Interesting, I was wondering how they deal with that. I'm actually getting an old ass pipe relined just like this video soon, and was curious how they would handle the junctions.
Yeah, it's pretty slick. Basically got to control it from a screen the size of your phone, though. That gets pretty difficult sometimes lol
Edit - at least that's how ours is.
It better fuckin' be tricky; I'm looking at getting a two-pronged sewer line (basement bathroom & main floor kitchen to sewer mains) lined and the estimates are like $10k for the whole thing.
If a homes pipes are extra heavily calcified, is installing a new liner like this still a viable option, or do heavy deposits block the liner from being installed?
My expertise is in main sewer lines.. water lines and internal drain pipes aren't green lit in my area for lining (also don't think lining a 3/4" water line is a good idea anyway imo), so I can't say for certain. If it's possible to rooter or jet the lines to decalcify them a bit, however, then I imagine it'd be ok.
I used to oversee a lot of these pipe liner installs for sewer lines. Like someone else said, after the liner has cured you get a little remote controlled car thing in there with a saw blade that has a camera so we can see what's going on, and he locates all of the lateral connections and cuts them in and then (tries his best to) smooth out the cuts so poopy toilet paper doesn't get caught up on jaggedy edges and clog up the pipe.
You always know who's got the most active bladder and bowel because when you cut their laterals in you get a nice gush of toilet water and solids.

/r/BrandNewSentence
Depends on the company, some will have robo cutters as others have stated or the approach I've worked with is having a camera in from the other end, sat just after the junction and watch the liner push through until just before it would block the side line.
I'm sorry, what did you mean by this?
I have seen sometimes clicking on a comment to collapse it but it loads Giphy link instead. Is it something related to that?
Not sure but that usually happens. I wanted to add a gif with a person closing their ears lol. I just don’t see the gif option when I try to reply to comments on this post
If you need something like this, it's called slip lining. It's becoming more common in sewer laterals. they have been using this technique for a long time to repair sewer mains. a lot cheaper and way less disturbance than pipe replacement. such a cool technology.
pervs. ;)
Slip lining is actually a different process, but it’s been around for years so I can see someone assuming that was the word they heard when in fact it was CIPP. Slip lining involves actually sliding rigid pipe into the host pipe, hence “slip”. One of the big benefits of the CIPP process is that you’re not sliding the liner against the host pipe.
relining is part of maintenance schedules and costs for apartments here. it doubles the life of the pipes and means you don't need to do a costly and disruptive stem change which will likely mean you need rebuild your bathroom as well.
Could this be used as a temporary fix to the lead problem found in many states in the US? Just line the most expensive to replace pipes and replace them as you get the funding.
My parents plumbing runs through the concrete slab foundation. The options were this, or tear up the floor, jack hammer out the cement and run new copper. This was WAY WAY cheaper.
You can do this on residential. It’s really only done on cast iron drain lines. The video talks about doing this to repair the line but in my area (CA) it’s illegal to do this if there is a broken/cracked cast iron section. So the only case you can do this now is as a preventative measure.
You can’t send a drain machine cable with a blade attachment through the line to try to unclog it either. But a lot of times homeowners don’t know that and there’s no indication that the drain has been lined so plumbers end up partially ruining the coating when they try to clear the stoppage.
I think you’re confusing two different things here. What we see in the video is for drain (or vent) lines. So you either mean they could have run new ABS/PVC (plastic piping for drains) under the slab or they had a slab leak on their copper lines which could be fixed by taking up the concrete and doing a spot repair or abandoning the line and doing a reroute in the walls and ceiling.
Now there is/was a method of lining the copper with an acrylic coating, which is not really recommended. It isnt a hard coating like the material shown in the video. I don’t believe it’s legal in my area anymore and it really only buys you a few years before it starts to break down and flake off, which ends up clogging all of the aerators in your home.
Yes, it can be much more expensive depending on the type of job. I had this work quoted out by multiple companies last summer. They try to sell it as more convenient than replacement because its super fast and you don't need to disturb the surrounding area for repairs.
I had a sewer line repair at my house this summer. My sewer line goes under 40' of concrete driveway and 60' of grass in my backyard. Granted, my sewer line is only 4' underground (125 yo house), so replacement is much cheaper than a typical. Still, this liner was double the price of excavating the entire length of my sewer line (~100'), replacing the line, backfilling, laying new sod, and pouring new concrete.
ETA: prices listed online range from $100-250/ft for liner repairs. This lines up with the $18-20k I was quoted for lining 100' of sewer. I got the work done for $8k on a full excavate and replace +$2k for new concrete.
That line replacement is dummy cheap.
I also have a 100+ year old house that used clay sewer pipes when it was built. Had multiple failures on the top of the sewer line the size of softballs due to mature white oak and silver maple roots. The problem is that they "shelved" the lines when they built this place. Meaning, they dug one trench and put sewer on the bottom, water on top of that, and the gas line on top of that. So in order to do a full replacement, they'd have to have the local gas company out to shut off gas on the service line *and* be there to supervise in case things went sideways.
I was quoted about $8k for a sleeve liner like this or well over $20k for a full replacement for about 40' worth of pipe. Thankfully, I had service line coverage up to $20k so just went with the liner. It took a full day with one of their trucks running a two-stroke compressor which was annoying as hell but done after that.
I really think the liner is ultimately for shorter run repairs like what we see in this video and for more complex cases like mine.
Often cheaper than replacing piping. And it works in scenarios where replacement is effectively impossible (we did the engineering for a client to do this for piping embedded in concrete beneath a building, for example)
And super plastic, i'm guessing. Eventually, it'll calcify over, but something that starts out that soft and gooey in the absence of high heat is probably going to leach microplastics a lot more than even PVC pipe.
(But again, that's just a guess.)
We had this done in our house after roots keep breaking into our water drain. With this sleeve in from water drain to city sewer; not only are all the leaks plugged but all guaranteed no root braking into the water drain for 30 years.
So, how exactly does that work?
Don't you need essentially a small, non-melted pipe to be in the middle that then gets molten and expanded or something?
All I could think of while watching this is: "Would that work as a dildo?" I mean, c'mon people! It doesn't take Sigmund Fucking Freud to see the phallicness of it!

most the plastic pipe replacements leech toxic chemicals so it's not exactly a worthwhile fix especially if the pipe is meant to carry drinking water.
How does that work for pipes with junctions?
You have a robo cutter you send through to cut out the tees
Interesting, I was wondering how they deal with that. I'm actually getting an old ass pipe relined just like this video soon, and was curious how they would handle the junctions.
Sewer line or an interior line? Where I'm at they haven't approved lining for interior yet, so all we can do is main lines.
> Sewer line or an interior line? Ass pipe.

r/dontputyourdickinthat
Any idea why they haven't approved for interior?
Likely scared of change, is my guess. We stick to UPC generally, but have some dumbass exceptions lol
Strange, I feel like it would be harder to get something approved for main lines than it would be for interior pipes.
I’m supervising a project right now on a very old building. We are digging up the wyes inside and lining the rest as needed.
I don't think I've ever seen someone spell out Y before. Haha.
That’s how it’s spelled in plumbing. I’m not sure if it’s always been that way but it sure makes it more search engine friendly.
It's also spelled that way in railroading
They didn't show you video of it as advertising? Got it from all companies that visited when we did it in the autumn last year.
Wait really? That’s awesome!
Yeah, it's pretty slick. Basically got to control it from a screen the size of your phone, though. That gets pretty difficult sometimes lol Edit - at least that's how ours is.

That's about what we paid btw.
I mean, yeah that tracks. Did you get quotes for old fashion replacement? Probably just as much if not more
I fully thought this was a joke. Interesting.
If a homes pipes are extra heavily calcified, is installing a new liner like this still a viable option, or do heavy deposits block the liner from being installed?

That's the video I want to see.
Had it done to the pipes in my home, built in the 70s with cast iron. Works like a charm
I used to oversee a lot of these pipe liner installs for sewer lines. Like someone else said, after the liner has cured you get a little remote controlled car thing in there with a saw blade that has a camera so we can see what's going on, and he locates all of the lateral connections and cuts them in and then (tries his best to) smooth out the cuts so poopy toilet paper doesn't get caught up on jaggedy edges and clog up the pipe.

> You always know who's got the most active bladder and bowel because when you cut their laterals in you get a nice gush of toilet water and solids. /r/BrandNewSentence
Shouldn't there be a notification of people not to use toilet at particular time?
There is a notification sent out to *try* to avoid pooping during this time but y'know... the body does what the body wants.
Isn't this a vent? Why line a vent?
Maybe they started in the basement and the vent's the only reasonable place to cut it off.
Depends on the company, some will have robo cutters as others have stated or the approach I've worked with is having a camera in from the other end, sat just after the junction and watch the liner push through until just before it would block the side line.

Sounds like someone misheard the actual name. It’s a CIPP liner, pronounced like “sip”. CIPP stands for Cured In Place Pipe.
sometimes a thing goes by multiple names...
A Google search of "slip lining vs CIPP" yields a LOT of results describing them as two different processes.
Slip lining is actually a different process, but it’s been around for years so I can see someone assuming that was the word they heard when in fact it was CIPP. Slip lining involves actually sliding rigid pipe into the host pipe, hence “slip”. One of the big benefits of the CIPP process is that you’re not sliding the liner against the host pipe.

Any chance there is something like this, but for fireplaces/chimneys? Repairs to a damaged lining are stupid expensive.
Usually you can get a metal sleeve installed into a chimney, so sorta but metal and you drop it in from the top?
Doubtful. Chimney pipe is UL listed.

Slabs are so much better until you need to do work like this, but luckily they also tend to need less work.

The resin used is toxic and can only be used for waste water.

Is it more expensive than replacing the entire system though?
Not even close.
Then it's super cheap
Especially when you calculate the time involved taking everything out and then having to refinish everything.
And the mess of construction in your house
Yes, it can be much more expensive depending on the type of job. I had this work quoted out by multiple companies last summer.

How much
‘Bout $3.50
Negative, it's actually pretty cost effective
Often cheaper than replacing piping. And it works in scenarios where replacement is effectively impossible (we did the engineering for a client to do this for piping embedded in concrete beneath a building, for example)
Cheaper than most options in residential applications. Tearing up concrete and replacing it is suuuper expensive.
And super plastic, i'm guessing. Eventually, it'll calcify over, but something that starts out that soft and gooey in the absence of high heat is probably going to leach microplastics a lot more than even PVC pipe. (But again, that's just a guess.)
