A collapsed sewer main backs sewage into multiple units and triggers health violations. We replace failing multifamily sewer lines — trenchless where possible — to stop backups for good.
Everything you need under one contract. No coordinating multiple vendors — we handle it all.
Failing building sewer mains and laterals replaced or relined.
Replace pipe without trenching the whole property — less restoration.
Cured-in-place liner rehabs pipes from the inside, minimal digging.
Video inspection locates breaks, bellies, and root intrusion exactly.
Diagnose and repair shared laterals that back up multiple buildings.
Emergency response to active sewage backups across units.
We specialize in Class C garden-style apartment complexes — the 20-40 year old, 2-3 story walk-ups that make up the backbone of Houston's rental market. Our systems are built around properties with 50-300 units, occupied residents, tight budgets, and real timelines.

Scope the line to confirm the failure type, location, and depth.
Trenchless (bursting/CIPP) when feasible to cut downtime and restoration.
Permits pulled; work staged to keep access and parking usable.
New line installed or liner cured; full flow restored and verified.
Any excavation backfilled and surfaces (concrete/asphalt) restored.
Post-job camera pass confirms a clean, properly sloped line.
Updated properties command premium rents. Most owners see 15–25% rent increase potential after quality renovation work.
Residents stay longer in well-maintained properties. Reducing one turnover saves $3,000–$8,000 in lost rent and make-ready costs.
Every $1 of NOI improvement drives $12–$17 of asset value at typical Houston cap rates. Renovation pays for itself at sale.
"Tell Projects completely transformed our 180-unit complex. Phase by phase, no resident displacement, and the work quality is unlike anything I've seen from other contractors in Houston."
"We had three other bids. Tell Projects wasn't the cheapest, but they were the only ones who gave us a real phasing plan and stood behind it. Project finished on time and on budget."
"Our rents went up 22% after the renovation. That's real NOI that I'll carry into the next deal. Tell Projects is the reason we can refinance at a much better valuation."
Sewer line replacement typically runs $50-$250 per linear foot depending on diameter, depth, access, and method. Trenchless methods cost more per foot but save heavily on surface restoration.
Usually yes. Pipe bursting and CIPP lining avoid trenching parking and walkways, cut project time 30-50%, and eliminate most surface restoration cost.
Yes — we respond 24/7, clear the immediate backup, then camera-inspect to scope the permanent repair.
Shared laterals serving multiple buildings are common in older complexes. We diagnose them and coordinate the repair and permitting across the affected sections.
Yes — any excavation is backfilled and the concrete or asphalt surface restored as part of the project scope.
No obligation. No pushy sales. Just an honest conversation about your property's needs and what quality renovation costs in today's Houston market.
