Matt and his team did a fantastic job. Matt was quick with a visit to do the estimate for our sewer lateral replacement and explained the work very clearly. Their bid was the lowest of several we looked into so we went with them. The job itself went very smoothly, everything except the inspection by the city was done in one day. The crew was very polite, wore masks while communicating with us, and did a great job of cleaning up after their work. They were careful to avoid irrigation and heating lines that ran next through their work area. In areas where they had to dig, soil and plants were replaced very carefully after the work was done. Inspection was the next morning and there were no problems at all. Highly recommended!

This was the hardest working crew we have had the pleasure to work with. They worked fast and efficiently, like a well run restaurant, everyone was moving doing their job.
The efficiency and competence in which they did their task was worth the price, which was fair and honest. John managed the project mostly from offsite because of another commitment but he was always available by phone to answer questions in the friendliest of terms and he efficiently managed his crew. Replacing a lateral sewer is not much fun. But these are the guys to use if you have to do it!

We had a great experience and could not be happier. Nice people, hard working, and professional. Well priced too. Call them. Problem solved.

The team from Gopher-It possess all the elements of a good business: great communication, speedy completion of the task, flexibility, and fair price. If you are experiencing sewer issues. I would highly recommend getting in touch with Gopher-It! They are the best: completed all work quickly, made sure permits were taken care of, and actually left our yard in better condition than before the work started!

Amazing Company. Thank you Matt for being so knowledgeable and you had sophisticated equipment and gave us good news. We don't need anything done. We had rescue rooter tell us we had 19,000 dollars of work to be done. We are seniors, but not stupid. Thanks to the expertise of Gopher it, we saved lots of money.

Used them first at my HOUSE for a straight forward sewer lateral replacement. Great fast job at a good price!

Then a bigger, more complex job: A HISTORIC COMMERCIAL BUILDING in downtown San Rafael.
Matt was the only guy who gave us the GREAT ADVICE that, while we have a 7' deep hole open in the sidewalk anyway for the lateral work to the city main, it would be very cost efficient to have them replace the part of the 100 year old sewer that is underground under the business' floor, or we would have to pay later again to have that same excavation done in the sidewalk.
Didn't even expect that that was even possible to do with their system.
And by being creative, smart, capable and caring they didn't have to open the tile floor IN the cafe but came with the pipe through the back of the cafe, 135' AWAY!!!....
Talking about going the extra mile!
Then they came across an unexpected problem in the crawl space, and here I could experience their determination : by simply not giving up, and working really hard in very hard circumstances, in this tight crawlspace, they finished that day!
Here is the thing: The cafe STAYED OPEN throughout both days from 7am till 10 pm and we had NO REVENUE LOSS whatsoever!
Matt, Ivan, Alejandro, Omar, Sergio and the others: YOU GUYS ROCK!!!

These guys replaced our sewer lateral a few years ago. They were reasonably priced, showed up on time, handled all the permits and were great communicators. I wish more contractors were like Matt and his team.

These guys know their business inside out and if you have a complicated situation they are the creative ones who are not going to back down and they'll find you the solution and then execute it beautifully. This because they have a team that loves their job and it shows. I had contacted Amesos plumbing who basically told me the job was too complicated for them and to go find somebody else. I had contacted Trenchless Titan who never gotten back to me. But John found the solution and made it happen skillfully. My front yard looks great most of it being done Trenchless. I couldn't be more satisfied. For sewer lateral issues go no further they are the masters by far.

After a truly unfortunate episode with Rescue Rooter of San Leandro, we called Matt of Gopher-It, who was recommended to us by another plumber who was too busy to take our job.
We had a 100 year old sewer later that had a 100 year old tree on top of it - extensive root damage
Matt did a thorough job with the camera, and explained all our options. He started by saying the tree might need to come out, but probably not.
He said we could just have the roots removed, and we'd be good for several years.
He was extremely knowledgeable about local ordinances, and began by recording a DVD of the damage, to help us with the $1500.00 rebate we didn't know about.
Gopher-It put in our new sewer lateral in less than two days. The tree didn't need to come out. They left our front yard looking nicer than it had before they'd excavated (we got free weeding! :) ).

I would recommend Gopher-It to anyone.

I was recommended to Matt at Gopher-It Trenchless by our realtor when we unexpectedly encountered a block in the sewer main right after moving in. We had gotten a recommendation from Roto-Rooter to snake and install a main clean-out, but wanted to determine if we needed to replace a portion or all of the sewer lateral itself. Matt asked a bunch of questions over the phone and then said he'd come by to take a look that day. He viewed the video of our sewage line and after careful examination told us it was in good shape and didn't need to be replaced. He also located our original clean out (which Roto-Rooter hadn't been able to find), and offered additional information we could use when snaking the line, which ended up saving us money. While we ended up not needing Matt's services (per his recommendation), I can't recommend him highly enough. When and if we do need our sewer line replaced, he'll be the only call we make. Not only is he knowledgeable and skilled in the field, but he's honest.
