As a rule of thumb, cast iron pipes can be found in homes in Rockhampton built before the 1970s. Even while this type of pipe is extremely long-lasting, it does have some drawbacks. It is possible for cast iron pipes to deteriorate and break down over time due to corrosion. When this happens, you need to get in touch with a plumber.
Pipe relining, on the other hand, may be something you've never considered. The process of relining an existing pipe entails encasing the old pipe in a new pipe. An anti-corrosion and wear-resistant substance has been used in the construction of this new pipe.
It is possible to employ pipe relining to repair a variety of pipe problems, such as cracks, leakage and breaks. There is an initial inspection of the existing pipe before relining may commence. A camera is inserted into the pipe in order to locate the problem. The old pipe is cleaned and a new liner is installed after the trouble spots have been located. To cure the new liner, it is inflated and left in place until it is solid. Liner is cut to fit and pipe is ready for use after hardening. It is possible to fix your pipes without having to completely replace them with pipe relining.
As a bonus, it's less disruptive than traditional pipe repair methods, allowing you to stay in your home while the work is being done. Our pipe relining service is something we take great pride in. When pipes are damaged or broken, relining is an alternative to excavating and replacing. This could save you a lot of time, money, and frustration, and we're happy to supply it.
