200 Feet of Failing Sewer Pipe Restored Without Excavation
When a school district west of Chicago reached out to us with concerns about the sewer system at their bus depot, we knew the job required the highest level of expertise. We dispatched our most experienced technicians to conduct a thorough video camera inspection of the existing sewer line.
The Challenge: Sewer System Failure Risk at School Depot Discovered During Inspection
The district reported concerns about the performance of the sewer system beneath their transportation facility. We conducted a comprehensive video camera inspection that uncovered:
- Severely deteriorated pipes
- Large sections of missing pipe
- Channeling along the sewer line’s base
- A high risk of total failure without immediate repair
Excavating beneath the facility’s flooring would have been time-consuming, costly, and disruptive to daily school operations.

Our Solution: Trenchless Pipe Lining Chosen to Avoid Excavation and Disruption
After analyzing the inspection results, we recommended a trenchless pipe lining solution as a cost-effective alternative to full pipe replacement. The school board approved the proposal, and our team got to work.
Project Highlights
- 200 feet of deteriorated sewer pipe successfully restored with trenchless lining
- Descaling and precision cleaning are completed before installation
- Zero excavation required—preserving the existing structure and minimizing downtime
- Efficient and durable results with minimal impact on school operations
The Outcome: Minimized Downtime & Long-Term Results with Trenchless Technology
This project demonstrates how trenchless technology can solve major sewer issues efficiently and affordably, even in complex environments. Our no-dig solution allowed the school to avoid unnecessary demolition while restoring full functionality to the sewer system.
