Drain lining is a plumbing process involving installing a pipe sleeve or lining into a drain or sewer, typically made from polypropylene-lined rubber. This method is used to repair the damage and leaks in drainage systems without removing the original pipe.
Many organizations offer quality blocked drain services like Chobham Blocked Drains. Traditional drainage repair methods are costly, disruptive, and extensive. Draining line is the most innovative No-Dig pipe lining system designed for specialist Pipe welders/Drain layers/Engineers.
The Overview
NO DIG TECHNOLOGY is a technique for installing pipes inside existing pipes. This system uses a patented tool, the inner pipe liner (IPL), to slide inside the damaged pipe and an outer pipe to slide over the IPL and repair the damage.
The entire process can be done using standard equipment, without specialized tools or heavy machinery, without disrupting traffic in areas with roadways and sidewalks, without turning off the water. They have minimal if excavation needed.
With No Dig Technology, also known as trenchless, we can restore pipe breaks in the ground and install new pipes. This process of locating and digging up a problem site is eliminated. Instead, the new line is installed within the existing pipe, improving efficiency.
The Process
The new pipe is molded into the damaged pipe by an ingenious method called ‘inversion’. Once complete, the inversion process is reversed, and the molds are withdrawn. This technique gives a perfect fit inside the old pipe, significantly reducing any time to investigate final trial fits before repair occurs.
The drain lining consists of a unique high-density felt material impregnated with a combination of oil and resin. It is compacted into the inside pipe, forming a solid impermeable membrane that will resist the passage of all gasses and liquids. The liners closely conform to the wall thickness of any size of pipe from 2″ up to 8″ in diameter. All liners are available in specific length rolls in increments of 1/2″ each.
Best For
The no-dig pipe lining system is a fully bonded, factory-applied pipe repair system that relines underground pipework without digging up the ground. This relining solution applies to pipes measuring 75mm and above in diameter within the UK. The relining process is far faster and less disruptive than other traditional excavation methods, thereby reducing cost and environmental impact.
No-Dig technology is a cost-effective, environmentally friendly alternative to traditional excavation and repair methods for drain lines. It is a safe process that requires minimal disruption for the homeowner, providing a reliable and long-lasting solution.
Trenchless drain lining of pipes is an alternative to pipe replacement that eliminates the need for total excavation and repair to adjacent infrastructure. This technology also has a positive impact on the environment.
Chobham Blocked Drains are ideal for repairing pipe blockages caused by tree roots, grease build-ups, and loose debris. The relining material is custom manufactured for each property, so it configures the existing pipes perfectly. No need to change your drains or install expensive lines that may not be necessary.
