Speedway

A 1963 median build year, its own combined sewer system and its own overflow, on tight lots with narrow access.

— The ground here

What Speedway actually does with water

Speedway is a 1950s and 60s town that is finished growing. The median home was built around 1963 and roughly 63% predates 1970. That single fact predicts most of the work: failing clay and Orangeburg laterals, no perimeter drains, yard grading that was done to 1950s expectations, and sump pumps connected to the sanitary sewer because that is what was done at the time.

Speedway is carved out of the Indianapolis Phase I MS4 and runs its own program, and it runs its own combined sewer system. The town's own material notes that it once had three combined sewer overflows and that the one remaining is at the wastewater treatment plant. That is a small system with real constraints, and clear water going into it is a genuine problem rather than a paperwork one.

The other Speedway reality is physical. Lots are compact, houses sit close together, and access is narrow. That is as much an equipment and logistics problem as a dirt problem. Compact machines, a plan for where spoil goes and how many times a truck crosses a property matter more here than raw horsepower, and a contractor who shows up with the wrong size machine either damages the property or cannot do the work.

Speedway at a glance

Where the water goes

White River system, through the Eagle Creek corridor.

Ground

Urban Marion County. No place-level soil survey data exists for Speedway specifically, so we read the site rather than a map.

Housing

Median build year 1963, with about 63.2% predating 1970. Failing laterals and absent perimeter drains are the norm.

Permitting

Carved out of the Indianapolis Phase I MS4 and runs its own program. Operates its own combined sewer system with one remaining CSO, at the treatment plant.

— How it works

Every Speedway job starts the same way

Call or text us

Start with a call or a text to (317) 503-6782. Tell us what is going on in your own words. Water pools by the back door. The old driveway has to go. The yard slopes toward the house. You do not need the technical terms and you do not need a plan drawn up. If it is something we handle we will set a time to come look. If it is not, we will tell you that and point you somewhere better if we can.

We walk it with you

Casey comes out and looks at the actual site with you. This part matters more in dirt work than in almost any other trade. Two back yards that sound identical on the phone can be completely different once you see the slope, the access, the soil and where the water wants to go. Walking it together means you can point at the problem and we can talk through options on the spot, including options that cost you less than what you had in mind.

You get a free estimate by email

After the walkthrough we put the estimate together and email it to you, with the scope of work written out so you can see what is and is not included. It is free and there is no pressure attached. Take your time with it and compare it if you want to. Honest pricing only works if you have room to check it.

Free, in writing, with no obligation to move forward. A deposit reserves your spot on the schedule once you approve it.

— Questions

Questions we hear in Speedway

My sump pump goes into the sewer. Should I change it?

Yes. Speedway runs its own combined system, and clear water sent into it takes capacity away exactly when a storm needs it. Rerouting a sump discharge to daylight or a pop-up is usually a small job and it is the right thing to do.

Can you even get equipment into my back yard?

Usually. Compact excavators are made for exactly this, and access is the first thing we look at on the walkthrough: what the gate width is, what the machine has to cross, and how many trips it takes. If access genuinely will not work, we will tell you that rather than tearing up your property finding out.

What is Orangeburg pipe and do I have it?

It is a bituminous fiber sewer pipe used in the mid twentieth century that deforms and collapses with age. Houses of Speedway's era are candidates for it. Whether you have it is something a camera inspection answers, and it is worth knowing before you pay to repair rather than replace.

Do you serve Speedway?

Yes. Speedway is in Marion County, one of the four counties we work. We are based in Brownsburg, and Speedway is regular territory.

How much will it cost?

There is no honest way to answer that without seeing the property, because the price is driven by where the water is coming from, how far it has to be carried and what it has to cross. The estimate is free, Casey walks it with you, and you get the scope in writing by email.
