PIPE RELINING Carlingford

Pipe relining is often referred to as ‘trenchless’ because almost no digging is required. If the plumber can gain access to the pipe segment in question without digging anything, then that would be the priority option. So how exactly is pipe relining in Parramatta done?

1. Inspection conducted – Upon receipt of the inquiry or request, a team of plumbers will come to your property to inspect the damaged or broken pipe. CCTV pipe inspection is conducted by inserting a camera into the pipe and checking the extent of damage, as well as its exact location. Usually, it’s at this moment when they would know how much your potential expenses would be. 
2. Pipe and material preparation – Two things should be prepared before the actual pipe relining procedure. First would be the pipe segment where the leak or damage was observed. A high-pressure water jetter is usually used to take out any sludge or substance that may hinder the resin from sticking to the pipe. If this is not done thoroughly, there may be problems when the substance begins its curing process. The second thing to be prepared is the liner, which needs to be soaked into the pipe lining resin. This process makes sure that they adhere to the host pipe. 
3. Pipe relining proper – Once everything is set, the plumbers will insert the liner into the pipe. Then, they would also insert an inflatable bladder inside the liner, which would then be expanded with air pressure so that the liner would take the shape of the pipe’s interior. The resin would then stick to the pipe’s inner walls, where it would cure and harden. If there is too much damage on the pipe, UV light may be applied to make the curing process faster.
4. Final checks – After a couple of hours at most, the plumbers would check once more using the video camera if the cured resin has completely created a ‘new pipe’ within the old one. If it cured successfully, then the client can expect durability that could last for decades. No more worries for the heirloom house. 

As you can see, pipe replacement through pipe relining is straightforward and can be finished much faster than conventional plumbing techniques.
