Traditional open-trench methods usually involve digging up your yard.

 

THE PROBLEM

On an international scale, water, sewer, gas, and other utilities are in need of replacement. Most are located in congested urban areas, under buildings, roadways or expensive landscape and are surrounded by other utilities. Replacement by traditional open-trench methods is often not desirable, or even viable.

SOME COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH TRADITIONAL OPEN-TRENCH METHODS

  • Pavement saw-cutting
  • Excavation to lawns or building foundations
  • Trucking spoil and dump fees
  • Concrete or asphalt
  • Landscape reinstatement - restoration
  • Tree Removal and Traffic control

THE SOLUTION: PORTABLE PIPE BURSTING

  • Installs a new pipe
  • Eliminates up to 85% of excavation
  • Damage prevention: Follows the path of the existing utility reducing risks of utility strikes
  • Ability to increase pipe size
  • Reduced landscape disruption
  • Allows business to keep in operation and less relocation of equipment
  • Often more cost effective
  • Proven technology
