Flathead Valley-based Roddie, Inc. develops trenchless sewer pipe replacement technology

Replacing a broken sewer pipe, like the one at a Kalispell business recently, would normally require uprooting the entire line through excavation. The playground and part of the back alley would need to be torn apart in order to fix the collapsed sewer. But Rod Herrick replaced the entire stretch of line 110 feet underground without tearing up the ground above.

"When we left you never would have known we were there," said Herrick, founder and owner of Roddie, Inc. http://www.roddieunderground.com
