About Our Chicago Sewer & Air Duct Repair - Trenchless Innovations
After being in the sewer industry for over 20 years John & Kevin Reid owners of Reid & Pederson Drainage saw the growing need for trenchless sewer repair. Due to the aging sewer infrastructure there was a need for more sewers to be repaired or replaced due to root intrusion and structural deterioration. The traditional method of digging for sewer repairs can be costly, destroy landscaping and property and due to underground utilities be dangerous. In 2002 Trenchless Innovations was formed to provide their customers with a safe, long lasting alternative with little or no disruption to their home and property.
Since then Trenchless Innovations has serviced a wide variety of clients ranging from residential, commercial and municipal around the Chicagoland area. Thousands of feet of aging sewer lines have been repaired and rehabilitated without the need for digging saving our customers time and money.
In 2009 Trenchless Innovations branched out from the sewer industry to address another growing need for trenchless repair in the heating and air conditioning industry. Over time heat and air ducts installed under slab floors begin to decay allowing unseen contaminants to enter a homeowners heating system. Our innovative process involves the coating and sealing of inground air ducts directly through the registers which quickly corrects the problems of moldy or corroded air ducts. Air duct lining will completely restore your ductwork and promote healthy air quality in your home.
Trenchless Innovations is always on the cutting edge of technology and uses state of the art equipment and materials from the best possible suppliers. Each and every job is managed from start to finish by our technical and management staff to ensure complete customer satisfaction.
