Trenchless 101: How Trenchless Pipe Lining is Done

Trenchless pipe lining is an excellent advancement from the traditional way of replacing pipes. It saves on cost, time, and more destruction caused to the garden than the conventional way. The plumber does not have to dig more; hence less labor and time are used doing trenchless lining. The trenchless lining is where a pipe is inserted in the former pipe without destroying it. The pipe is made from epoxy, ensuring the new pipe is strengthened, and the yard is not damaged. 

Perry Plumbing, the authority on trenchless pipe lining in Chula Vista, CA, explains how trenchless pipe lining is done.

Step One: Locating the Root Cause

The first step is pinpointing the exact location of the problematic pipe. This is done via a sewer camera inspection. Once the exact location of the clog or leak has been established, the technician will then make further inspections to uncover any underlying problem.

Step Two: Preparing the Pipe

Secondly, the pipeline is washed to eliminate clogged drains, i.e., dust, roots, or any other object that could make the lining process unsuccessful. It’s important to note that while some online videos may recommend taking DIY steps, it’s better to leave the job to the professionals.

Step Three: Mixing the Resin

The next step in trenchless sewer repair is preparing the resin. After getting the resin mixture ready, it is then poured into the liner and spun several times to enhance the liner and resin attachment.

Step Four: Inserting the Liner

The liner is then inserted into the problematic pipe. Lastly, in trenchless pipe replacement, air pressure is exerted, which helps seal and attach the pipe which will then be ready for use.

Trenchless pipe replacement is an innovative, and land-friendly alternative for repairing ailing pipes. With epoxy pipe lining, damaged pipes are strengthened, ensuring longevity. The trenchless pipe lining process is economical as it saves on time, money, and workforce.
