Damage to underground utilities can have serious consequences, including service disruptions, safety hazards, environmental contamination, and costly repairs. Fortunately, Federal EC offers top-notch underground pipe rehabilitation in Charlotte, NC. Here are some examples of underground utility damage that we come across.
Oil or Chemical Pipeline Leaks
Accidental damage to underground oil or chemical pipelines can cause environmental contamination, soil and water pollution, health risks, and costly cleanup efforts.
Gas Leaks
Accidental damage to gas lines can result in leaks, leading to fire or explosion hazards. Gas leaks are particularly dangerous due to the risk of asphyxiation or ignition, which is why underground utility construction contractors should take extra care in installing gas lines.
Electrical Cable Damage
Digging into underground electrical cables can cause power outages, electrical fires, and electrocution hazards. It may also disrupt essential services and infrastructure.
Water Main Breaks
Damage to water mains can result in water supply disruptions, flooding, property damage, and contamination of drinking water. It can also lead to soil erosion and sinkholes. Methods like CIPP pipe lining can be utilized on water mains to prevent water main breaks.
Telecommunication Cable Breaks
Cutting telecommunication cables can disrupt communication networks, including telephone, internet, and television services. This can affect businesses, emergency services, and individuals relying on these services.
Steam Pipe Leaks
Damage to underground steam pipes can lead to leaks, resulting in steam release, burns, property damage, and disruption of heating systems.
Sewer Pipe Damage
Accidental damage to sewer lines can cause sewage backups, environmental pollution, foul odors, and health risks due to exposure to pathogens and contaminants. Sewer pipes rehabilitated via trenchless pipe lining are durable and can last 50 more years.
Fiber Optic Cable Cuts
Damage to fiber optic cables can disrupt internet connectivity, data transmission, and communication systems, impacting businesses, emergency services, and individuals dependent on these services.
Propane or Other Fuel Tank Ruptures
Damage to underground fuel tanks can lead to leaks, fire hazards, environmental contamination, and health risks from exposure to toxic substances.
Stormwater Drainage System Damage
Damage to stormwater drainage systems can result in flooding, erosion, property damage, and water pollution, impacting communities and ecosystems. Routine storm drain rehabilitation practices must be observed.
