Our Sewer Lateral Replacement Services
Compromised sewer laterals are hazardous to you and your community due to inflows and infiltration into the city’s main sewer line. We provide comprehensive replacement solutions in compliance with the state’s plumbing code for outdated infrastructure.
Sewer Lateral Video Inspections
We conduct trenchless inspections on sewer laterals, accessing the line through the cleanout. Our industry-grade cameras transmit high-quality videos, enabling our in-house contractors to know the damage extent and develop replacement solutions. We prioritize the safety of your property and adjacent infrastructure and utility lines. Therefore, we employ utmost caution in our due diligence process to yield useful results. Our contractors use the transmitted videos to diagnose and develop replacement techniques suitable for your property.
Trenchless Sewer Lateral Installation
San Mateo has diverse settings, from downtown’s concrete jungle to the leafy suburbs in Baywood, Parkview, and College Park. Each area requires situation-specific installation solutions. We use our inspection findings to determine which installation techniques are ideal for every location. We have plenty of minimally invasive solutions, from the trenchless pipe bursting technique to the cured-in-place pipe lining (CIPP), hydraulic fracturing, and directional drilling. We prioritize environmental preservation and conservation in all our endeavors.
Traditional Sewer Lateral Installation
We also perform the traditional excavation method when the conditions around your property are ideal. Our contractors are certified engineers, assessing your property before digging the trench to access the sewer lateral to ensure minimal damage. We also backfill the trench, compact the soil, and pave any broken slabs, restoring the landscape to its original shape. Our contractors use their extensive experience and expertise to determine projects that benefit from the excavation technique. Leverage our engineering expertise in your sewer lateral project today.
Emergency Sewer Lateral Replacement
Have you encountered a sewer lateral collapse, root intrusion, or damage due to a natural disaster that obstructed wastewater flow? Lateral sewer line emergencies are not uncommon. Our contractors are always on hold to intervene in emergencies. We understand the time sensitivity surrounding sudden lateral sewer problems. The spilling wastewater is hazardous to you and the surrounding community. We mitigate such risks by providing quick solutions to arrest the damage before it harms lives and destroys the environment. Our proximity to you also expedites the process.
Sewer Lateral Testing Services
We complete every lateral sewer replacement in San Mateo by testing the pipe to ascertain its efficiency. We conduct tests to measure flow rate, pressure stability, and the effectiveness of the connection. The tests help us to identify leakages, structural damage, loose connectivity, or blockages. Our intervention is complete when we have proof that the sewer lateral functions optimally. We then clean the site, leaving it undisturbed as we found it. Our contractors remain professional throughout the entire process, focusing on the replacement process while minding the surrounding utility lines and infrastructure.

WHAT PEOPLE’S SAY
REVIEWS
- DeAnna A.
4/05/2023I had a system that needed to be disassembled and sent back to the manufacturer for service. I was no longer on good terms with my installer. Mark stepped in... read more and took on the challenge. I sent him the manual of the system and he was able to come down with one of his workers and disassemble my system and pack it for shipping back to the manufacturer. In all, a great experience. Mark is very knowledgeable and great to work with. Looking forward to having him reinstall my system once its is back from the manufacturer. I would whole heartedly recommend working with him.
12/04/2023Mark and his associate, Brian, absolutely saved us last Friday after an "emergency" plumber left us in the lurch.
Long story short, we had a clogged and... read more perpetually-running toilet, which meant that the bowl would fill up and risk overflowing, so once an hour, all night long, I set an alarm and went to go manually empty the toilet with a bucket. By 645am, on 45min of sleep, I was DONE. I sent out a desperate message on Yelp. Mark replied in 10min. By 7am, we had a plan.
Allowing for travel time and parts acquisition (better to get stuff in advance and show up slightly later than show up earlier, only to have to go back out for a part), they showed up at 9am, and our "little toilet problem" had revealed itself to be a "big clog problem", with our tub backing up, and water leaking from the living room ceiling downstairs AND the garage ceiling. But they fixed it all! Toilet valve was fixed, so it no longer perpetually runs, the clog has been eliminated, and the leaks stopped.
A problem like this is par for the course with a plumber. Having said that, there are two distinct points I should make to really highlight why Capri Engineering is special:
1. Mark explained everything to me, step by step, clearly and professionally--not just what the problem was and how it would be fixed, but he also taught me some basic plumbing preventative measures, WITHOUT patronizing me. As a woman, this is actually really important.
2. Capri isn't just plumbing, they do it ALL. Our ceiling is, miraculously, generally ok, but if it wasn't, they'd be able to come back and repair it just as easily as the plumbing.
Think of Capri Engineering as a general contractor--i.e., someone who handles plumbing AND electrical AND construnction--who happens to respond to emergency calls. Now, think of how many companies you know who actually do that. You usually get one or the other, but not both, unless they're limited to one kind of service. That's what makes Capri so special: they're a one-stop shop that ACTUALLY gets the job done. ALL the jobs, in fact.

Contacted Mark the owner to replace an outdoor pvc system near my pool house with copper so it lasts and also replace a faulty house shutoff valve. He... read more and his team provided an excellent and reasonable quote and timing for services and did an outstanding job. Highly reliable / flexible and excellent communicator!
9/28/2023Great guys. Very quick response. Did great work, scoped the pipes, used video to show me the issue in the pipes. Cleaned up afterwards. Trustworthy. Will use them again!
4/03/2023I had the best experience with Capri Engineering. I had an emergency with a leaking toilet and needed a replacement asap, and Mark responded very quickly, came within a few... read more hours with a new toilet and installed it quickly, I was saved! Not to mention their price is very reasonable. I'm so glad I found them, I will definitely be using their services again in the future! Thanks Mark!

We got multiple quotes and also scheduled consultation with other business on yelp, Mark's team is professional and did a great job!
12/12/2023We were surprised when Capri was the first to respond, since it seemed like a faucet replacement might be too small a job. They showed up right on time and... read more stuck by their estimate even though the job turned out to be a lot more complicated than anyone thought. We were very satisfied; definitely will use them again when needed!
