Pipe Repair Before Landscaping or Pool Projects, explained.
Putting a pool, a patio or a retaining wall on top of an old sewer line is a gamble. If the pipe fails after the project, repairing it can mean cutting into the new work. A better order is to inspect the pipe first, repair what needs repairing and then build.
We locate and camera the line, record where it runs and its condition, and mark it on the surface so your designer and contractor can plan around it. If the pipe needs work, trenchless lining can be done before construction, with no impact on the site that is about to change anyway. If the pipe is in good shape, you have a clear record and peace of mind.

Is it worth inspecting before a pool?
Many owners say yes, since a failure afterward means cutting into expensive new work.
Will you coordinate with my contractor?
We can share marks, depth and video with your designer or builder.
Does the pipe have to be moved?
Sometimes a route change is the best choice. We explain when a short reroute makes more sense than building over the line.
