Effective Date: May 27, 2026
Company: SLB Contracting (SLB Pipe Solutions)
Jurisdiction: Indiana (Lawrence County and statewide municipal networks)
Governing Law: State of Indiana
1. Scope of Municipal, Industrial & Civil Infrastructure Services
SLB Contracting specializes in comprehensive civil excavation, sub-surface utility management, non-distributive trenchless pipeline rehabilitation, and industrial wastewater environmental services.
- Service Framework & Infrastructure Definitions: Our structural operations encompass Sanitary Sewer networks, Potable Water distributions, Storm Sewer mainline collection systems, Lift Station installation/repair, and municipal Water/Wastewater Treatment Facility maintenance.
- Estimating Architecture: Financial quotes, project bid submittals, and engineering timelines provided via (812) 318-9010 or http://slb-contracting.com are non-binding preliminary assessments. Definitive agreements are executed strictly upon a comprehensive review of engineering schematics, municipal plan specifications, or physical CCTV Diagnostic Inspections.
- Trenchless & Mechanical Feasibility: Non-distributive alternatives (including Pipe Bursting, CIPP, and SIPP) are highly efficient, cost-effective methods. However, structural execution depends entirely on host pipe configuration and structural stability. SLB Contracting reserves the right to employ traditional excavation methods if an underground conduit suffers a total structural collapse or is deemed physically unviable for trenchless technologies.
2. SMS & Mobile Messaging Consent
By submitting an online bid request, initiating a project consultation, or contacting our Bedford operations office, you enter our commercial communications loop and provide explicit consent to receive SMS notifications from SLB Contracting for:
- Project & Dispatch Logistics: Real-time updates regarding civil crew mobilization, heavy equipment delivery, utility tracking, and emergency hydro excavation dispatch.
- Technical Asset Delivery: Digital transmission of high-definition CCTV inspection videos, pipeline slope data, and "Before and After" restoration files.
- Account Administration: Progress billing milestones, contract change-order notices, and compliance sign-offs.
- Opt-Out Control: You retain absolute authority to terminate mobile text alerts at any time by replying STOP. Standard message and data rates apply.
3. Professional Standards, Safety, & Licensing
Since 2010, SLB Contracting has strictly operated under a core Safety, Quality, and Efficiency framework. We are a fully licensed, bonded, and insured contracting entity. All utility installations, treatment plant updates, and heavy civil actions comply with the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission (IURC), OSHA trench safety regulations, and the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) standards. Every project is backed by our professional Workmanship Guarantee.
4. Punctuality & Indiana Regional Logistical Factors
While we are committed to fast and reliable service, SLB Contracting is legally exempt from project or dispatch liability regarding timeline modifications caused by:
- Adverse weather variables (heavy seasonal rains, flash flooding, or freezing soil) that disrupt chemical curing environments, destabilize excavation walls, or overwhelm storm systems.
- Logistical or transit bottlenecks along regional thoroughfares (Hwy 37, US-50, or local municipal access roads).
- Delays induced by the state-mandated utility notification network (Indiana 811 / Holey Moley) or regional municipal permitting queues.
5. High-Pressure Mainline Jetting & Structural Disclaimers
Our mainline hydro jetting and advanced cleaning services apply high-pressure water streams to scour roots, grease, scale, and heavy mineral blockages from municipal and commercial lines. Property owners and facility managers acknowledge that these procedures apply significant physical pressure to internal pipe walls. SLB Contracting disclaims structural liability for the failure or collapse of underground lines that were already thinned, cracked, or structurally compromised by decades of corrosion or chemical oxidation prior to our arrival.
6. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by Indiana statutory law, the cumulative liability of SLB Contracting for any mechanical omission, construction anomaly, or contractual dispute shall not exceed the actual aggregate financial sums paid by the client under the specific service agreement. We assume no civil liability for pre-existing environmental contamination, sub-surface aquifer disruption, or structural foundation shifting caused by long-standing underground utility leaks that occurred prior to our technical mobilization.
