Looking at the project before excavation begins reveals trees, brush and junk obstructing the alley.
The crew moves in and excavates the old sewer by tractor, then by hand.
The old pipe is manually removed.
The old clay pipe is cracked and broken by trees roots over the years.
Out with the old and in with the new.
The new PVC pipe is much more effective to stop root intrusion and unwanted rain water infiltration.
Once the pipe is in place and backfilled the Site Crew moves in and smooths things out.
A new membrane is laid down to block brush and weed growth.
And a good solid base material installed to make the alley accessable at all times.
