How Do I Know if I Need Help?

Cured In Place Pipe - New Sewer Pipe Lining Technology

The process of relining a sewer or drain is referred to as CIPP or Cured In Place Pipe. This process involves installing a new pipe within a pipe and is a trenchless sewer repair method that is rapidly gaining popularity as it requires no digging or excavation to be completed. The new liner can be installed through existing access points called cleanouts or alternatively from a manhole in the street. There are two primary types of applications, the ‘pull-in-place’ (PIP) method and the ’inversion’ method. SOS is well experienced in both. 

Here's How It Works:

• The existing sewer line is first blown free of roots, greases, and debris using very high pressure water method known as hydro jetting and with the use of specialized rotating mechanical cutting heads . This effectively cleans the existing sewer pipe and prepares it for the new Cured in Place Pipe.
•  The new flexible PVC infused liner is first saturated with environmentally approved epoxy resin to 100% saturation.
•  The new seamless sewer liner is then installed using a special machine that blows and inverts the new liner into place using high pressure air.
• Once the new sewer liner is in place, a bladder is then inserted through the new sewer liner and pressurized to mold the new liner to the interior of the existing sewer pipe.
• Once the liner cures, the bladder is removed leaving a strong new sewer pipe that is extremely resistant to stress, cracking, and future root intrusion, a leading cause of sewer line failure.

CIPP Has Saved Contractors and Business Owners From Disaster

In many cases, failed existing sewer lines run under streets, buildings, and other structures that would have needed to be excavated to expose the entire length of the existing pipe and replace it. This can mean significant expense. business downtime, and thousand of dollars in collateral construction costs and lost business revenue. With new CIPP, hundreds of feet of sewer line can now be repaired in just days and with little or no excavation required.

CIPP Has Been Utilized by Many Cities, Private Businesses, and residential applications all across the country

CIPP has been widely used by Cities, Contractors, and Private Businesses on 1000's of projects across the country saving businesses the nightmare and expense of traditional dig up and replace sewer repair methods. It can be used on nearly any diameter and length of sewer pipe. The lining creates a smooth and seamless pipe-within-a-pipe so strong that roots can no longer penetrate the sewer lines and calcification is no longer a concern.

What Causes a Clogged Drain?
Many things can cause headaches with your drains and sewer lines. Here in Southern California, seismic activity can move pipes. Tree roots and calcification lead to major sewer and drain problems, costing Orange County property owners—homes, businesses and municipalities—millions of dollars in damage each year.

How Do I Know if I Need Help?
Sewer lines become backed-up over time, and there's no telling when they will be completely clogged. Clogged sewer lines can become an environmental catastrophe. Expelled waste into streets and beaches lead to health concerns with the exposure to harmful bacteria and mold contamination. The stench that accompanies such waste is not only unbearable, but once it seeps into business or living spaces, it is practically impossible to remove.

That's why it's important to have your sewer line inspected before problems begin. S.O.S. Plumbing & Expert Drain Cleaning Service uses a variety of methods, like elctronic line location and high def cameras, to inspect sewer lines. Unlike other plumbing companies, we carry cameras on the back of all of our trucks, and our technicians are trained to use the specialized equipment and troubleshoot any problems on your property.
