Western Rooter has completed a major drainage reconstruction project at a well-known Glendale landmark, restoring a failed system at a historic property while preserving the surrounding structure and landscape. The project highlights increasing demand across Glendale, Burbank, Pasadena, and Los Angeles County for advanced drain repair and trenchless pipe rehabilitation in older properties.

The drainage system had deteriorated significantly over time. Crews discovered fractured clay pipes, heavy debris buildup, and a major design issue where a 12-inch branch line was improperly feeding into an 8-inch main line. This mismatch created ongoing flow problems and contributed to the system’s failure.

Western Rooter developed a solution that combined targeted excavation with trenchless technology to minimize disruption to the property. The team excavated key sections to access damaged areas, rebuilt the branch connection to correct the size transition, and repaired portions of the storm drain system to restore proper drainage across the site.

A major component of the project was the installation of 80 feet of Perma-Liner trenchless lining. This method reinforced the existing pipeline from within, creating a durable, jointless pipe without the need for full replacement. The liner comes with a 10-year warranty, providing long-term reliability for the property.

“Historic properties come with unique challenges, especially when you’re dealing with older clay pipe systems and outdated layouts,” said John, CEO of Western Rooter. “In this case, we had to correct a major connection issue and rebuild the system while protecting the integrity of the site. Trenchless lining allowed us to do that efficiently and with less impact.”

The completed work restored full functionality to the drainage and storm drain system, resolving long-standing issues and protecting the property from future water damage.

As many Glendale and San Fernando Valley properties continue to age, issues with clay sewer lines, storm drains, and outdated pipe configurations are becoming more common. Western Rooter continues to expand its services in Glendale and surrounding areas, offering trenchless sewer repair, Perma-Liner installation, hydro jetting, and full drainage system reconstruction.

Western Rooter provides free estimates for residential and commercial properties throughout Glendale, Burbank, Pasadena, and nearby communities.
