Deep cleaning is necessary before replacing the lining of sewer pipes. High-powered nozzles and chain cutters make pipe cleaning quick and efficient. Pipe lining has become a go-to solution for renewing aging sewer and storm lines without the disruption of open-cut excavation. By installing a new liner inside an existing pipe, crews can restore structural integrity, seal leaks, and extend service life while keeping streets, sidewalks, and landscapes largely untouched. But the success of that liner depends on what happens first. Liners are installed by inverting or pulling them into the host pipe and holding them tightly against the pipe wall with air or water pressure, while steam or hot water is used to cure the resin and form a new structural pipe within the existing one. However, blockages in the pipe formed by tree roots, hardened mineral scale, grease buildup, silt, and debris can interfere with this process. If a liner is installed over these obstructions, it cannot ...

By Luke Carothers  Good marketing is hard to fake, and the campaigns that stand out usually solve a real problem.  They help firms recruit talent, strengthen client relationships, tell better project stories, or create visibility in a crowded market. The strongest MEA award entries tend to reflect this.  These campaigns are more than polished visuals.  They clearly explain the thinking, strategy, and results behind the work.  That’s part of the reason the Marketing Excellence Awards are evolving for 2026 with a new scoring model designed to create clear expectations for award-winning submissions.  Instead of entries being judged against one another, submissions are now evaluated against defined scoring thresholds for Platinum, Gold, and Honorable Mention .  This change creates more opportunities for strong work to be recognized regardless of firm size or marketing budget, while also making it easier to understand what the judges are actually l...
