Revolutionary, though it may be, trenchless repair technology has been around for some time. Seeing your place turned into an excavation site for a simple repipe has been elegantly avoided for a few decades now. However, as with every new technological stride, the question of its limitations inevitably rise. With the no-dig pipe repair, they form a question of size or whether a pipe is indeed too big to be relined.
The short of it is no, our plumbing experts can reline a pipe of any size, anytime. The long one follows.
Los Angeles Storm Drain System Tested
If you’re planning the big pipes repair in Los Angeles, chances are that we’re talking about sewer lines or storm drainpipe. And there’s something strange going on in L.A.; after a 5-year long bone-dry weather, this year will probably go down as one of the wettest in the county’s recorded history. National Weather Service sounded the alarming news that January precipitation levels weren’t quite normal, a trend that followed suit during most of the winter. More rain means more sweat for your drain, and we can help your face all that precipitation prepared.
Relining Large Pipes
There are two ways of dealing with big pipe problem: the first is traditional, it involves digging out the Earth’s bowels and turning your property into a dust fest for at least a week.
The other way to deal with a large pipe problem saves you the trouble by a way of trenchless relining of the damaged pipes. All it takes is an access point through which an epoxy resin impregnated tube is inserted and then inflated until the content hardens creating a solid pipe inside the corroded one. The whole process takes a significantly less time and is in effect a lot more cost effective. The fiberglass tube insertion is preceded by cleaning out any debris that may have populated the pipe.
After a new pipe is cured in place, our technician will check whether the lining went smoothly enough. The end-result is a brand-new sewage or stormwater system that will help you deal with the Los Angeles unpredictable weather.
Pipe Size Really Doesn’t Matter
Rarely is this statement more true that in the case of trenchless repair. No matter the pipe size, be it anywhere from 6″ to 72″, we can successfully cure one inside it. And there is hardly a more pressing need to repair than with the storm systems, given that their reinforced concrete is extremely susceptible to deterioration. Make sure to at least do a preventive video check-up before it’s too late.
