Key takeaways
- The pipe is cleaned first
- The liner is impregnated with resin to fit
- The liner is inverted or pulled in and expanded
- It is cured with heat or light and verified by camera
1. Cleaning and inspection
The line is jetted and scraped so the liner can bond to clean pipe. A camera survey measures length and diameter and notes branches.
2. Preparing the liner
A felt or fiberglass tube cut to length is saturated with resin and carefully calibrated to the pipe’s diameter.
3. Installing the liner
The liner is inverted with water or air pressure, or pulled in and inflated. It presses against the pipe walls and fills cracks and joints.
4. Curing
Hot water, steam or UV light cures the resin into a hard, seamless pipe. Cure time depends on the system and pipe size.
5. Reinstating connections
A cutter reopens branch lines. A final camera pass confirms the finished pipe.
Quick answers
How long does it take?
Many residential lines are lined in a day after cleaning and inspection. Larger jobs take longer.
Can I use my plumbing during curing?
Not on the lined section. We tell you when it is safe to resume.
