Pelican Underground is headquartered in New Orleans, Louisiana, and provides trenchless sewer repair, CIPP pipe lining, pipe bursting, sewer camera inspections, hydro jetting, vertical stack lining, and industrial drain cleaning across the Gulf Coast. Our NASSCO-certified technicians — credentialed to PACP, MACP, and LACP standards — serve residential homeowners, commercial property owners, and municipalities throughout Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. When a sewer or drain problem strikes, our local crews respond quickly because we already know your area, your infrastructure, and the ground your pipes are buried in. Call (504) 387-9909 for a free estimate.
No two markets we serve put the same stress on a sewer line. The Gulf Coast sits on some of the most challenging ground in the country — soft river-delta deposits, highly expansive clay, organic peat, and shifting coastal sand — and each one fails pipes differently. A method that’s right for sandy soil near the water can be the wrong call over expansive clay further inland. That’s why we tailor every diagnosis and trenchless repair to the specific conditions in your city instead of applying a one-size-fits-all fix.
Pelican Underground is based in New Orleans and provides trenchless sewer repair, CIPP pipe lining, vertical stack lining, hydro jetting, and industrial drain cleaning throughout Louisiana. Our Louisiana service area covers New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Lafayette, Lake Charles, Covington, Slidell, Houma, and Alexandria, including the surrounding parishes. Response is anchored out of Greater New Orleans, with same-day coverage across the metro and Northshore and scheduled service to outlying parishes.
Soil and pipe conditions: Most of South Louisiana rests on Mississippi River delta deposits — a layered mix of soft organic peat, clay, and silt sitting over a high water table. As these soils drain and dry, they compact and sink, a process called subsidence that drags on buried sewer laterals and pulls pipe joints apart. New Orleans alone spends tens of millions of dollars a year on water and sewer line repairs tied to this ground movement. Older neighborhoods also still run on vitrified clay and cast iron pipe prone to cracking and root intrusion. Trenchless CIPP lining and pipe bursting are ideal here because they rehabilitate or replace a failing line without excavating unstable, water-logged ground.
Pelican Underground serves trenchless sewer and pipe lining clients throughout Mississippi, including the Jackson Metro area and Gulf Coast communities. Our Mississippi service area covers Madison, Ridgeland, Oxford, Starkville, Southaven, Ocean Springs, Tupelo, Biloxi, and Gulfport. Crews are dispatched with priority emergency response, and we’re licensed by the Mississippi State Board of Contractors.
Soil and pipe conditions: Central Mississippi, including the Jackson Metro, sits on Yazoo clay — one of the most expansive soils in the United States. It swells with force when wet and contracts hard when dry, and that shrink-swell cycle cracks foundations, heaves roads, and pulls pipe joints apart; a 2024 federal investigation tied separated underground utility pipes in Jackson directly to this clay. Along the Gulf Coast in Biloxi, Gulfport, and Ocean Springs, sandy soils and a high water table create the opposite problem, with storm surge and saltwater adding corrosion risk. We match the trenchless method — lining for clay-stressed joints, bursting for fully deteriorated lines — to whichever condition your property faces.
Pelican Underground serves Mobile and Gulf Shores, Alabama with the same trenchless sewer repair and CIPP lining services available in Louisiana and Mississippi. We’re licensed and bonded to operate in Alabama, with priority response for coastal emergencies.
Soil and pipe conditions: Coastal Alabama around Mobile Bay and Gulf Shores is dominated by sandy soils with a high water table, frequent heavy rain, and hurricane-driven storm surge. Saturated, shifting sand and salt exposure accelerate pipe corrosion and joint failure, while expansive clays appear in pockets further inland. Trenchless repair keeps excavation — and the flooding risk that comes with digging in saturated coastal ground — to a minimum.
