Drain Re-Lining

   
  What is pipe relining?
It is simply a method of placing a new pipe in an existing damaged pipe without the need for excavation. The new pipe is moulded into the damaged pipe by an ingenious method called “inversion” using water or air pressure.

At Drain Technology we use different types and methods of pipe relining depending on the application and the surrounding environment.

 
Benefits of relining a pipe over Excavation
  • Minimal cost
  • Minimal disruption or inconvenience
  • Strengthens existing pipe
  • Resistant to leaks or root penetration
  • Drains return to full operation quicker!

Small crack appears due to accidental overloading or ground movement.

Due to lack of soil support crack grows into a fracture as it cannot take load above it.
Pipe loses its circular shape.
Pipe collapses due to sudden loading that caves soil inwards.
