Understanding the Pipe Lining Process
Cured-in-place pipelining (CIPP) is a revolutionary method for repairing pipelines without the need for complete replacement. This safe and efficient pipe lining technique involves lining your pipes from the inside by inserting a fiberglass or polyester tube coated with resin into the damaged pipe. The resin subsequently hardens, transforming into a new pipe. The steps of our pipe lining services include:
Examination
Our service professionals assess your pipes to determine the extent of damage, planning the pipe lining service if needed.
Preparation
Blockages are removed, and hydro jetting technology is employed to clear debris, allowing for accurate measurement of the pipe's length.
Insertion & Curing
The pipe liner is inserted and cured, with the curing process involving the use of hot water to harden the resin and UV radiation for finalization. Junctions and inspection pits are cut out during this stage.
Final Inspection
After deflating and removing the bladder, a final inspection is conducted using plumbing video camera equipment to ensure proper installation.
Duration of Pipe Lining Services
The time required for our pipe lining service depends on the location and severity of the job. Typically, the process can be completed in a few hours, with the curing process taking about a day. Compared to pipe replacement, pipe lining is a much quicker solution.
Advantages of Pipe Lining vs. Replacement
It's not uncommon for homeowners to not understand whether they can have their pipes lined or they require replacement. We offer pipe relining and drain relining services, which have advantages. Pipe lining offers several significant benefits over traditional pipe replacement, including:
- No need for yard excavation or digging during pipe lining services
- Environmentally friendly pipe lining technology
- Durable and reliable relined pipes with an extended lifespan
- Creation of a smooth interior surface to enhance flow capacity
- Prevention of tree root intrusion
- Strengthening of existing pipes through the CIPP technique
