Cured-In-Place Pipe Repair

How Does Cured-In-Place Pipe Repair Work?

Cured In Place Pipe repair is a revolutionary trenchless rehabilitation method that creates a new pipe within the existing damaged one. The process begins with a thorough inspection and cleaning of the affected pipe. Then, a flexible liner saturated with a special resin is inserted into the damaged pipe. This liner is typically made of a felt or fiberglass material that's highly durable and resistant to corrosion. Once in place, the liner is inflated, pressing it against the walls of the old pipe. The resin is then cured, or hardened, creating a seamless, jointless new pipe that's structurally sound and can even be stronger than the original.

At Trenchless Innovations, we utilize advanced UV curing technology for many of our CIPP installations. UV curing offers several advantages over traditional heat curing methods, including faster curing times, improved quality control, and reduced environmental impact. The UV light activates the resin, causing it to harden rapidly and creating a supremely durable new pipe in a fraction of the time required by other methods.

What Are The Benefits Of Cured-In-Place Pipe Repair?

CIPP repair has numerous advantages over traditional pipe replacement methods, including:

• Your Yard Stays Safe: CIPP requires little to no digging, so your beautiful landscaping is preserved.
• It's More Cost-Effective: Since you don't need the extensive excavation required for traditional methods, you can significantly reduce your overall repair costs.
• It's More Time-Effective: An excavation project can take from several days up to a week to complete. CIPP repairs are typically done in one day, two at the max.
• Enjoy Extra Durability: The new pipe will be stronger than what you currently have, and is rated to last at least 50 years, so it's an exceptional long-term solution.
• Better Flow: Without the corrosion or mottling of your current pipes, the smooth new pipe allows water to travel more efficiently.
• No Job Too Big Or Too Small: CIPP can be used on all types and sizes of pipes, from residential lines to municipal mains.
• Environmentally Friendly: No excavation plus eco-friendly resins means CIPP has a lower environmental impact than other methods.
