Many home or business owners in Dunedin have never heard of Trenchless Pipelining. The primary reason for this is that the average plumber cannot make the large investment needed to perform this money and time saving service. Dunedin Plumbers has made the investment and for the past 7 years, we have been repairing and rehabilitating plumbing pipes without having to dig up our customers floors, driveways, parking lots and concrete foundations. The cost of a traditional pipe replacement can sometimes be double the cost of trenchless pipelining. This is usually due to the fact that once your flooring or driveway is ripped up, the repair costs for fixing the destruction can double the job cost.

Pipelining can be performed on a variety of plumbing pipes including PCV, cast iron, stainless steel, clay, concrete, copper, galvanized steel and Orangeberg. A typical pipelining job takes about 5-6 hours which includes a few hours of curing or drying time. As soon as the pipe liner is cured, the pipe can be put back in service. All of our pipelining materials meet or exceed ASTM specification. This means our pipe liners will last a minimum of 50 years and they are completely safe for drinking water.

Installation of Trenchless Pipelining

Installation of CIPP or trenchless pipelining takes as little as 2-3 hours plus drying / curing time. The first step in any pipelining project is to send a video camera down the pipe to find the problem and evaluate what type of materials will be needed. Next, the pipe is prepped and cleaned so the pipe liner has a clean and smooth surface to bond too. Next, the materials are cut and setup (liner material is saturated with a mixture of high strength epoxy resins). Next, the liner is pulled or pushed into place using a pulley system or air pressure depending on the situation. Once, the pipe liner is in place over the damaged pipe, a balloon like device is inflated inside of the pipe liner, causing the liner to press and bond to the original host pipe. After 3 hours or drying and curing the balloon is removed and the new pipe is inspected for proper coverage and installation. If it passes inspection, the water can be turned on and tested. The average installation from start to finish is usually 5-6 hours total.
