Underground utilities/pipes are integral to any building project, but they can challenge construction companies. When these lines/pipes need removal or replacement, it is vital to make sure that saw cutting will not do damage along the way due to repairs that seamlessly match up with asphalt after work has been completed. Proper patches should meet all soil compaction levels set locally and density requirements that must exceed what’s already present at your location to avoid future problems downstream when people drive over newly installed asphalt.

In Nashville, there is a trend towards building two homes on one property. When that happens, it’s necessary to do an extra water tap out in the middle of the street and a sewer tap in the alley. To do those taps, you must saw-cut and excavate through the asphalt. Gaddes Strategic, LLC was retained to repair the plumbers dug and square up the topping to clean and uniform.

The Problem:

The plumber had to do an extra water tap because two homes were built on one property. One extra water tap in the middle of the street and an extra sewer tap in the alley. For the plumber to do these taps, he had to saw-cut and excavate through the asphalt.

The Solution:

After the Plumber had damaged the asphalt to connect the water and the sewer taps, Gaddes Strategic was hired to remove and replace the asphalt. The type of asphalt repair performed was an asphalt trench repair. ( images from the project shown above)

About Gaddes Strategic, LLC

We are a few guys who’ve grown up in and offer more than 60 years of experience in concrete, asphalt, and dump trucking. All have professional degrees and have served as executives in corporate life but rather enjoy the freedoms and camaraderie that construction trades afford.

We differentiate ourselves by being responsive and flexible while focusing primarily on small nuisance jobs that many larger contractors have difficulty getting to. As is common in the paving trades, whereas many contractors price aggressive to get the work and then show up months out (or never show), We price fairly and get that work completed, understanding the cost of delaying. So, whether it’s saving dollars by repairing trenches to eliminate steel plate costs or completing in an expedited manner to save on financing costs, our goal is to help progress the project and save our partners money.

We also help with Thermoplastic Pavement Markings.
