Severance Quick Answer

Start with the actual wastewater provider, then inspect the actual private line

Trusted Trenchless evaluates qualifying private sewer-service problems in Severance with camera-first diagnosis and Multiple Repair Methods. A backup, sewer-scope finding, or prior recommendation does not by itself choose CIPP, pipe bursting, excavation, or replacement.

Established-community history and newer growth are useful local context, not a pipe diagnosis. The age of the Town, a neighborhood, or a home does not establish a private sewer line's material, condition, alignment, grade, responsibility, repair need, or CIPP eligibility.

Provider Verification

Wastewater service and map context must be confirmed property by property

The Town says it provides potable water, wastewater, and stormwater services for many customers within Town limits, while specific subdivisions have some or no services billed through the Town. A Severance mailing address, Town boundary, ZIP code, water bill, water provider, or map location alone does not establish the actual wastewater provider.

The current Town sanitation map is provider context, not parcel-level service confirmation or a Trusted Trenchless service-area map. Confirm the actual provider, connection arrangement, and likely public/private work boundary before relying on a maintenance rule or repair method.

Town Billing Is Not Parcel Proof

The Town says it provides potable water, wastewater, and stormwater services for many customers within Town limits, while specific subdivisions have some or no services billed through the Town. A Severance mailing address, Town boundary, ZIP code, water bill, or water provider alone does not establish the actual wastewater provider or work boundary.

Current Sanitation Map Context

The Town currently links a June 2026 Sanitation Districts Map. It is high-level provider context, not parcel-level service confirmation and not a Trusted Trenchless service-area map.

Applicable Town Public Works Context

Town Public Works oversees Town water, sewer, storm-drain, and transportation infrastructure. Apply that context only after the property is confirmed to use the applicable Town-managed system.

Metro-District and Managed-Property Context

The Town explains that metropolitan districts can provide infrastructure within their boundaries. That general fact does not identify a specific property provider, ownership rule, shared system, access path, or repair boundary.

Public System or Private Line?

Keep public-infrastructure triage separate from private-line repair

Town Public Works says it oversees the Town's water, sewer, storm-drain, and transportation systems. That is Town-system context only after the property is confirmed to use the applicable Town arrangement; it does not establish that every Severance address is on Town wastewater or that a visible symptom is on a private line.

Trusted Trenchless evaluates qualifying private sewer-service problems. It does not repair Town or other public sanitation mains and does not determine municipal liability. If the available facts point to a possible public-main concern, coordinate with the confirmed provider instead of assuming a private repair.

Public Sewer, Private Disposal, or Another Arrangement

Town code has exceptions; no universal Severance service arrangement should be assumed

Current Town Municipal Code Sec. 13-3-20 says an occupied structure shall be connected to the public wastewater collection system unless excepted. When a public sanitary sewer is unavailable because of distance or terrain, the same section says private sewage disposal may be allowed after Town approval and describes related permit filing.

That does not establish that a specific property is on public sewer, private sewage disposal, a shared private system, a district system, or another arrangement. Confirm the actual property and provider context before applying a rule or defining a private repair scope.

Applicable Town Service-Line Context

Use the current Town responsibility language only where the Town arrangement applies

For a property under the applicable Town public-wastewater arrangement, Sec. 13-3-20 places the cost of installing and connecting the building service line and service-line connection to the sanitary sewer main, together with line-maintenance costs from the main to the service property, on the property owner.

This is practical customer-service context, not legal advice. A universal house-to-main ownership boundary cannot be assumed from a Severance address. The language does not automatically apply to another provider, private sewage disposal, a shared system, a public-main condition, or every Severance property.

Established Community and Current Growth

Severance history and newer development are context, not pipe evidence

The Town's current history page identifies Severance's 1906 founding and 1920 incorporation, while its Planning page describes substantial growth over the past decade. Together, those facts support an established-and-growing community context.

They do not establish an older, clay, root-damaged, or failing private sewer. A newer home or neighborhood does not guarantee a problem-free private sewer line. Camera evidence, not community age or development activity, identifies material, condition, grade, continuity, and method eligibility.

Camera First

See the documented private line before choosing a method

A paid standalone sewer camera inspection can document actual pipe material, roots when present, cracks, open or separated joints, offsets, deterioration, obstructions, transitions, standing water, bellies, grade, collapse, lost continuity, and access or configuration limits. These are possible findings, not Severance-wide assumptions.

Camera findings guide the next conversation, but they do not by themselves decide a public/private responsibility question or prove conditions beyond the visible line.

  • recurring sewer or main-drain backups
  • a sewer scope, inspection report, camera recording, excavation recommendation, or replacement quote already in hand
  • repeated stoppages or roots returning after prior cleaning when roots are actually documented
  • cracks, separated or open joints, offsets, deterioration, or missing pipe visible on camera
  • standing water, a belly, improper grade, or a camera that cannot pass through the line
  • a suspected collapse, lost continuity, damaged transition, or defined accessible defect
  • deposits, scale, grease, or debris that limit flow or obscure a clear camera view
  • a private line beneath a driveway, patio, sidewalk, landscaping, or another finished surface
  • uncertainty about whether the concern is in a private service line or public collection infrastructure
  • uncertainty between CIPP, pipe bursting, targeted excavation, or conventional replacement
Sewer Scope or Second Opinion

Bring existing footage and recommendations into a clearer review

Already have a sewer-scope video, buyer or seller inspection finding, excavation recommendation, or full-replacement quote? Share the available footage or report so the documented condition, continuity, grade, access, and repair alternatives can be reviewed.

A second opinion does not promise a trenchless solution. It helps compare the actual evidence, provider context, and site conditions before a method is selected.

Cleaning Is Not Structural Repair

Restore flow or camera access, then evaluate the pipe that remains

Where conditions call for it, drain cleaning, hydro jetting, mechanical root removal, or High-Speed Mechanical Chain Cleaning & Descaling can restore flow, remove an obstruction, improve camera access, or prepare a line for a possible next step. Roots are treated as a camera finding when present, not as a blanket Severance condition.

Cleaning and root removal do not repair cracks, open joints, offsets, deterioration, missing pipe, significant grade problems, or other structural defects. A post-cleaning camera review can clarify whether maintenance, CIPP, targeted repair, bursting, or replacement is the better fit.

Private CIPP Pipe Lining

A qualifying private sewer can be rehabilitated from the inside

Trusted Trenchless performs CIPP Pipe Lining for qualifying private-service-line projects. After camera review, cleaning and preparation, the liner is installed and cured inside a suitable existing host pipe; connections are reopened when applicable and final camera verification documents the result.

Private qualification depends on the actual pipe, continuity, diameter, alignment, grade, structural condition, access, configuration, cleaning feasibility, and defined defect. A camera review is necessary before a lining recommendation.

CIPP Limitations

CIPP does not correct improper grade or a sewer belly

CIPP follows the existing host-pipe path. CIPP does not correct improper grade or a sewer belly. It also may not fit a collapse, loss of continuity, severe displacement, major offset, unsuitable access or configuration, or a line that cannot be adequately cleaned and prepared.

When the line needs a different correction, a camera-guided plan can compare pipe bursting, targeted excavation, spot repair, or traditional replacement rather than forcing a lining recommendation.

No method is guaranteed without a property-specific camera and site review.

Multi-Method Repair Comparison

Compare CIPP, pipe bursting, targeted repair, and replacement against the documented condition

Trusted Trenchless compares CIPP pipe lining, pipe bursting, targeted excavation and spot repair, and traditional sewer-line replacement or open excavation. The decision follows the defect, continuity, grade, depth, access, and restoration considerations, not a one-method sales script.

Pipe bursting can replace a qualifying private sewer line when it fits the conditions, but pipe bursting generally requires access excavation. Targeted excavation or traditional replacement can be the practical path when a line needs direct access, grade correction, or a different alignment.

Traditional Replacement

Finished-Surface Planning

A sewer beneath a driveway, patio, sidewalk, or landscape needs a site-specific plan

When technically appropriate, internal rehabilitation or a carefully selected alternative may reduce full-length excavation and may preserve more existing surface than a conventional full replacement. That is a project-specific possibility, not a promise of zero digging or exact surface preservation.

Depth, utilities, cleanout access, working room, mature landscaping, retaining features, the actual repair method, and public-right-of-way involvement all affect the setup. Access work or localized excavation may still be needed.

Standards, Permits, and Right of Way

Current requirements depend on the provider, work boundary, and actual scope

The Town follows the Greeley Criteria for Construction Standards for current work affecting Town infrastructure. That does not mean Greeley owns or operates Severance wastewater infrastructure, that a Greeley project happened in Severance, or that a current construction standard reveals an existing private pipe. Construction and public-infrastructure standards do not document the material, condition, alignment, or CIPP eligibility of an existing private line.

Town building, contractor-licensing, and right-of-way materials describe current administrative processes. Depending on the provider and scope, work may involve current permitting, contractor, plan-review, inspection, or right-of-way requirements. That does not mean every paid camera inspection, drain cleaning, CIPP project, pipe-bursting project, targeted repair, or private replacement needs the same approval. Confirm the actual requirements and do not treat this as proof of a current local registration held by Trusted Trenchless.

Who We Help and Connected Services

Private sewer decisions for qualifying Severance properties and property partners

Trusted Trenchless works with qualifying single-family properties, rentals, multifamily properties, HOAs, managed properties, commercial properties, and professional referrals. Occupancy, access, provider context, operating needs, and the documented private-line condition help define the scope.

Paid camera inspection, drain and sewer cleaning, hydro jetting, High-Speed Mechanical Chain Cleaning & Descaling, CIPP pipe lining, pipe bursting, targeted excavation and spot repair, traditional sewer-line replacement, and trenchless repair planning are connected decisions. The method follows the documented line, not a one-service sales path.

Trusted Trenchless also provides or coordinates water-line replacement when a separate, defined water-line need is identified. Water-line work is not assumed from a sewer concern.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about Severance Service Area

Who provides wastewater service in Severance?

The actual provider must be confirmed for the property. The Town says it provides wastewater service for many customers within Town limits, while specific subdivisions have some or no services billed through the Town. Other provider, private-disposal, shared-system, or managed-property arrangements can require different context.

Does a Severance address mean my property uses Town sewer?

No. A mailing address, Town boundary, ZIP code, neighborhood, utility bill, or map location does not by itself establish the actual wastewater provider, connection arrangement, or public/private work boundary.

Is my water provider automatically my wastewater provider?

No. Water-service information does not establish wastewater service, a sanitary connection, ownership, maintenance responsibility, or a repair boundary. Confirm the actual wastewater arrangement for the property.

Who is responsible for a sewer service line on the Town system?

For a property under the applicable Town public-wastewater arrangement, current Sec. 13-3-20 places the stated installation and connection costs and line-maintenance costs from the main to the service property on the owner. This is practical customer-service context, not legal advice; confirm the actual provider, connection, defect location, and current applicability before responsibility or scope is finalized.

Can a Severance property use private sewage disposal or another arrangement?

Current Town code includes exceptions and says private sewage disposal may be allowed when public sanitary sewer is unavailable because of distance or terrain, subject to Town approval. That does not establish any specific property arrangement; confirm the actual provider and system.

Do older Severance homes have clay sewer lines?

No blanket conclusion should be made from community or property age. Town history does not establish a private line's material, roots, condition, grade, repair need, or CIPP eligibility. A camera inspection can document actual material and conditions when inspection is appropriate.

Can newer Severance homes still have sewer problems?

Yes. A newer home or neighborhood does not guarantee a problem-free private sewer line. Camera findings can identify actual installation defects, transitions, obstructions, offsets, grade concerns, damage, or other conditions when present.

Can CIPP fix a sewer belly or improper grade?

No. CIPP follows the existing host-pipe path and does not correct improper grade or a sewer belly. A camera-guided review can compare another method when a different correction is needed.

Can pipe bursting replace a Severance sewer line?

Pipe bursting can replace a qualifying private sewer line when the documented pipe, continuity, access, depth, alignment, provider context, and work boundary support it. It is provided or coordinated through Trusted Trenchless and generally requires access excavation.

Can a sewer beneath a driveway, patio, or sidewalk be repaired without removing everything?

A documented private line beneath a finished surface needs a site-specific plan. When technically appropriate, a selected method may reduce full-length excavation and preserve more surface, but zero digging or exact surface preservation is not guaranteed.
