Careful Digging, Lasting Repairs

Some pipes are past saving with a liner. A fully collapsed sewer line, a badly offset joint or a major leak under your slab needs direct access. That means excavation, and the difference between a good dig and a bad one shows up in your yard, your floors and your final bill.

YLP Plumbing handles exterior trenching and interior slab work from start to finish. We locate underground utilities before we break ground, dig only where we need to, repair or replace the pipe to code and restore the area. You’ll know the plan and the price before the first shovel goes in.

Warning Signs

When Excavation Is the Right Call

Collapsed sewer line

The camera can’t pass and lining isn’t possible.

Major slab leak

Water leaking under your foundation.

New line installation

Adding or rerouting sewer or water lines.

Failed previous repair

A patch that didn’t hold.

Code-required replacement

During remodels or additions.

YLP helped us out on multiple occasions. From their home inspections before we purchased our new home in 2025 to the water heaters we needed replaced and the drain clearing we needed. Its been a wonderful experience every single time. Richard and the office treat us like family, always punctual and professional.

YLP Plumbing is the best choice for all your plumbing needs across the pasedena area. I had Richard come out and do an assessment for my father in laws house and he gave an amazing diagnosis with a great price and they did the job the same day. I highly recommend YLP. btw they have a lot of reviews on Yelp, thats where i found them.

I recently had my entire house repiped, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! Richard was professional, punctual, and extremely knowledgeable throughout the whole process. They explained everything clearly, worked efficiently, and made sure my home was clean after each day of work. The water pressure is amazing now, and it feels great knowing my plumbing system is brand new and built to last. Finding someone this reliable and skilled is rare—I highly recommend YLP plumbing to anyone needing repiping or any plumbing work done right the first time!

Drain Cleaning FAQs

What's the difference between snaking and hydro jetting?
Snaking uses a rotating cable to break through a clog. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the whole inside of the pipe. Snaking is great for simple clogs. Jetting is better for grease, scale and roots.
We don’t recommend them. They often fail on real clogs, and repeated use can damage older pipes and seals.
Repeat clogs usually point to a bigger issue like grease buildup, roots, a sag in the line or a broken pipe. A camera inspection shows us exactly what’s happening.
We’re open 24 hours Monday to Saturday. Call and we’ll give you an arrival window right away.
Yes. We clear kitchen lines, restroom drains and floor drains for restaurants, offices and multi-unit buildings.
