Trenchless pipe lining involves fixing leaks, cracks and gaps in your sewer lines. You may hear this process referred to as:
- Drain pipe lining
- Internal pipe lining
- No-dig sewer lining
- Later sewer line
- Sewer relining
- Sewer pipe relining
- Epoxy pipe lining
- Cured-in-place pipe lining (CIPP Lining)
Sewer pipe lining is completed by inserting a flexible epoxy liner into the damaged pipe. The pipe tubing may also be made of polyester or fiberglass. Because this material is malleable when first inserted, plumbers can easily maneuver it through the fittings and pipes until it is in place.
Then, the epoxy-saturated liner will harden and cure, creating an improved pipe flow and preventing pipe erosion. This service requires minimal to no digging. Additionally, it is less time-consuming because there is no need for extensive restoration or cleanup — which is ideal for busy homeowners.
At Mr. Rooter Plumbing, we offer trenchless pipe lining services for your sewer system. We will target the damaged or aging pipes through a series of steps that include:
- Inspecting the compromised pipes
- Removing debris and blockages from the existing pipes
- Measuring the line
- Preparing the replacement tube
- Saturating the tubing with epoxy-resin
- Inserting the tube into the pipes
- Curing or solidifying the tubing to remove all moisture
