FLO ASSESSMENT
Verdict: GO
Flags: None
Summary: Straightforward 66 LF lined run from a sweep cleanout. Cast iron transitions to clay at 6 ft — install team should confirm clay pipe size before pulling liner (standard check on this pipe type). Two mild 22.5° bends, camera sailed through without issue. Minor roots at 22–55 ft cleared by Flexshaft on liner day. Laundry tie-in at 2 ft stays fully open after remote start is cut out — no reinstatement needed.

PERMIT REQUIREMENTS
City: Minneapolis
Permit Type: Minneapolis Sewer Permit
How to Apply: Verify with office
Cost: $160.00
Inspection Process: Verify with office
Road Patch Requirement: N/A
Road Closure: N/A
I&I Program: N/A
Notes: If any work enters the ROW, a separate Minneapolis ROW Excavation Permit ($800) is required. This job appears to be interior/no-dig — standard sewer permit should apply.

HEADS UP — INSTALL TEAM ATTENTION
None

ADDITIONAL NOTES
Install team: Confirm clay pipe size after the cast iron section before pulling liner. Usually 6" but occasionally 4" or 5" — quick check saves a wasted liner.
Full liner footage billed is 66 LF. Remote start covers 0–3 ft (past laundry tie-in at 2 ft) — Clog Dog cuts it out post-cure.

A couple of things to sort out on the customer info before we dive in: 1. The name looks like it might have a typo — is it **Ben Smith**? 2. The phone number appears to be missing a digit — can you confirm the full number? (Looking for something like **763-568-8837**?)

CORRECTIONS_START {"customer_name": "Ben Smith", "customer_phone": "763-568-8937"} CORRECTIONS_END Got it — Ben Smith, 763-568-8937. Now let's scope this job. A few quick questions: 1. The proposed scope shows the liner running **3' to 66' (63 LF)**. Just to confirm — the liner starts at 3 ft because of the laundry tie-in at 2 ft, right? That would make the remote start section 3 ft inside the pipe, which is well within the 15 ft limit. And to be clear, the full 66 LF is what gets billed, not 63 LF. 2. What's the access situation in the basement — is the sweep cleanout easy to get to, or is it in a tight spot (against a wall, near a water meter, anything like that)? 3. Do you know if there's a camera video already done on this run? You've included a video link — has the camera made it through the full 66 ft without any trouble?

1. Correct 2. Easy to get to 3. Made it easy. roots are not to bad

Perfect — that's all I need. Let me put this together. A couple of things to note before the ticket: **Liner footage:** The correct bill is **66 LF**, not 63 LF. The remote start covers the 0–3 ft section (past the laundry tie-in at 2 ft), and after curing the Clog Dog cuts it out — leaving the tie-in fully open. No reinstatement needed. The full 66 ft of liner material is what gets ordered and billed. **Liner plan:** This is a 4"→6" transition run. Two options: - **Option A — Stretch liner:** Single pull, handles the 4"→6" transition on its own. Slightly preferred given the two 22.5° bends (minor, but stretch takes turns more cleanly). - **Option B — Scrim + transition liner:** The 4" section is 6 ft and the 6" section is 60 ft. The **15/85/3** transition liner covers both (15 ft ≥ 6 ft ✓, 85 ft ≥ 60 ft ✓) with good buffer. Next tightest would be 12/60/3 but the 6" section is exactly 60 ft — no buffer for pullback on bends, so 15/85/3 is the safer pick. **Roots:** Minor, camera sailed through — Flexshaft will handle these on liner day as standard prep. No pre-job crew needed. ---
