What is CIPP Relining?
CIPP, the abbreviation for Cured-In-Place-Piping, is another name for the trenchless technology that repairs pipework with a seamless layer within the pipe.
These drain liners are made from a durable resin and will be better than the existing drain in quality and strength once it is cured in place.
A drain lining is fitted by moulding it into place inside the old pipe using air pressure. It is made to fit tightly against the old pipework making sure the drain is fully watertight.
Over time, subsidence or ground movement caused by traffic can end up damaging underground pipes. Added to that, invasive tree roots also tend to crawl through pipe joints and small cracks. Once cracked the surrounding soil might also be washed into the pipe leading to complicated problems.
Drain lining is a reliable repair that offers strength and durability and can be fitted the full length of a pipe or as a patch repair.

How Does Drain Lining Work in Hertfordshire?
When our drainage engineers undertake drain lining in Hertfordshire, it is almost always done in the same manner. When you request a drain to be lined or relined, the first step is to identify the reasons behind the problem. Today, this is done using CCTV drain survey probe, which is pushed into the pipe using a push-rod.
The footage inside the pipe is analysed on the ground, and then an effective strategy is designed for the relining.
Here are the three simple steps that make up the drain lining process:
Clearing Way
Once the reason behind the leak or blockage is identified, technicians use high water pressure to clear out the pipe. This pressure is enough to clear the pipe of any debris, and it also cuts through invasive tree roots. Doing this also facilitates a smooth surface for the resin to bond with.
Installing Resin Liner
Next, the inside of the affected region of the pipe is coated with a sturdy resin bonding material. Special rubber tubing is then pushed into the pipe and inflated. This forces the resin coating to bond to the wall of the tube making a leak-proof seal.
Post Lining Checkup
As soon as the resin is successfully installed, the rubber tubing is pulled out. Later the technicians conduct another CCTV drain camera survey to check the integrity of the bond.
Relined pipes are usually much stronger than the original ones and barely cause any trouble for years! If a particular part of a pipe is broken, patches can also be used instead of relining.
