Pipe Relining

Sewer systems can have issues due to a variety of reasons. Sewer pipes that are installed incorrectly, damaged, or old can cause problems in the sewer system, interrupting drainage and sewage flow. To keep your pipe system running smoothly, Ben Franklin Plumbing offers Pipe Relining service which creates a pipe-within-a-pipe to restore drainage and flow.

Issues that Pipe Relining can fix:

1. Root damaged pipes: tree roots can cause damage to a sewer pipe by infiltrating it and clogging it. A pipe relining will make it more difficult for the tree roots to interfere with the sewer system
2. Unsealed joint connections: if joints are not completely sealed, sewage will leak out from the sewer system. Pipe relining prevents leakage by covering up the unsealed parts
3. Cracks or holes: over time, a sewer pipe can develop cracks or holes in it that leak out sewage. Pipe relining can cover the cracks and holes to make sure that the sewer system does not leak
4. Missing pipes: if a pipe is not where it is supposed to be, the sewer system will not work properly. In this case, the pipe relining will actually serve as the missing pipe.

Benefits of Pipe Relining

• Seamless and durable: during pipe relining, the interior of old, corroded and weakened pipes is lined with an extremely durable plastic coating, effectively creating a "pipe within a pipe."
• Non-hazardous: all materials used in the pipe relining process are non-hazardous. One of the most common materials in the process is epoxy, a plastic found in paint, adhesives, wind energy tools, and art.
• Protective: not only does the pipe relining protect the pipes, but it also protects any electrical conduit lines that may run through the pipe
• Non-invasive: pipe relining does not require any trench creation.

Trenchless Pipe Relining

Trenchless pipe relining is a new way to reline your pipes without having to dig trenches in your yard or otherwise harm the environment. It also takes a lot less time to perform a trenchless pipe relining, saving you money. All of the same benefits listed above apply to the trenchless pipe relining.
