For fast, effective sewer lining services, MNS Plumbing is the service provider you can count on. Our trenchless sewer repair methods take the worry and frustration out of any sewer problem, big or small.

Today’s trenchless sewer lining technology eliminates the expensive excavation that traditional sewer methods require to expose a damaged pipe for replacement. Instead of digging up the pipe, we access the damaged area through built-in openings that allow technicians to clear away routine blockages.

Since it takes little or no digging to expose the necessary cleanout ports, we avoid damaging hardscaping or landscaping that can be costly to repair or replace after the sewer repair is complete. In addition, because we don’t have to waste time digging up a large section of the property, our sewer lining solutions typically cost roughly 50% less than other methods and take only 24 hours to complete, significantly reducing the hassle for our clients.

When we begin the sewer lining process, we will start by thoroughly inspecting the pipes with our video inspection system to carefully identify all the damaged areas or showing signs of deterioration. We ensure we correct the sewer issues without doing unnecessary work that could add to the overall expense.

Once we’ve located the problem areas, we clean the interior of the pipes with high-pressure water to ensure the liner will firmly adhere to the pipe’s surface. With the pipe prepared, we introduce a flexible sleeve infused with specialized resin and maneuver it in place, then inflate it to form a new epoxy pipe against the inside of the damaged one.

The benefits of no-dig sewer lining

During the next 24 hours, the epoxy resin cures to form a cured-in-place pipe lining or CIPP lining. The CIPP liner increases water flow and improves sewer functionality. It’s also resistant to rust and corrosion, and its smooth, durable qualities help prevent tree roots from being able to penetrate the liner and infest the pipe.

These qualities allow sewer lining to be a permanent solution to sewer line worries, resulting in a sewer line serving a home or business for 50 years or more.

Sewer lining is effective in residential, commercial, and industrial applications and can even extend the life of municipal sewer lines. In multi-family housing communities such as row houses and high-rise apartment buildings, it avoids inconveniencing residents by keeping the completion time and labor work to a minimum.

Commercial enterprises can count on our sewer lining services for fast, discreet correction of sewer issues that could have a negative impact on your workforce and professional or retail clientele. Factory settings particularly benefit from sewer lining, where a sewer failure could result in a loss of productivity on a large portion of the production floor or even a complete shutdown while the sewer line is dug up and replaced.
