Cured-in-Place Pipe Lining

Cured-in-Place Pipe Lining in Phoenix

No-Dig Pipe Lining with Up to Two Access Points

We provide cured-in-place pipe lining for homes and businesses in Phoenix and Tempe. The process places a resin-saturated liner inside a damaged sewer or drain line, then cures it to form a new pipe within the existing one. Along with pipe bursting, it is one of two trenchless methods we perform. Both can require up to two access points instead of a trench along the full pipe run.

Call (623) 257-7722 to schedule a pipe lining consultation for your Phoenix or Tempe property.

A Camera Inspection Comes Before Our Repair Recommendation

We begin with a professional inspection, including a sewer camera inspection, to assess the condition of the line. The findings help us determine whether lining, pipe bursting, or full sewer line replacement is appropriate. We also provide a price estimate before work begins so you can review the proposed approach.

Our licensed and insured plumbing company is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with no after-hours, weekend, or holiday fees.

How Cured-in-Place Pipe Lining Works

The original pipe must remain structurally sound enough to support the new liner. Once we confirm that the line is a candidate, the installation process is tailored to its condition and configuration.

A typical lining project involves these stages:

Inspecting the line: A sewer camera reveals damage, buildup, roots, and signs of a potential collapse.
Evaluating repair options: We determine whether lining, pipe bursting, or conventional replacement best fits the pipe.
Preparing the pipe: Buildup and obstructions generally must be cleared before liner installation.
Installing the liner: A resin-saturated liner is positioned inside the existing line and cured in place.
Checking the completed work: We inspect the repaired line after installation.

When Can a Sewer Pipe Be Lined?

Recurring clogs, slow drains, root intrusion, minor leaks, and small cracks can signal the need for a trenchless repair inspection. A liner can reinforce a suitable underground pipe and create a continuous interior barrier against minor leaks and root entry.

Conditions that may support lining include:

Enough structural integrity in the existing pipe to support a liner.
Minor cracks, leaking joints, or localized root intrusion.
Recurring drainage problems linked to defects within the line.
A repair route where limiting excavation is important.

Severe corrosion, major deformation, or structural collapse generally calls for another approach. Pipe bursting breaks apart the old line while pulling a replacement into position. A fully collapsed or otherwise unsuitable line may require traditional excavation and sewer line replacement.

Pipe Lining vs. Pipe Bursting & Traditional Repair

The appropriate method depends on whether the existing pipe can support a liner, needs complete replacement, or can’t be reached effectively through limited access points. We perform both trenchless options, each of which can require up to two access points rather than excavation along the entire route.

The three methods differ in these important ways:

Cured-in-place pipe lining: An epoxy resin liner is installed and cured inside a structurally usable pipe, leaving the original line around the new interior surface.
Pipe bursting: The old pipe is broken apart while a replacement is pulled through the same route. This method replaces the line rather than lining its interior.
Traditional replacement: A trench is dug to expose and remove the damaged pipe. This approach may be necessary when the condition of the line or the available access rules out trenchless work.

How Phoenix Soil & Tree Roots Affect Sewer Lines

Desert soil movement during wet and dry cycles can place stress on buried pipe joints and existing defects. Caliche-heavy ground can also make full excavation more difficult, so a limited-access repair is worth considering when the line qualifies.

Roots from mature trees can enter openings in aging clay or cast-iron sewer lines, causing blockages and cracks. A camera inspection shows the location and extent of root intrusion and whether the pipe retains enough structural integrity for a liner.

Caring for a Lined Sewer or Drain Pipe

Once cured, the liner creates a smooth interior surface that resists minor leaks and future root intrusion. Its long-term performance depends on the condition of the original pipe, the installation, wastewater use, and ongoing maintenance.

Grease, debris, and other material can still accumulate inside a lined pipe. Periodic drain cleaning and follow-up camera inspections can identify buildup or new concerns. If slow drains or recurring clogs return, arrange an inspection rather than assuming the liner has failed.

Find the Right Trenchless Repair for Your Property
