Alight Blacksburg

The Village at Blacksburg offers students at Virginia Tech off-campus living with a range of amenities such as swimming pools, fitness centers, and a clubhouse. When deteriorating pipes led to bursts and leaks in apartments throughout the property, the managers took swift action and trusted SageWater for its turnkey solution. The SageWater team replaced the pipes in each unit, from slab to fixtures, with a new piping system. Because the repipe took place during the school year, SageWater team’s turnkey service was essential­—including ample communication with residents about process and service dates, as well as restoring each apartment to its original condition. In addition, SageWater ensured the safety or residents and workers by following strict COVID protocols regarding proper PPE, handwashing stations, and limited crew inside student homes.
