FAQs
How does this benefit me? These improvements are necessary to improve sections of deteriorated sewers.
What is involved with this type of construction? Cured-in-Place-Pipe (CIPP) lining avoids expensive and disruptive excavation by inserting a flexible tube into the sewer, which is then expanded outward to the wall of the existing pipe. This creates a water-tight, smooth-surfaced, long-lasting (50-year design life) pipe within the old sewer. The new pipe will provide a smooth surface (to help flow), structural integrity, and longevity.
The lining process is accomplished by these steps:
1. The sewers are cleaned and televised to ensure that it is clear of debris.
2. Affected properties are notified to limit water usage during the lining and curing process. As the liner is inserted and cured, services to the sewer is temporarily blocked. Once the liner has cured, services are reinstated.
3. The contractor re-televises the sewer to review the quality of the installation and to ensure that all services have been reinstated.
Will my road be closed? Roadway closures are not anticipated. However, short-term one-way traffic may be necessary.
If my driveway is inaccessible where do I park? If this situation arises, residents will be advised to use nearby on-street parking.
Will my water or sewer service be affected? The contractor will post door hangers 24 hours in advance of construction to notify residents whose homes will be affected by the sewer lining work. Residents will be asked to limit the usage of toilet facilities, and refrain from doing laundry for a period of no longer than 8 hours. If work is rescheduled, another door hanger notification will be issued. Notification will also be given through the Village’s Notify Me application.
Any other important details? Residents should pour a gallon of water into each basement floor drain to ensure that the traps are full. This will help to prevent sewer odors from entering the home. Please also keep toilet lids closed. If a back-up should occur, contact Public Works at 630-620-5740. After hours, contact the Police Department at (630) 873-4400.
