CWW first obtained a contract with St-Vincent Hospital consisting of televising and locating the storm and sanitary drains in the basement of the original building on Cambridge St. Originally built in 1932, the hospital had received major renovations including a new addition in 2001.CWW investigated over 1000m of sewer drains by push sewer camera.
Following CWW’s report, and at the request of the client, most drains were cleaned and flushed while others were selected by the client for rehabilitation by CIPP. CWW re-lined approximately 20m of 4 inch diameter sanitary drains under the concrete floor in the hospital’s main kitchen area. The work was conducted overnight when the flow would be minimal, and the disruptions to the hospital staff and patients would be greatly reduced. The work was complete by the following morning, allowing the drains to be used at full capacity.
