Elgin, IL Trenchless Sewer Replacement

The first that needs to get established with any customer or any caller is that a sewer inspection needs to be done on every sewer. This involves running a sewer camera video down the pipe and allows the pipe’s problems to be exposed to both the tech and the customer. Sometimes customers call in and feel that they know what exactly is going on and that a sewer video camera is not important for the trenchless sewer replacement in Elgin. However, the shape of the interior of the pipe and the understanding of the interior pipe is the most important part to the sewer lining process. Recently a tech took a call from a customer in Elgin who felt they had enough knowledge of sewer pipe lining to give the condition and the specs to the tech without the need of sewer camera inspection. The tech explained to the customer that a sewer camera inspection was mandatory and that was needed to quote the job. After much debate, the tech agreed to have the sewer inspected for FREE. Ultimately, how could the customer argue with that, a FREE sewer inspection is a hard thing to pass up no matter how well versed with you sewer situation.

What the tech discovered was the sewer pipe was disconnected and what the customer was probably seeing was dirt backed up into the line. The customer agreed it was probably dirt he was seeing and not roots after all. They agree to do a sewer pipe lining and was able to fully rehabilitate the sewer pipe back to its original working condition.
