How East Tennessee Hills and Clay Soil Affect Your Pipes

The ground in the Knoxville area is not uniform, and neither are the problems it causes underground.

Clay soil

Clay swells when wet and shrinks when dry, shifting pipes and opening joints.

Hills and slopes

Sloped lots mean steeper pipe runs, harder access and retaining walls that make trenching costly.

Rock

Shallow rock slows excavation. Trenchless methods can avoid much of it.

Groundwater and floods

Near rivers and lakes, high groundwater can enter open joints.
