Storm Drain Relining

Storm Drain Lining Services in New York, New Jersey, and Florida

Restore Structural Integrity Without the Dig

Stormwater management systems are the unsung heroes of your property’s infrastructure. Whether you manage a municipality, a sprawling commercial complex, or an industrial facility, your storm drains are responsible for diverting massive amounts of water away from foundations and roadways. However, when these pipes fail due to corrosion, root intrusion, or ground shifting, the consequences are immediate and severe: sinkholes, flooding, and environmental contamination.

At Wind River Environmental Trenchless, we understand that traditional repairs—which often involve ripping up parking lots or shutting down roadways—are simply not an option for many businesses. That is why we specialize in Cured-In-Place Pipe (CIPP) lining. This trenchless technology allows us to rehabilitate your storm drains from the inside out, creating a "pipe within a pipe" that is often stronger than the original, all without the need for extensive excavation.

Repair vs. Replacement: Understanding Your Options

When your storm drain system is compromised, you generally have three paths forward. Making the right choice depends on the condition of your pipes and your tolerance for site disruption.

Traditional Excavation (Dig-and-Replace): This method involves bringing in heavy machinery to physically dig up the soil, asphalt, or concrete covering the storm drain to remove the old pipe and lay a new one. While effective for pipes that have completely collapsed, it is the most intrusive option available. It typically requires significant restoration work, such as repaving parking lots and re-landscaping, which can drive up the total project cost and extend the timeline significantly.
Spot Repair: If the damage is isolated to a specific joint or a small crack, a spot repair can be performed. This approach addresses the immediate problem area without lining the entire length of the pipe. However, for aging infrastructure, spot repairs can sometimes be a temporary measure; fixing one weak point in a deteriorating system may simply push the pressure to the next weakest point, leading to further repairs down the road.
Trenchless Storm Drain Lining (CIPP): Our preferred method, Trenchless Lining, offers the durability of a full replacement with the surgical precision of a spot repair. By inserting a liner into the existing pipe through a cleanout or manhole, we eliminate the need for digging trenches. This method creates a seamless, jointless pipe that restores structural integrity and flow. It is the ideal solution for property owners who want a permanent fix that preserves their hardscape and minimizes operational downtime.

What to Expect: Our Process For Storm Drain Relining

We strive to make the rehabilitation process as smooth and predictable as possible. While every site is unique, our general workflow ensures quality and efficiency from start to finish.

Initial Assessment: We utilize advanced video inspection technology to map out the storm drain, identifying the exact location and nature of the damage.
Deep Cleaning: Before lining, we thoroughly clean the pipe to remove debris, silt, and roots, ensuring the new liner will bond and form correctly.
Lining Installation: We insert the liner into the existing pipe and expand it, allowing it to cure and harden into a durable new pipe structure.
Final Verification: Once the installation is complete, we perform a final video inspection to verify the work and ensure your system is fully restored and ready for service.
