Trenchless Pipe Lining

Fast Plumbing Services When You Need Them

Damaged sewer lines and drains are common issues faced by every home or business owner. Repairs become more difficult if the problem is ignored or left to develop over time. It is easy to ignore what is not seen and it is even easier to ignore the small problems you notice that might indicate problems within your sewer system. If the sinks are draining more slowly it might be easy to write that off as a minor irritation as opposed to a possible problem that needs addressing.

All About Trenchless Pipe Lining

When a pipe system blows up, it’s easy to imagine the worst. Major trench digging and massive property unearthing are not the only methods of repair when it comes to damaged pipes.

A new no-dig solution has arrived! The emergence of trenchless pipe lining has dramatically changed how people perceive pipe repairs and replacements. Trenchless pipe lining is a minimally invasive process that allows the rehabilitation of existing drainage pipes without having to tear them out and replace them conventionally. This new method has a 50-year life expectancy so, as easy as it may be to ignore that pesky slow drain, it is much smarter to face the problem head-on!

Inspection

First, an initial inspection is performed using a high-definition, full-color, and self-leveling sewer camera. During this process, our plumber will locate and document any problems such as cracks, blockages, tree roots, etc.

Cleaning

Next, the pipes are thoroughly cleaned with hydro-jetting or mechanical methods. This process removes tree roots, blockages, and scale buildup in preparation for the lining. Sometimes, sewer cleaning may be all that is required to remedy pipe problems such as slow drains and blockages. Just remember, if there is a need to line the pipe then you won’t have to deal with the problem again for a very long time!

Lining

After the pipe is cleaned and the debris has been removed, the pipe is ready to be lined. The felt liner is measured and cut to the dimensions of the pipe such as length and diameter. Then the liner is saturated with a two-part epoxy and inserted into the pipe either by the inversion method or the pull-in-place method. An inflatable bladder is inflated inside of the epoxy-saturated liner causing the liner to take the shape of the pipe while it cures in place. After the epoxy has cured, the bladder is removed and a brand-new pipe is left in place inside of the existing one.
