– Advantages of relining
When it comes to broken sewer pipe repair, there are two main approaches: relining and pipe replacement.
Pipe relining is a process where a new pipe lining is inserted into the existing pipe and then cured in place to form a new, durable pipe within the old one. This method is less invasive and usually quicker than traditional pipe replacement, making it a good option for minor to moderate damage.
Pipe replacement, on the other hand, involves completely removing the old pipe and replacing it with a new one. While more invasive and often more expensive, pipe replacement can be necessary to fix severely damaged or collapsed broken sewer pipes under a house.

How long does sewer pipe lining last?
When properly installed and maintained, a broken sewer pipe repair using relining can last upwards of 50 years. The exact duration can vary depending on factors such as the quality of the installation, the condition of the existing pipe, and the nature of the soil and groundwater conditions surrounding the pipe.
Is sewer pipe relining a cost-effective solution compared to pipe replacement?
Yes, sewer pipe relining can often be a more cost-effective solution than full pipe replacement, especially for long runs of pipe or broken sewer pipes under a house, or located under structures or hardscaping. The relining process tends to be faster and less disruptive, which means reduced labor costs and less inconvenience. However, if the pipe is severely damaged or collapsed, full pipe replacement may be the only viable solution.
How long does it take to reline a broken sewer pipe?
The time taken to reline a sewer pipe can depend on several factors such as the length and diameter of the pipe, the degree of damage, and the working conditions. However, typically, a sewer pipe can be relined in a single day. For larger or more complex projects, it might take a couple of days.
What are some other terms related to sewer pipe relining?
Other terms related to sewer pipe relining include “Cured-In-Place Pipe” (CIPP), which is a method used in pipe relining; “lateral lining,” referring to the relining of the lateral connections from a building to the main sewer line; and “trenchless technology,” the broad category of methods that allow pipe repair or replacement without extensive excavation.
