TOTAL UC CREW: EXPERTISE IN GAS LINE INSPECTION
At Total UC, our team employs state-of-the-art, remote-controlled camera technology to meticulously inspect gas lines. This process is essential for identifying areas that may require repair or replacement, ensuring that any intervention is precise and effective. We thoroughly evaluate the condition of gas lines, along with related structures such as manholes, catch basins, and connections.
THE PERILS OF AGING INFRASTRUCTURE
Many gas pipes in California have been in service for over a century. Over time, these pipes weaken due to wear and tear. Disruption caused by nearby underground activities, including PG&E installations, can exacerbate these issues. Our engineers use advanced diagnostic tools to pinpoint weakened sections of the gas lines and recommend appropriate solutions. We focus on fixing minor issues before they escalate into major hazards.
TREE ROOTS: A HIDDEN THREAT
The roots of trees, while vital to our environment, can pose hidden threats to underground gas lines. Our experts utilize underground camera technology to identify roots that could interfere with gas and electrical lines. Early detection of these issues is key to preventing potential disasters.
INSPECTION OF JOINTS: PREVENTING FAILURES
Over years of service, the joints in gas lines can become susceptible to failure. Regular inspection is vital to assess their condition and replace those that are compromised. Though replacement can be time-consuming and costly, it's essential for maintaining safety. Neglected joints can lead to severe consequences, including fires, explosions, or gas leaks.
What People’s Say
Reviews
I met Joe from Total Underground Construction when my neighbor was having all her pipes replaced. He was friendly and professional. I kept his number just in case I would need help in the future. That day came this week! My landlords handyman had tried to replace my corroded PVC that was leaking. It caused a host of problems with the water pressure in the house. I called Joe and he was at my house within 20 minutes! He was able to fix the problem and explain what was going on with great knowledge. He even followed up the next day to confirm things were back to normal. Highly recommend!!

I had a leak under my house and Joe came out within hours of me reaching out. They recommended I replace the galvanized pipes and they had the job done within 24 hours. Him and his team were very professional and spotted some other issues that needed attention along the way. They have a lot of experience and let me know what was happening every step of the way.

Joe is a rare breed and someone that you feel thankful that you met! I requested a quote for some plumbing that needed to be fixed and Joe came out, addressed the problems, and helped us fix leaks in the plumbing. I couldn't recommend him enough to anyone who needs underground construction or plumbing work on their home.
Thank you again for everything and the advice and help you shared.
