What If Reticulation Breaks Under Concrete?

We fix it!

Yeah it can be tricky and occasionally you need to cut the concrete, but where possible we try to reach under and make a connection.

Here’s one I did recently.

The poly retic has come apart about 150mm under the concrete and there was a retaining wall on the other side of the area.

So I ran the station and blew out some sand from under the concrete. I reached under and added a piece of poly which I joined with the broken piece.

It worked but below is a pic of my hands later than day!

Pretty beaten up – so it isn’t what I want to do every day, but we do try to fix it where we can.
