If you’re dealing with plumbing issues like blocked drains, cracks, or leaks, it’s important to consider the most effective solution. While traditional methods like pipe replacement can be costly and disruptive, pipe relining offers a modern alternative that could be just what your plumbing system needs.
Here’s how you can assess if pipe relining is the right choice for your situation:
- Are your pipes showing signs of damage like cracks, leaks, or root intrusions? Pipe relining can seal and reinforce your existing pipes, eliminating the need for costly pipe replacement.
- Do you want to avoid the hassle and expense of excavation? Pipe relining is a trenchless process, meaning no digging up your yard or driveway, saving you time and money on repairs.
- Are you looking for a long-lasting solution? Pipe relining not only solves immediate plumbing problems but also strengthens your pipes, making them resistant to further damage, corrosion, and root intrusion.
- Do you want a quick, efficient fix? Unlike traditional repairs, pipe relining can often be completed in a day, reducing downtime and disruptions to your home or business.
What is Pipe Relining and How Does it Work?
Traditional pipe repair methods often require excavation and full pipe replacement, which can be disruptive, annoying and expensive. Pipe relining is a more efficient and cost-effective alternative that involves reinforcing the existing pipes from the inside with an epoxy liner. This process consists of several key steps:
Inspection and Assessment
A CCTV camera inspection helps identify the condition of your pipes and locate damage.
Cleaning the Pipes
High-pressure water jets remove debris, tree roots, and blockages to prepare the pipes for relining.
Installing the Liner
A flexible liner coated with epoxy resin is inserted into the damaged pipe and inflated to bond with the pipe’s interior walls.
Curing the Resin
Using hot water or UV light, the resin is hardened to form a durable, seamless new pipe.
Final Inspection
A final CCTV inspection ensures the relining process has been completed successfully.
In fact, a study conducted on pipework that had been in place for over 100 years found that pipe relining was able to effectively reinforce these aging pipes without the need for invasive excavation on the heritage property. This approach not only provided a durable long lasting solution but also ensured that the surrounding structures were undisturbed, making it an ideal choice for older properties.
