Hillside lots, heavy tree cover and old terra cotta: a familiar Glendale combination. TSR replaced 96 feet of root-damaged pipe with fused HDPE by pipe bursting.
Glendale's hillside neighborhoods are green, which is exactly the problem for old clay and cast iron sewers: roots follow the moisture into every joint. This homeowner was getting the seasonal backups that come with it, worst in spring when root growth picks up.
The TSR technician had just completed a job on the same street and recognized the pattern before the camera confirmed it: root intrusion and cracking through the terra cotta run.
For a long, root-damaged run like this, TSR recommended pipe bursting over lining. A bursting head fractured the old clay while pulling a new 96-foot HDPE pipe into place. HDPE is jointless and the ends are heat-fused, so there is nowhere for roots to get back in. Two small access pits were restored when the work was done.
