Numbers tell the story in Chester: spring snowmelt infiltrating aging sewer lines through cracks and root intrusion drives the majority of emergency restoration calls.
Chester, Montana experiences heavy spring snowmelt that can overwhelm outdated sewer systems. The region's clay soil and freezing temperatures contribute to pipe expansion and contraction, increasing the likelihood of cracks and root intrusion, which can lead to sewage backups during the thawing period.
