Tile blowouts in Wisconsin are increasing in prevalence as older clay and concrete tile drainage systems continue to age. The gradual expansion of tile lines to an existing system, without proper resizing or venting, has only exacerbated this problem. Sinkholes caused by tile blowouts can introduce soil and nutrients into the tile drainage system and increase the potential for nutrient loss and tile blockage.
