How Does Sewer Lining Work?

Sewer lining in Crystal is a way to repair busted sewer pipes without the need to dig up your property. It’s also a less expensive option in the long run – with trenchless sewer repairs, you don’t have to worry about having your landscaping redone or your yard resodded. So how does sewer lining work anyway? Sewer lining is also known as Cured In Place Pipe (CIPP) or epoxy lining. You still get the same strength as a new pipe but without the hassle and expense of digging.  In general, the first thing we do when we take on a sewer lining job is insert a camera into the broken pipe and inspect it. We will see what the problem is and make sure there aren’t more problems than meets the eye. We will then make sure the pipe is cleaned using a high pressure water jetter and other special tools. This way, all of the leaves, mud and other debris are cleared out of the pipe before we insert the new liner. After that, we mix up the resin needed for the inside of the sewer lining.
