  • When they get the news that a plumbing system needs pipe lining, Homeowners and business owners often dread the thought that their lawn or hardscaping is going to have to be torn apart in order to dig a big trench and access the buried lines. Traditional pipe replacement and repair was a laborious, time-consuming hassle for exactly that reason, but the plumbers at Mr. Rooter Plumbing now use state-of-the-art technology to carry out trenchless sewer repair methods such as pipelining.

    As the name suggests, trenchless methods like pipe lining eliminate the need to dig a trench. That means the trenchless pipe lining process is faster and ultimately more cost-effective than traditional methods. It has a minimal impact on your property, and there's no compromise in the quality of the repair. Pipelining lasts just as long, if not longer, than conventional pipe repair and is resistant to factors such as tree roots, which can be extremely damaging to buried plumbing lines.

Inspection and Assessment

Before we get started on pipe lining, our plumbers take the time to thoroughly investigate your system, diagnose the problem and determine if pipe lining is the correct solution. What happens inside wastewater disposal lines is a mystery to most homeowners, but plumbing problems can't hide from our experts. We'll perform a sewer camera inspection to examine your underground infrastructure and determine the exact nature of the problem and its location in your system. Video inspection involves attaching a small camera to a cable and lowering it into your drain, then moving it through the pipes while it records footage. Once it has been removed, your plumber can play back the footage and use it to figure out the best course of action to get the problem resolved.

In some cases, where a leak is the culprit, we’ll perform an additional leak detection service to locate the affected area before coming up with a solution to fix your leaky pipe.

Pipe Lining

Trenchless sewer pipe lining, which is also sometimes called pipe relining, is a method of sewer repair for buried wastewater lines that have suffered damage. That includes cracks, pinholes, tree root intrusion, corrosion, and other issues. Rather than removing the old, damaged pipe and putting in a new one, the pipe lining process involves the use of innovative technology to essentially insert a new pipe inside the existing one.

A "sleeve" of fabric soaked in epoxy resin is inserted into the broken pipe and pulled through. Then, an inflatable tube inside the sleeve is blown up, so it pushes the sleeve against the walls of the old pipe. Once the epoxy cures and hardens, the inflatable tube is removed, and the epoxy pipe lining essentially forms a new pipe inside the old one. The epoxy is very durable and long-lasting, and it's not easily penetrated by tree roots.

  • In all honesty, it's very rare for a homeowner to call us and tell us they've noticed signs that they need pipe lining. You know when something's not right with their drainage lines, but you usually don't realize that it's a situation that calls for a pipe lining service. The symptoms of a damaged pipe can seem very similar to the symptoms of a nasty clog, so it's far more common for homeowners to assume that's the trouble. Here are some of the signs to watch out for that may be indicating your plumbing system needs pipe lining services:

    • Water is slow to drain out of fixtures or isn't draining at all
    • Unpleasant smells coming from drains, such as rotten food odors in the kitchen, or moldy, musty smells in the bathroom
    • Strange sounds from drain lines, such as gurgling, bubbling, grinding, sucking, or banging
    • Toilet clogs often, and you don't know why
    • Toilet bubbles when you use other bathroom drains
    • Sewage backups in floor drains, toilets, showers, or bathtubs
    • Patches of grass that are suddenly more lush and green than other parts of your yard

    If you notice the signs listed above, it doesn't necessarily mean you need pipe lining. Our Memphis plumbers will come out to your property and take the time to evaluate and diagnose the problem so they can come up with the correct solution to get your drain lines functioning perfectly again.
