Is Pipe Lining a Long-Term Answer to Sewer Damage?

The simple answer to the question of whether pipe lining is a suitable long-term solution for damaged piping is a resounding “yes” in almost every case. The team here at Bob Oates Sewer & Rooter believes that our trenchless pipe lining services provide results that are comparable to traditional pipe repair methods in that they can both provide long-lasting results you can greatly benefit from.

Here are the reasons why we believe that a trenchless sewer repair in Tacoma, WA can be a long-term solution.

Strength and Durability

At first glance, the liner material used in trenchless pipe replacement may seem flimsy and weak, but it cures to form an extremely hard surface that can stand up to long-term exposure to wastewater. The liner also serves to strengthen the existing pipeline so that it can remain in place for many years to come.

Addresses Cracks and Separations

On most trenchless pipe repair projects, we’re able to insert the new lining in a single piece that spans the entire length of the pipeline. This means that all connections between pipe sections will be covered and sealed. Tree roots and soil that were once able to enter the pipe through cracks between sections are permanently blocked from finding their way in and causing further damage.

Minimal Maintenance Required

Once a pipeline has been repaired using our trenchless sewer replacement technology, it shouldn’t need additional maintenance beyond what’s expected with regular piping. The smooth interior surface promotes effective wastewater flow and prevents the likelihood of pipe blockage unless an extremely large object is accidentally discarded down a nearby toilet or drain.
