Clay
Breathtaking colors of our planet
Corrugated
Widely used and very common, corrugated "big-o" pipe is a lightweight plastic that can flex around.
Over time, the pipe can become crushed, deformed or obstructed by thick sediment filling slits (seen above) or root intrusion.
Damage is particularly seen where installation conditions change or surrounding soil place increasing hydrostatic pressure.
Concrete
Typically installed in individual sections, concrete tile can deteriorate, crack or become displaced over time.
Joint separation and sediment accumulation may restrict water flow and reduce the system's effectiveness.
