Grease line failure at a San Marcos campus-area kitchen

Campus-area restaurant building, San Marcos · Sewer Jetting & CCTV Verification

The problem

A high-volume kitchen was days from a health inspection with a floor drain that would not clear. The operator had already replaced fixtures inside the building on the assumption the problem was upstream of the slab.

Our approach

  1. Responded same day given the pending health inspection and scoped before selling any work
  2. Jetted the kitchen line back to bare cast iron and cleared the submerged interceptor outlet tee
  3. Confirmed on camera that the cast iron was sound, ending the fixture replacement theory
  4. Set the pump-out and jetting interval from measured grease loading and left the video on file for the inspector

What the camera found

  • Kitchen line reduced to a narrow opening by layered hardened grease across a long run
  • Interceptor outlet tee partially submerged in accumulated solids
  • Cast iron underneath the grease sound with no pitting failure or holes
  • Backups traced to maintenance interval, not to the fixtures that had been replaced

Measurable results

  • Jetted to bare pipe and verified on camera before the dinner service the same day
  • Passed the health inspection that week with documentation on file
  • Interceptor pump-out and jetting interval reset around the actual grease loading, not a guess

Offset clay joint under a live East Austin loading dock

Mixed-use retail shell, East Austin near Springdale · CCTV Pipeline Inspection

The problem

The GC was three weeks from turnover on a retail shell and the building sewer kept surcharging into the loading dock trench drain after every rain. Two prior contractors had rodded the line and called it clear. Nobody had put a camera on it, so nobody could tell the owner whether the problem was inside the building, in the private lateral, or in the City main.

Our approach

  1. Set up on the downstream cleanout and ran a self-leveling CCTV crawler upstream through the full building sewer, logging footage marks at every defect
  2. Coded each observation to NASSCO PACP so the structural calls could be defended to the owner and the City
  3. Sonde-located the offset joint and paint-marked the dig window on the dock slab
  4. Verified the City tap and downstream main so responsibility was settled before anyone priced a repair

What the camera found

  • Heavily offset joint at 61 ft with visible soil infiltration, coded PACP JOM/JOL
  • Longitudinal crack running roughly 4 ft upstream of the offset in 6-inch vitrified clay
  • Standing water measured at 22 percent of pipe diameter, confirming a sag rather than a blockage
  • City tap and downstream main verified clear, moving responsibility onto the private lateral

Measurable results

  • Defect sonde-located and paint-marked on the surface, so the repair crew dug one 8 ft pit instead of trenching the full run
  • PACP-coded report and HD video sent the same afternoon, which the owner's rep accepted without a second opinion
  • Post-repair re-scope documented a clean, correctly graded line and closed out the punch item before turnover

Grease-choked 6-inch main serving a downtown Austin food hall

Multi-tenant food hall, Downtown Austin · Sewer Jetting & CCTV Verification

The problem

Six kitchen tenants shared one 6-inch cast iron main under the slab. Backups were hitting the two tenants furthest downstream about every ten days, and the property manager was absorbing after-hours emergency calls with no evidence of who or what was causing it.

Our approach

  1. Scoped the 6-inch main first to separate a maintenance problem from a structural one before any jetting was quoted
  2. Ran warthog and chain-free nozzles overnight from downstream to upstream so grease was carried out, not packed forward
  3. Cleared the interceptor discharge line in the same window so the main would not reload
  4. Re-scoped the full run on camera before opening and issued footage-marked video tied to each tenant tie-in

What the camera found

  • Hardened grease reducing the main to roughly 25 percent of its design diameter across a 40 ft run
  • Grease loading concentrated downstream of two specific tenant tie-ins, documented on video with footage marks
  • No structural defects in the cast iron - the failure was maintenance, not pipe condition
  • Interceptor discharge line partially blocked, feeding the problem back into the main

Measurable results

  • Hydro-jetted back to full diameter overnight, with a verification scope run before the first tenant opened
  • Footage-marked video gave the property manager tenant-specific evidence for the grease policy conversation
  • Quarterly jetting and scope schedule put in place; no emergency backups reported since
