Trenchless Pipe Repair: An Eco-Friendly Approach

trenchless pipe repair

Over the years, various industries have taken more care to offer eco-friendly alternatives to older, less refined procedures for trenchless pipe repair. For the pipe repair industry, traditional pipe installations required a heavy amount of digging. All this extra work is due to the pipe specialists having to dig in order to reach the pipes, remove those pipes, and then possibly dig some more to set the new ones in place.

Trenchless pipe installations and repairs are much more eco-friendly, along with being less expensive. Instead of searching underground to reach the
problematic lines, the pipe expert can use a pre-existing access point to do the work, such as an outdoor utility hole where the contractor can slip
the tools in, or insert a slip-liner tube. For vertical pipe repairs, contractors can often do the work remotely from a safe spot on the rooftop.

With no-dig pipe repair, instead of replacing the old pipe completely, the pipe expert will insert a smaller, thinner tube into the old one, which
eliminates any need for destroying the landscape and surrounding nature. Ultimately, these tactics help to stop noise pollution, chemical leak
accidents, and air pollution.

TRENCHLESS PIPE REPAIR WITHOUT NOISE POLLUTION

Traditional pipe repair unfortunately features a good amount of noise. If you choose traditional pipe repair for your commercial properties, chances
are you will have to hear heavy machinery starting and stopping while the property occupants attempt to go about life or business as usual.

Like regular pollution, noise pollution can cause health problems too. Loud noises interfere with concentration and sleep, causing high stress levels,
especially if the job is already difficult. Noise pollution can lead to even more health problems, such as hypertension and compromised immune
systems.

For eco-friendly pipe repair, one should consider noise and other types of pollution that can negatively alter the outcome of a job. After all, if
your commercial property, such as an office building or government site where people work, might be heavily populated by visitors, tenants, or
employees. Noise pollution can limit productivity across the board.

Advanced Pipe Repair knows that when it comes to noise pollution, CIPP is an eco-friendly choice. greener choice. Thanks to surgical entry point work,
digging-related noises are few and far between. Furthermore, CIPP maintains a relatively peaceful environment while the job is completed. On-site
contractors can properly concentrate and deliver upon a job well done. Our team can come and go without adding to the noise.

STOPPING CHEMICAL LEAKS

One of the most dangerous side effects of traditional pipe repair is the accidental release of chemicals, gases, and other hazardous materials.
Whenever digging is needed to reach a pipeline, contractors are often working in tight spaces where even the smallest mistake can have dire
consequences. Using shovels and backhoes to dig trenches can be a difficult process to do in a safe manner.

Not to say that there is always a chance of chemical leaks, but there are certain factors that increase those chances. For instance, older pipes and
sewer systems can become brittle over the years. As a result, when work is done on nearby lines, tools and machinery can knock pipes loose. Even
vibrations are enough to cause chemicals to leak out, or to flood the area with copious amounts of water. The latter can create issues like trapped
moisture and water pockets, which can become a breeding ground for bacteria and mold.

Obviously, you do not want these pollutants anywhere near a water supply or living grounds. Advanced Pipe Repair can make sections replacements,
maintenance, and repairs without digging around potentially sensitive pipes. Cured-in-place pipe methods allow contractors to work around extensive
digging by using special tools to insert pipe liners and resin bonding formulas. Even more impressive is the ability to cure that resin in less than
24 hours. Our pipe specialists can safely apply the solution you need without endangering any person or any nearby lines.

NO AIR POLLUTION WITH CIPP AND TRENCHLESS PIPE REPAIR

With traditional pipe repair, extensive digging can cause dust and exhaust clouds to permeate the surrounding area. For one thing, this does not
create a safe working environment because concentration will be lost, not to mention actual health issues that affect breathing. Trenchless pipe
installations will minimize air pollution.

Obviously, the digging process is far from simple when pipe repair requires digging or venturing under a foundation. This process might require heavy
machinery, at least if you stick to the traditional methods to get the job done. The machinery itself is part of the problem, releasing copious
amounts of exhaust into the air, which makes traditional pipe repair a poor choice for keeping your commercial property associated with green
policies.

CIPP, on the other hand, does not require heavy machinery, and it doesn’t release diesel fumes. Trenchless pipe replacement does not come with hidden costs, such as rerouting traffic expenses, or the upkeep for large digging rental equipment. Landscaping repair costs can accumulate after the pipe has been replaced, which ultimately does you no favors. Advanced Pipe Repair’s trenchless pipe replacements come with none of those hidden costs, so it can help you save money overall.

HOW TRENCHLESS PIPE REPAIR WORKS FOR YOU

Since digging ditches is not required with CIPP, trenchless pipe installation saves time and money for your project. With cured-in-place pipe repair,
once the inner pipe cures and adheres to the outer tube, you can restore the water flow to its usual pressure. Traditional pipe repair will wreak
havoc on your landscaping. It goes without saying, but a pipe specialist will be unable to repair your pipes if they can’t get to your lines. This
makes digging a tactic they will resort to.

With traditional pipe repair, the digging process will only displace grass, flowers, and soil. In extreme cases, traditional pipe repair has been
known to destroy entire gardens, sidewalks, and even streets when things do not go according to plan. CIPP requires no digging at all, making it a
popular choice for companies that want to go green with their pipe repair needs. CIPP leaves landscaping alone, so you won’t have to replant any
flowers or re-lay concrete.
