Transform Your School’s Infrastructure This Summer: Why Long Island Educational Institutions Are Choosing Strategic Pipe Lining Projects During Break

Summer break presents a golden opportunity for Long Island schools and universities to tackle critical infrastructure upgrades without disrupting the academic year. With fewer staff and students on campus, there is less of a concern about disrupting normal classes and other operations, and without having to worry about only working off-hours to not disrupt classes, students, and other campus activities, summer EHS projects can be completed faster. For educational institutions dealing with aging water and sewer systems, pipe lining has emerged as the preferred solution for comprehensive infrastructure renewal.

The Strategic Advantage of Summer Infrastructure Projects

Educational facilities face unique challenges when it comes to infrastructure maintenance. At a school or university there are hundreds, sometimes even thousands of people using the restrooms, sinks, and other fixtures everyday. If your school is having sewer, or water line problems you want them fixed quickly and correctly, without interrupting the everyday activities of the staff and students. This is precisely why summer break planning has become essential for Long Island’s educational institutions.

Traditional universities often utilise the summer break to conduct maintenance and renovation work on campus facilities. This period of relative quietude provides the perfect opportunity to enhance infrastructure, upgrade technology, and improve the overall learning environment for the upcoming academic year. The timing couldn’t be more perfect for pipe rehabilitation projects that require minimal disruption but maximum impact.

Why Pipe Lining is the Smart Choice for Educational Institutions

Modern pipe lining technology offers educational institutions a cost-effective alternative to traditional excavation methods. Typically installed from existing openings or access points such as manholes, basins, vaults, vents, and cleanouts, trenchless methods are fast, non-invasive, less costly, and an environmentally friendly means to restore existing infrastructure. Methods include: Cured-In-Place Pipe (CIPP), Epoxy lining, Spray-In-Place Pipe (SIPP), and Cast-In-Place Pipe.

The University of Pennsylvania provides an excellent example of successful summer pipe lining projects. All construction was to be performed during a six-week summer outage. The first high-rise, Harrison College House, was completed the summer of 2021, followed by Harnwell the summer of 2022, and most recently, the Rodin College House completed summer 2023. This project demonstrates how strategic summer planning allows for comprehensive infrastructure upgrades without academic disruption.

This comprehensive coverage ensures that schools and universities throughout Long Island can access professional pipe lining services when they need them most.

The Benefits of Trenchless Technology for Educational Campuses

Educational institutions benefit significantly from trenchless pipe lining technology. Trenchless technologies are non-invasive methods used for installing or repairing sewer lines without extensive digging. Benefits include: Minimal Disruption: Reduces the need for large-scale excavation, preserving landscaping and structures. Cost-Effective: Lowers restoration costs associated with traditional digging. Faster Completion: Projects can often be completed more quickly, reducing downtime.

These advantages are particularly important for educational campuses where preserving the aesthetic environment and maintaining accessibility are priorities. While most companies can offer quick services, they often involve tearing out walls, cutting up the floors, or large trenches on the grounds. We understand the importance of keeping the school or university running as smoothly as possible and with our trenchless repair and replacement options, such as pipe bursting and pipe lining, we are able to do that while keeping the learning environment in tact.

Planning Your Summer Pipe Lining Project

Successful summer infrastructure projects require careful planning and coordination. EHS teams can do more campus projects during summer break, saving time and money and allowing more summer EHS projects to be completed. Faster, more efficient work results in a smaller project price tag. This efficiency makes summer the ideal time for comprehensive pipe rehabilitation projects.
