A Trenchless-Only Sewer Contractor — Not a General Plumber With a Liner Truck
Most Columbus plumbing contractors offer trenchless repair as a sideline. Wooley Water Sewer Trenchless was built around it. We are Perma-Liner Authorized Installers for CIPP pipe lining and certified operators of Pow-R Mole pipe-bursting equipment — every crew is trained on CIPP installation (ASTM F1216), pipe bursting (ASTM F1962), hydro jetting at 3,000–4,000 PSI, and NASSCO PACP video inspection.
What that means for you: the technician who scopes your lateral is the same technician who lines it, bursts it, or jets it clean. Diagnosis and repair aren’t handed off between companies. The recommendation you get is the method the pipe actually needs — not whichever method a single-method specialist has to sell.
Hydro Jetting & Drain Cleaning
4,000+ PSI truck-mounted hydro jetting for grease lines, scaled cast iron, root-choked laterals, and recurring residential blockages. Every standard job includes pre- and post-service camera verification so the customer has proof of work, and restaurant maintenance contracts come with calendar reminders so FOG compliance is never the operator’s problem to track.

Why Homeowners Call Wooley
47 years in business (est. 1978). 73 Google reviews at a 4.9 average. Thousands of Central Ohio lateral repairs. Three city trade licences on file: Columbus, Bexley, and Upper Arlington. Family-owned across two generations — founder Eric Wooley (Vietnam veteran, former truck driver, founded the business in Pickerington in 1978) and current owner-operator Heath Wooley (joined 1992).
Family-Owned Since 1978
One of the longest-operating trenchless contractors in Central Ohio, with multi-generational technical knowledge of Columbus-metro housing stock — clay-tile failure patterns in pre-1930 homes, Orangeburg collapse timing in 1950s–60s subdivisions, cast iron scale and corrosion in the 1970s–80s belt, and early PVC joint issues in 1980s–90s developments.
Full In-House Trenchless Capability
CIPP lining, pipe bursting, hydro jetting, and PACP-NASSCO-coded camera inspection — every service performed by in-house crews on owned equipment. No core repair work is subcontracted. This is unusual in the Columbus market; most competitors sub out at least one of these methods.
Camera-Verified Close-Out on Every Lateral Job
Every repair ends with a PACP-coded video that homeowners, buyers, inspectors, and permitting authorities can use as permanent documentation. You are not paying for work you can’t see — you are paying for a repair you can hand to the next party who asks.
Backed Up Again? The Lateral Itself Is Probably Failing.
When the basement floor drain backs up for the second or third time in 90 days — and snaking keeps buying you another week — the lateral itself is failing. Root intrusion at the clay joints. A bellied section in the cast iron. A collapsing Orangeburg run from the 1960s. Those are not snake problems; they are trenchless repair problems.
Call (614) 426-0078 for a same-day sewer camera inspection. We’ll tell you exactly what the pipe is doing, give you a written estimate for the right repair method, and — in most Central Ohio neighbourhoods — have you running again without a trench across your yard.
