What is Pipe Lining

Pipe lining is the process of fixing broken, backed up, or cracked pipes from the inside without excavation. The pipe lining process involves four steps. Essentially, it simply means inserting a pipe within a pipe. These steps are:

Camera Inspection - Before we start the repairing process, our experts at Plumbing Today of Southern NY maneuver a sewer camera into the pipe to pinpoint the exact position of a crack or broken pipe.

Measuring - Using the identified position, we measure the linear footage and diameter of the pipe.

Cleaning the Existing Pipe - Then, using mechanical methods or hydro jetting, we clean the pipe to remove scale buildup, tree roots, clogs, or any other debris in your pipe.

Inserting a Seamless Lining - Once we are sure your pipe is clean, we get the pipe tubing and use epoxy resin to saturate it. Then, with the help of an inverter drum, we turn it inside out and insert the tubing into the damaged pipe. Once we complete that, the curing process begins to remove all moisture and help tubing meld with the pipe.
