials and different methods. So they gained my trust. Then the execution of the project was perfect and on-time... and trench free. Which mattered a lot when I had done most of the design and planting in my yard... and the kids loved watching the horizontal drill, pretty cool.

      TrenchFree is an exemplary business and the online favorable reviews are true.

      Unfortunately, we had to replace a residential sewer line which was original to the house. TrenchFree was so professional and clear with the work scope, no hidden costs or surprises.

      Carlos, their estimator/sales manager, was quick to diagnose what our sewer line needed, showing us with a camera. He's very personable to negotiate the work contract terms. From Jose to handle the contract, to Antonio to schedule the work, and the onsite crew of Hector and his teammates -- everyone was topnotch.

      TrenchFree took care of all the details.
      They handled having the gas line sprayed in advance and obtained the permit to add a city street clean out valve. They met the city inspector for the permit to be signed off on and backfilled all the dirt and poured new cement for a new house clean out valve. They kept us updated with the progress along the way.

      The trenchless sewer line replacement itself took about 6 hours of which the water was shut off for 2 hours.

      Their prices are very fair considering this is a labor intensive job that often requires permits. Of course you should get other bids but you'll find out that TrenchFree is the leader because this is their specialty.

      I'm late writing this follow up review. Everything went off without a hitch! We are very satisfied with the speed at which they fit us into the schedule, the friendliness of the workers (my apologies, I forgot their names!!), and the quality of the job they did. It passed inspection the first time, and they compacted the dirt that they had to dig out to put in the cleanout at the property's edge. Finally, the price was hard to beat, so when factoring that into the equation, we unreservedly recommend TrenchFree. Thank you to all who worked our job.

      they are still here. they have been at Bonnie View for 5 years now and everything is harder with Trench Free. I feel like I'm living in a Sarah Winchester nightmare. they have to dig a trench, but it doesn't work, they have to drill a hole but it harder than they thought and now jackhammers hammer away. It's a nightmare with no end and it's all harder with Trench Free.

      A fabulous company. Very competitive rates. High quality work. In addition, our job site had a complication with tougher than expected compacted soils. They powered straight through.

      Directional boring is such a superior method compared to cut and cover if you can get away with it. For our sewer lateral, TrenchFree made the math work.

      I called TrenchFree and spoke with Gabriel explaining the possibility of a main waterline leak to the house. He set up an appointment that afternoon at 4.
      Antonio showed up right at 4:00. He was very nice and thorough checking the grounds and connections. We walked the whole water main line and checked to see if my water meter showed any movement.
      After a few minutes of watching the meter and having no movement on the water gauge he determined there was no leak and to Periodically check the ground, connections and water gauge for possible signs of leaks.
      His quote if I was to have needed the water main line replaced was what I would consider a fair price!
      I will use this company in the future and I would recommend you give them a call.

      TrenchFree did a superb job of installing a new water main line without breaking an inch of my concrete. The task was complicated and the opening at the front of the house was quite small. Yet they didn't touch any concrete at all.

      They were very confident from the get go about handling this task easily. Their price was the lowest amongst 3 quotes that I got and it was completed in just a day. The main line was of copper and no joint whatsoever underground. From the meter to the main entrance, one single pipe.

      Highly recommend them. They have the right people & machines to get the job done. They were very thorough in ensuring the sewer line wasn't impacted due to the underground drilling. They put a camera from the sewer vent on the top of the house, all the way until the cleanout to ensure nothing was impacted.

      Their foreman Armanda was excellent to work with. And Antonio made the process very smooth from the quote to completion.

      Oh also, they were very helpful & prompt in setting up a temporary water main within an hour of me detecting a massive leak. They came in after hours and got the job done quickly to ensure we had a water in the house.

      I hired Carlos and his crew to replace my old sewer lateral. For a week I had problems with sewage backup at my home. Paid a few plumbers to hydrojet the line and report all clear. After the line continued to backup I got a few inspections and quotes. Found out my line was made out of Orangeburg pipe and was deteriorated. Trench free came in at the best price for pipebursting and replacement. It took a couple of weeks for his crew to come and do the job. In between the wait the line clogged again. Carlos as promised sent a tech to hydrojet and clear the line for me for free while waiting for the replacement. His crew did an excellent job and I have had no further issues with my line. He even modified the original quote to reduce the cost after his team decided it was unnecessary to replace my old clean out. Thanks Trenchfree!

      We got a bid from them, the person who provided the bid was knowledgeable and friendly but their bid came in 300% higher than any of the other bids (we got 5 others). I ensured the materials were the same so 300% higher made no sense at all. We got the work done for a lot less cost with a very high quality contractor. The pricing was just ludicrous.
