General
Ella’s Ultraliner Division was recently established to enhance our ability to meet all the needs of our
Utility Division clients. Operating under the close supervision of partner Joe Gannon, this division will
focus on the rehabilitation of existing sanitary sewer, water, and storm drain systems with the minimal
disruption of surface improvements, the traveling public and area businesses.

Sanitary Sewer and Storm Drain Rehabilitation
Employing the unique capabilities of Ella, the Ultraliner system and the Tro-Lining system, this
division will set the standard for trenchless gravity flow pipe rehabilitation in Texas. As the sole
license holder for the proprietary PVC alloy lining products in Texas, Ella will be employing the
“better mousetrap” when it comes to completing projects that require the highest quality finished
product and the least impact on the public. One of the defining characteristics of the Ultraliner system
is that it can be removed from and reinserted in the host pipe should conditions warrant. For more
on this unique and exciting system, please visit www.ultraliner.com to view a demonstration
video. This division will enhance Ella’s ability to meet and exceed the needs of the areas most
demanding clients and projects.

Water Main Rehabilitation
Another feature that sets the Ultraliner system apart from the competition is its unique ability to
rehabilitate pressure pipe systems. Given the fact that the liner can be inserted through bends in the
host pipe and that liners can be produced as small as 3” in diameter, the applications for pressure
system rehabilitation projects cover a wide spectrum. Coupled with Ella’s experience in traditional
pressure pipe installations, this division will be capable of rehabilitating pressure systems in
whatever manner the project demands to best suit a client’s needs.

1. Public and Private Storm Drainage Facilities

Services
Ella is prepared to assist our clients during any stage of design and/or construction. We are happy to
review plans in progress and provide comments regarding constructability to the design staff. Once
plans are in sufficient form, we will prepare conservative “pro-forma’ cost proposals to enable our
clients to secure financing or prepare budgets. If plans have been previously prepared, we can
suggest value-engineering items that will save the client time or money and in most cases, both.
During construction, our field personnel will coordinate with the client’s other contractors and
constantly analyze the project in the hopes of providing suggestions that will enhance not only our
performance, but that of the project as a whole. We will have in attendance at all jobsite meetings a
representative who is capable of making decisions on behalf of Ella and ensuring that promises
made are fulfilled.

Summation
Never be satisfied – Good enough isn’t. Work urgently every day – but don’t get in a hurry. That’s the
Ella difference. Our clients know it. Our people have proven it. We say what we do and do what we say.
