Experiencing Repeated Drain Backups? Our Coral Springs Trenchless Pipe Lining Service Restores Underground Pipes For 50+ Years, Without Excavation!
Homes in Coral Springs, Florida, built before 1972, have cast iron pipes under the slab. Cast iron pipes only have about a 50-year lifespan, due to corrosion at the bottom of the pipe, which eventually makes the pipe so thin, that a crack forms that has serrated edges that capture debris. This causes repeated backups in the drains. Each backup costs $200 to $500 to clear, and eventually, the plumber will video inspect the pipe and discover but it has to be replaced. The traditional method of repair is to replace the pipes with new schedule 40 PVC that involves either digging from the outside of the house under the slab, or digging through the concrete inside the house. This typically takes about 8 weeks, and usually the kitchen cabinets have to be replaced, in addition to the floor surface inside the house. The whole process can cost $50,000 to $60,000 for a 2000 square foot house.

This 50-year warranty pipe lining stops backups permanently
However, our trenchless pipe lining technologies that we have been using since 2004, can re-line the inside of those pipes, without any excavation. All the work is done from the outside of the house, takes about four days to install, and has a 50-year transferable warranty. And it only cost about 40% as much as excavation! We currently do 400+ homes a year, and many of them are in Coral Springs because that area contains so many homes that were built before 1972. Once our process is complete, we make a video recording of every line pipe and email those links to the customer, with their 50-year warranty. During the installation, the homeowners can stay in their homes and use the plumbing almost all the time

How Is It Installed, And What’s The Cost In Miami-Dade County?
From outside your property, we open the pipe, clean out the rust, scale, and roots, and then install a new “pipe liner” or sleeve which has been saturated with a self-hardening epoxy resin. The liner contains a balloon which is inflated for 3 hours while the resin becomes rock-hard. Then the balloon is removed and a video inspection is performed to ensure correct installation. The pipe is put back into use immediately. A 2,000 square foot house would cost about $17,000 to re-line. Learn more pipe lining installation details here.

How Strong Is The Pipe Lining?
The pipe liner is a fabric tube made of polyester which is then “wet out” with a 2-part epoxy resin which is mixed together in a certain proportion. In about 30 minutes resin heats up by itself to 180 degrees Fahrenheit due to an exothermic chemical reaction and becomes rock hard.
The resulting new inner pipe liner is so strong that it is a stand-alone pipe, not needing the old exterior pipe for structural integrity. The liner is designed to go under load-bearing footers, roads, driveways, etc.
