Pipe Lining Systems The Smarter Solution for Sewer Rehabilitation

 

Sewer pipeline maintenance is a constant challenge for businesses, local authorities, and property managers. Traditional excavation methods can be disruptive and expensive. That is why many now use pipe lining systems, a trenchless solution that repairs and rehabilitates pipelines efficiently without the need for extensive digging.

​

What Is Pipe Lining

Pipe lining involves creating a new pipe inside the existing one. A flexible liner coated with resin is inserted into the damaged section of the pipe. Once in position, it is cured using heat, steam, or ultraviolet light. The process forms a strong new inner layer that restores the pipe’s structure and flow.

 

This method, known as Cured in Place Pipe (CIPP) lining, is suitable for both sewer and drainage systems. It is widely used across Wales and the UK for repairing cracks, leaks, and corrosion while avoiding the disruption that comes with excavation.

​

When Is Pipe Lining Used

Pipe lining is an effective option when the existing pipe is still stable but showing signs of wear. It is ideal for:

 

• Cracked or fractured pipes

• Deformities

• Leaking joints

• Holes

• Root intrusion or water infiltration

 

For severely collapsed or heavily deformed pipes, a full replacement may still be required. However, for most cases of localised damage, lining provides a quick and long-lasting repair.

​

The Benefits of Pipe Lining Systems

 

Minimal disruption: No large-scale excavation means less disturbance to roads, pavements, or business operations.

 

Cost effective: Reduced labour, reinstatement costs, and downtime.

 

Efficient turnaround: Many projects can be completed within a day depending on the size and length of the pipe.

 

Environmentally friendly: Less excavation results in lower waste and fewer vehicle movements.

 

Durable and long lasting: Once cured, the new liner can perform effectively for several decades.

 

These advantages make pipe lining systems a practical choice for councils, water companies, and commercial property owners who need reliable long-term drainage solutions.

Our Approach to Sewer Rehabilitation

At Arch Services, we begin with a detailed CCTV inspection to assess the condition of the pipeline. This allows us to identify the best repair method, which might include full lining, patch repair, or targeted rehabilitation.

 

Once the pipe is prepared and cleaned, the liner is installed and cured in place. We then carry out a post-lining inspection to confirm the quality of the repair and provide a complete report for client records.

 

We work across Wales and the West, supporting a variety of projects from single sewer runs to large-scale infrastructure rehabilitation. Our teams are trained in multiple lining methods, including ambient cure, hot water cure, and UV-cured systems.

​

Why Choose Arch Services

We combine industry knowledge with a straightforward approach. Our work helps clients reduce costs, extend asset life, and minimise disruption. Each project is handled with precision from the initial inspection to completion.

 

If you are planning a sewer rehabilitation project or dealing with ongoing drainage issues, pipe lining systems could provide the solution you need.
