In the far north the laterals are deep, the frost is deeper, and the pipe is usually cast iron or clay that was laid well below the frost line and then left alone for decades. Freeze-thaw cycles on the shallower sections near the house do the damage.
Heaving ground, short construction seasons and long periods when a failing line simply cannot be dug up mean problems accumulate. Permafrost and seasonal frost both move pipe, and a short summer is the only window for open-cut work.
Trenchless methods are not a convenience here; they are often the only way to replace a line outside a six-week window. Lining can be done from inside the building in any season, and bursting needs only two small pits that can be thawed and opened in winter if they must be.
