The Avrett Company Inc

What The Avrett Company Inc does

The Avrett Company Inc is a privately held, founder-owned plumbing and trenchless pipe rehabilitation contractor headquartered in Augusta, Georgia. Founded in 1983 by David Avrett to serve the residential and commercial plumbing needs of the Central Savannah River Area (CSRA), the company has grown into a multi-disciplinary specialty contractor operating across five Southeast states (Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, and Tennessee). Its core service is trenchless Cured-In-Place Pipe (CIPP) rehabilitation, using the LightStream UV™ fiberglass UV-cured liner system, the Perma-Liner™ lateral CIPP system for 2"–8" pipes, and the Warren Epoxy one-coat VOC-free spray-on coating for manholes and large-diameter pipes (over 48"). Supporting capabilities include CCTV inspection (Invirosite rover and pole cameras), high-pressure jetting and vactor cleaning, septic system repair and rejuvenation via the Terralift system, polybutylene pipe replacement, and NFPA fire hydrant testing, ASSE backflow certification, and NASSCO-certified CIPP liner inspection.

The company serves three primary customer segments: residential homeowners (household repairs, septic, sewer/storm drain, polybutylene replacement), restaurant/hospitality operators (grease traps, drain cleaning, emergency repair with 24/7 response), and commercial/industrial customers including industrial plants and municipal infrastructure operators requiring large-diameter CIPP lining, manhole rehabilitation, and compliance certification. Avrett holds Standard 61 certification on its Warren Epoxy system for potable water applications 36" and above, and has published ASTM D790 and ASTM 2990 performance data on its LightStream UV liner (flexural strength over 600,000 psi, 50-year design life, 3x the strength of a newly installed felt liner at 50 years).

Avrett's business model is entirely field-service-based: customers initiate contact via phone (primary (706) 796-0200 or toll-free 888-956-7291) to request estimates and inspections; jobs are quoted per project based on pipe size, length, scope, and site conditions; and certified technicians are dispatched with specialized equipment (vactors, jetting rigs, CCTV crawlers, CIPP inversion/UV curing rigs, epoxy spray systems). There is no self-serve, e-commerce, or online-booking channel. Marketing is driven by local SEO around service-specific pages and by direct phone-based lead capture, with no disclosed social media, app, or API surface. The company is privately held with no institutional investment, parent company, or disclosed funding rounds.
