Single-family residence - Trenchless Sewer replacement

[Ben Barngrover]

Investment Info:

Single-family residence in Tempe AZ with old deteriorating cast iron sewer pipe. 

This project required the complete replacement of the sewer system under the home and from the home to the city tap in the alley.
We completed this project with (2) holes in the back yard and 2 holes inside the home (bathroom and laundry). We used the trenchless Pipe Bursting method to pull the new sewer piping through the existing cast iron which has deteriorated over the years.
