No-dig pipe repair, while somewhat unknown, is not a new process. Designed as a step-by-step approach for specific piping needs, there is little need to dig trenches when repairing commercial systems. However, not everyone understands how no-dig pipe repair works. With the associated cured-in-place pipe repair techniques (CIPP), our contractors can roll with the punches when a pipe job becomes a point of frustration. No-dig approaches are a clear solution to commercial breakdowns.
Truth About No-Dig Pipe Repair: CIPP Makes Infiltration Easier
No-dig pipe repair makes pipe infiltration safer and faster. Our experts do the work through small entry points, increasing the safety for contractors or anyone else who frequents the site of repairs. No-dig pipe repair eliminates the chance of injuries on the job. Trenchless pipe repair gives workers better avenues for infiltration.
CIPP video inspections can highlight better pathways to the source of a leak. A flexible camera can help expose damaged pipes that are tough to reach. Without the need for trench digging, we can diagnose loose pipe sections and leaks, with recorded footage to aid the overall approach (which is good for use with insurance claims).
No-Dig Pipe Repair Truth: Multiple Pipe Needs are Cleared in One Effort
One advantage of no-dig pipe repair is that multiple pipe needs can be addressed at one time. CIPP contractors use slip-liners, which are inserted pipe liners made of sturdy fabrics. By using slip-liners, our contractors can reinforce pipes from the inside. Once a pipe is cleaned and free of any debris, slip-liners are fed through manholes or other less-destructive entry points, where a special resin mix will adhere the liners to the pipe interiors. Slip-liners can fix leaks and other common pipe failures in a single process.
In a similar fashion, APR contractors can remove damaged pipes and move a new one into place in the same motion. The replacement is inserted at the entry point of the existing tube while the old pipe is burst and extracted. This process allows the old pipe to be destroyed while drawing the new one into place for curing. This approach lets us remove all pieces of the old pipe quickly and safely. With CIPP no-dig repairs and adjustments, we can address pipe repairs and replacements by using proven methods and technology.
False: Traditional Pipe Repair Has Better Innovations
An easy misconception of pipe repairs is that traditional methods are rock-solid. These beliefs come from both loyalty to various services and the reliance on one way to do things. For instance, when a commercial pipeline breaks down, it might not seem like you need to do your research. Why not use the services that you always have, or that your family has?
Tradition can be a good thing, but when it comes to costly and wasteful pipe breakdowns, modern innovations can save you a lot of trouble. Traditional pipe repair does not really change, nor is it equipped to deal with every pipe issue across the board. CIPP no-dig pipe repair is designed to change procedures for the better. For example, our contractors use Ultraviolet CIPP, which is an enhancement of traditional pipe repairs. Cured-in-place pipe repair generally takes 24 hours to complete, although the timeframe varies on a job-to-job basis. Traditional repairs take much longer, often utilizing unpredictable standards that lead to more troubles and unfinished work. By exposing slip-liners and resin to UV, the results are faster but just as strong as using heat or other elements.
Facts about UV CIPP Repair
Advanced Pipe Repair’s UV CIPP repair cuts curing timeframes in half, often taking less than a day to harden. With no-dig pipe repair, this is a rate of 7 meters in 7 minutes – far more impressive than traditional resin curing. A CIPP contractor arrives with a set of tools to get to work without delay, which saves you money and causes fewer delays because that means less labor and wait time. The truth is, traditional pipe repair methods will never have the innovation that CIPP does because that is the nature of tradition: it does not change or update to meet the needs of modern commercial pipelines. APR’s contractors use CIPP because it is necessary to stabilize pipe sections in a way that lasts.
Advanced Pipe Repair’s CIPP
No-dig pipe repair is a natural evolution of common and traditional pipe repair. A cured-in-place pipe repair situation benefits the property owners by making things less of a hassle. We can remove any loose pipe fragments without causing any collateral damage to the grounds, foundations, or property interiors. Such convenience is uncommon when it comes to using traditional methods for sewer or chemical pipe repair. But CIPP is about more than convenience. In fact, our resin bonds the pipe parts together in a way that will stand the test of time, while also eliminating any sign of damage.
CIPP leads to a reinforced pipe system. By establishing new sections or installing slip-liners, our contractors make adjustments to an established pipe system while keeping the existing pipe sections in place. CIPP relies on the use of hot water, UV light, and steam to expertly cure pipes into place. Depending on the job circumstances, these tactics can lead to low-risk repairs. Ultimately, a hassle-free solution for commercial pipe repair is something to believe in.
CIPP repair allows the contractor to remove unwanted debris and properly clean up. No matter what the situation is on your commercial properties, there are better ways to handle pipe problems than relying on traditional methods that cannot address every situation without unexpected problems. CIPP pipe repair can address any commercial, industrial, or municipal sewer pipes that are causing your troubles.
