    • What Is Cured-In-Place-Pipe?
      A epoxy-saturated felt liner made of polyester, fiberglass cloth or a number of other materials suitable for epoxy impregnation, is inverted or pulled into a damaged pipe. It is usually done from the upstream access point (manhole or excavation).
    • Is Lining Less Expensive?
      Generally, it is less expensive. Sometimes the CIPP method might be closer to the cost of traditional excavation, but there is not landscape restoration that is necessary, no asphalt to restore in the roadway, and no mismatched patches of concrete to worry about.
    • Does It Shrink the Size of My Sewer Line?
      Many excavation companies that do not offer CIPP will use this as an excuse why someone shouldn't use this repair method. The short answer, yes, it is decreased by 3/16, of an inch. Though the size of your new line is smaller, a 4" sewer line that is concrete, cast-iron or clay has up to a 75% deceased flow rate of a CIPP sewer line. In reality, the CIPP can handle more flow and waste than older sewer lines.
    • How Long Does This Product Last?
      Cured-in-Place-Pipe (CIPP), sometimes referred to as "lining" or "sleeving" was first used in 1971 on a 36-inch sewer line at a mushroom farm in England. That relined pipe is still in operation today. The technology has only improved since the first CIPP installation. Sewer Renewal Specialists offers a 45-year transferable warranty but in reality, this new pipe will last as long as PVC, HDPE, or ABS.
    • What is the warranty?
      We include warranties with all of our repairs. We offer a 45-year warranty on all CIPP projects and a 10-year warranty on all Excavation projects. Details will be included in your quote for your review.
