Precision Pipe Repairs Without Excavation

At Arch Services, we specialise in delivering reliable, non-invasive pipe repair solutions using CIPP Localised Structural Repairs. This method, also known as patch lining or CIPP, allows us to restore isolated sections of damaged pipework without needing to dig up entire systems. It’s a fast, proven technique used to fix specific issues such as cracks, leaks, and infiltration in drainage networks.

Whether it’s a minor defect or localised structural damage, our experienced drainage specialists can install a tailored patch liner directly into the affected section. Once cured in place, the patch reinforces the existing pipe, restoring its full functionality and integrity.

​

What Is CIPP?

CIPP (Cured-In-Place Pipe) repair is a form of trench-less technology that targets small-scale defects within a pipeline. It uses a resin-impregnated patch, typically made from fibreglass or felt, that is inserted and inflated into position over the damaged area. Once the resin cures, the result is a permanent structural repair that seals cracks, prevents infiltration, and strengthens the existing pipe.

This method is ideal for damage that doesn’t require full-length lining and is a cost-effective alternative to excavation or replacing entire pipe sections.

​

When Is Localised Patch Lining Used?

Localised CIPP repairs are suitable for:

• Cracked or fractured sections of pipe

• Minor joint displacement or gaps

• Isolated root intrusion points

• Infiltration or leakage in a short segment

• Pipes under roads, buildings, or landscaped areas where access is limited

Our team assesses the pipe condition using CCTV drainage surveys to determine if a patch repair is the most suitable solution. We can then carry out the installation quickly and efficiently, often completing the work in just a few hours.

​

Benefits of Using CIPP for Localised Pipe Repairs

Choosing CIPP means:

​

• Minimal disruption – no need for digging or road closures

• Fast turnaround – quick installation and curing process

• Long-lasting results – strong, durable patch with structural integrity

• Cost savings – avoid full pipe replacements

• Environmentally friendly – low waste, reduced site impact

​

It’s a smart solution for both planned maintenance and emergency repairs.

FAQs: CIPP Localised Structural Repairs

​

What Is Cipp Localised Structural Repair?

CIPP localised structural repair, often known as patch lining, is a trench-less method used to fix small, isolated defects within a pipeline. A resin-saturated liner is applied directly to the damaged area and cured in place, forming a strong, permanent patch without needing to dig up the pipe.

​

How Long Does A Patch Liner Last?

When installed correctly, a patch liner can last over 50 years. It restores structural integrity and is resistant to common issues such as root ingress, corrosion, and ground movement.

Is CIPP Suitable For Domestic Or Commercial Pipes?

​

Yes. CIPP is highly versatile and used across both domestic and commercial drainage systems. It’s ideal for properties where excavation is disruptive or access is limited.

Can You Repair Only Part Of A Pipe?

​​

Absolutely. That’s the main advantage of CIPP. It allows us to target specific problem areas, such as cracks or leaks, without replacing or relining the full pipe.

Does The Pipe Need To Be Completely Dry Before Lining?

While the pipe doesn’t need to be bone dry, it must be thoroughly cleaned and cleared of debris, water, and roots. We prepare the pipe using high-pressure jetting to ensure the liner adheres properly and cures without issues.
