Ellingson worked with general contractor AP & Sons on a pipe bursting project that tallied over 2,000 ft. of 10” Truss Pipe upsized to 16” HDPE. DIPs Gravity Sanitary Sewer. Bore length/runs averaged 400-450 feet a piece, and we averaged about one run per day.
Pipe bursting is a cost-effective and efficient method for replacing underground pipes without the need for extensive excavation. In Watertown, SD, this technology has been utilized to upgrade aging infrastructure and improve the overall reliability of the water and wastewater systems. By bursting the existing pipe and pulling a new pipe through the same path, disruptions to the surrounding area are minimized, making it an ideal solution for urban environments.
Additionally, pipe bursting in Watertown, SD allows for the upsizing of pipes, increasing capacity and reducing the risk of future blockages or failures. This can lead to improved flow rates, reduced maintenance costs, and a longer lifespan for the new pipes. With Ellingson's expertise in pipe bursting projects, residents and businesses in Watertown can benefit from a more resilient and sustainable underground utility system.
