Sterling Heights is the single biggest market for sewer scopes in our region — not because the city is doing anything wrong, but because the 1960s–80s buildout matches the exact era when Orangeburg was installed at scale. That pipe is now 50+ years old and failing. Scoping before you close is the difference between a $250 inspection and a $15,000 excavation.
Sterling Heights has a primarily 1960s through 1980s suburban expansion, with some 1990s and newer subdivisions. That mix matters — because the underground sewer line on a 60-year-old ranch is a completely different piece of infrastructure than the line on a five-year-old colonial, and the problems we find are era-specific.
We regularly work in Lakeside, the Mound Road corridor, the Van Dyke / 15 Mile area, and the Dodge Park / Utica Road corridor. Sterling Heights is one of the most Orangeburg-heavy cities in our service area. The mass suburban buildout from the late 1960s through the 1970s coincided exactly with Orangeburg pipe's popularity — meaning thousands of Sterling Heights homes still have deteriorating bitumen-impregnated sewer lines underground.
The most common issues we document in Sterling Heights are Orangeburg pipe failure (bellies, collapse, delamination), plus aging clay in the oldest neighborhoods. A 30- to 60-minute sewer scope answers the question that no visual inspection can: what's actually happening inside the line?
