Recommended Customer Reviews

TrenchFree is a wonderful company that does top quality work. I was building a ADU on my property in Redwood City, CA & I hired TrenchFree to dig the trench required by PG&E in order to relocate our natural gas line.
From the first time I met with the supervisor Carlos, when he came to do the project quote, to the end/completion of the project TrenchFree demonstrated great work ethic, attention to detail, and custom service. Even the business owner would check in with me to make sure everything was going well!!
Carlos & his team took great care of my property during the entire project. His workers were very respectuful & polite & would clean up the jobsite every day before they went home. I can not thank this company enough!! Job Well Done!!! Thank You TrenchFree!!

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.

We had Trench free replaced our 30+ years old water line as well as sewer line. Both were done professionally and did though cleaning afterwards. I would highly recommend their services.

They are very honest. Oscar came to my house to see plumbing and didn't find any plumbing issue. They didn't charge any visiting fees.

Antonio showed up within 45 minutes of my call to assess the water main break from meter to house. He wrote up a quote and within 2 hours Benjamin showed up to create a temporary bypass line to stop the water meter from spinning and costing me more $$$. They organized all the USA markings and came back a few days later. Benjamin and Arturo worked in concert to quickly, efficiently and very cleanly install a new line and conclude the work within 4 hours. Up and running and have not seen a better operation in a long time! Job well done and would certainly recommend TrenchFree to anyone else that is in need of these types of services.

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.

Very professional speedy and contact explaining the work done highly recommend to any property owner

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!

TrenchFree replaced my sewer line and drainage Fall 2022. Three months later, heavy rain hit bay area and my crawl space had water. Carlos came and evaluated the problem and promised me that they will fix it. They did in two weeks.
I worked with them a few days, they are friendly and hardworking crew. They come on time, quiet and clean up every day.
Carlos is such a nice person and easy to talk to. I also want to thank Hector, Jacob, Luis and other team members, for their professionalism and hard work.
I would highly recommend this company.

After two flooding incidents over Thanksgiving, I knew it was finally time to replace our old sewer lateral (damaged by roots from the city tree). I promptly gathered estimates from five different plumbers. Not only was this company the most competitive in price, they also had the endorsement of three real estate colleagues.
I was impressed by every person on the team from Carlos who conducted the initial site visit/estimate, to Antonio who coordinated/scheduled permits, to Hector, Chon, and crew who did the excavation/installation. Hardworking, knowledgeable, and tidy, they got the job done in two days! We passed inspection without issue. I highly recommend this professional team.
