Only two holes are made for this kind of repair. These holes are entry points. One is made by the street; he other is made where the pipe exits your home. A steel cable with a special head attached is pulled through your sewer line using hydraulics. This cable pulls through the new pipe lining or pipe replacement. After the connections are made and checked for integrity, all that is left to do is fill in the holes.
This kind of repair runs about $150 per foot. In most cases, it will be less than the other way. This is because the homeowners do not have to pay for replacing sidewalk, driveway and other features. The damage done to the yard is much less.
