Pipe relining is a trenchless repair method that usually takes 1-2 days to complete. It can restore pipes for 20-50 years at a fraction of replacement cost without major disruption. Learn more about the typical project timeline for pipe relining. We provide professional pipe relining services.
Pipe relining is a trenchless repair method for damaged drain pipes without the need for expensive excavation. Abbotsbury Plumbing provides this efficient alternative to traditional pipe replacement.
In pipe relining, an epoxy resin-saturated liner is placed into the damaged pipe and cured, forming a robust new pipe inside the old one. This durable repair, with a lifespan of 30 to 50 years, addresses damage from various causes including tree root intrusion and corrosion.
Compared with tearing up floors and foundations to replace old pipes, pipe relining is quicker, cleaner and often more affordable. Lasting only 1 to 3 days with minimal impact on your home or business, it prevents the hassle and expense of repairing surroundings damaged during pipe replacement.
Once you engage a professional service like Abbotsbury Plumbing, the pipe relining process unfolds in several important stages.
The curing stage gives the liner rigidity, allowing it to stand alone as a 'pipe within a pipe’ once cured. This creates a durable, jointless and corrosion-resistant solution designed to outlast traditional piping, with little disruption to your Abbotsbury premises.
The complete pipe relining process typically takes 1-3 days. Abbotsbury Plumbing will guide you through each phase, tailored to your specific needs.
Performing a thorough inspection of damaged pipes is a crucial first step for determining if pipe relining is suitable. At Abbotsbury Plumbing, we use cutting-edge CCTV pipe inspection cameras which can help visually assess the interior condition of pipes.
The high-resolution CCTV footage enables our technicians to pinpoint damage such as cracks, blockages, and tree root intrusion. It also assesses the level of deterioration, crucial in deciding if the pipe can structurally support the new liner.
Our experts utilise CCTV footage to diagnose and advise whether pipe relining is optimal for your scenario, allowing us to customise the approach, resin formula, and curing technique to your pipe’s condition and layout.
This precise assessment sets your pipe relining project up for success from the very start.
CCTV inspection enables quick evaluation of pipes for relining suitability and expedites diagnosis and repair, eliminating the need for immediate digging or exposure of pipes.
Technicians use high-pressure water jetting and mechanical scraping to clean the pipe before installing the liner, ensuring the inner surface is ready for optimal adhesion with the epoxy liner.
The pipe cleaning process removes contaminants and conditions the pipe walls, ensuring maximum surface contact between the liner and existing pipe. A clean, intact surface allows the liner to bond tightly to the original pipe, leading to long-lasting structural integrity and preventing future leaks or failures.
Proper preparation for pipe relining can be crucial for successful, durable repairs. Our extensive cleaning service lays the groundwork for long-term results by enabling complete contact between the liner and pipe. With over 25 years servicing the Abbotsbury area, you can trust Abbotsbury Plumbing to deliver professional pipe preparations tailored to your situation.
There are two main pipe relining installation techniques our technicians use depending on pipe layout and damage:
Both techniques use robust epoxy resin to restore decaying pipes. The liner sets inside the pipe to form a solid polymer barrier.
Our Abbotsbury Plumbing specialists will determine the most suitable installation method based on pipe layout, access points and damage extent. Relying on inversion lining’s pressure or pull-in-place relining’s resin insertion, we tailor the procedure to your unique situation for effective, minimally invasive pipe renewal.
The installed epoxy liner is cured to harden into a robust, waterproof barrier. Abbotsbury Plumbing employs advanced, eco-friendly methods for this process.
We may employ ambient temperature curing which allows the liner to cure slowly over several hours without external energy sources. However, steam, hot water or UV light curing speeds up the process to just 30-90 minutes.
UV light curing involves inflating the liner with air then shone UV rays to quickly harden the resin. This eco-friendly method avoids water wastage and can be used on various types pipes, including different sizes and materials. Steam or hot water curing instead heats the liner directly to accelerate hardening but uses more water.
Our specialists assess your unique situation, damaged pipe layout and project timeline to determine the most suitable curing method. We balance repair effectiveness, convenience and sustainable practises.
Relining pipes, in contrast to traditional replacement techniques, offers multiple benefits, asserting its efficacy as a lasting solution.
