Manhattan sewer replacement work can pose special challenges to a sewer contractor. Recently a NYC sewer line suddenly stopped working and an emergency sewer replacement was needed. The property in question was located at 475 Tenth Avenue in Manhattan. This large office tower also houses an active art museum called Exit Art. Coincidentally, the same day of the sewer collapse coincided with the commencement of a ‘red carpet’ fund raiser at the Exit Art museum. Unlike many Manhattan sewer jobs this one demanded immediate attention and working around the clock until the sewer replacement was complete.

Joseph L. Balkan Inc responded to this Manhattan sewer emergency by providing work crews around the clock from a Thursday morning until this NYC sewer emergency was completely resolved on Sunday afternoon. The end result was a complete sewer replacement including complete restoration of disturbed sidewalk cement and disturbed area of the roadway as well. Balkan is a sewer contractor that tailors its services to the needs of its customers. Whether working under a tight budget, being restricted to particular work hours, or a sewer replacement in Manhattan performed around-the-clock. Name a NYC sewer and water main problem or condition and Balkan has a cost effective answer.
