Sewer Lines Under Mead Homes
Most Mead homes have basements, so the sewer line leaves below the floor and runs deep under the yard. Trenchless work avoids a long, deep trench.
What we run into in Mead
- Basement exits. Many homes here have basements, so the sewer line leaves below the floor and runs deep under the yard. A long, deep trench is exactly what trenchless avoids.
- Deep frost. Winter frost reaches well into the ground, which makes winter excavation slow. Lining and bursting need only small access points.

Call (833) 529-2616Sewer Line Failures We See Around Mead
When people phone about trenchless sewer line repair in Mead, CO, the line nearly always has one of these faults. Each has its own best method.
Roots in the line
Roots enter through cracked or loose joints and grow into a mat. They are cut out, then lining seals the joints.
Cracked or offset pipe
Cracks, holes and joints that have slipped out of line leak and snag waste. Lining covers them with new pipe.
Corroded or collapsing pipe
Cast iron scales and rots from inside, and Orangeburg flattens. Cast iron is often lined; Orangeburg is usually burst.
Clogs that keep coming back
If the line needs snaking every few months, something in the pipe, usually roots or a break, is catching waste.
Sewer smell outside
A smell near the cleanout or over the yard can mean a cracked pipe venting gas into the soil.
A dip in the yard or drive
Soil washing into a broken pipe can leave a depression or a small sinkhole above it.

Line It or Burst It? Deciding in Mead
Lining suits a pipe that still holds its shape: cracks, root entry, corrosion and small offsets. Bursting suits a pipe that is collapsed, flattened or too small, because it replaces the line rather than coating it.
Still unsure which way your line will go? Call (833) 529-2616 with the age of the house and what the drains are doing. You will hear what a camera inspection is likely to show before anyone comes out.

Mead Homes by the Numbers
Only about 2% of homes in Mead were built before 1950, so most laterals here are later materials, which tend to fail at joints and connections or from roots and ground movement rather than from old clay. Another 4% were built between 1950 and 1979, a stretch when cast iron, clay and fiber (Orangeburg) laterals were all still in use, and the median home overall dates from 2003. About 97% of homes are single-family and 94% are owner-occupied; the lateral from the building to the city connection is generally the owner's responsibility, so the repair-or-replace decision is usually theirs.
With about 5,503 residents on roughly 15 square miles (near 356 per square mile), Mead is rural to small-town in density, with large lots and long runs. It is number 48 by population of the 111 Colorado places on our service list.
