The result is a seamless interior surface that lines the existing sewer lateral and helps prevent future joint failures and root intrusion.

Our Six-Step Trenchless Pipelining Process
We follow a six-step trenchless pipelining process so you always know what to expect, from the first call through the final walkthrough.
1. Troubleshoot with a Thorough Video Camera Inspection
We begin by running a video camera through your sewer lateral or main line. This thorough video camera inspection identifies root intrusion, cracks, corrosion, scale buildup, and misaligned joints. It also confirms whether the problem is on your property’s sewer lateral or on the municipal side of the connection.
In some cases, we find that the line is blocked but not structurally damaged. When that happens, a focused drain cleaning or hydro jetting service may resolve the issue without trenchless pipelining. We recommend the least invasive option that addresses the problem safely and effectively.
2. Review Diagnosis & Present Options
After the inspection, we review the video footage with you and explain what we found in plain language. If the pipe is a good candidate for cured-in-place pipelining, we outline how trenchless sewer repair would work for your specific layout and usage needs. If conditions such as severe collapse or extreme grade changes are present, we discuss alternative repair methods.
3. Approve Estimate & Schedule Repair
Once you choose a repair approach, we provide a clear estimate and schedule the work at a time that fits your operations. For commercial clients, we coordinate timing to help minimize service interruptions and work around peak business hours when possible.
4. Reline the Sewer Line with Perma-Liner
On the day of the repair, our certified installers access the pipe through small entry points and install the Perma-Liner system. The liner is positioned inside the existing pipe and cured to form a new, continuous interior surface. This cured-in-place pipelining method creates a pipe within a pipe that can restore structural integrity without open-trench excavation.
5. Confirm Results with Post-Job Video Inspection
After the liner cures, we perform another video camera sewer inspection to confirm that flow has been restored, joints are sealed, and the full repair length has been properly relined. We do not close access points until we have verified the result.
6. Final Walkthrough & Maintenance Tips
Finally, we walk you through what was done, answer questions, and share maintenance tips tailored to your property. Commercial clients receive documentation for their maintenance records, including images and descriptions of the repaired sections to support future planning and budgeting.
Trenchless Pipelining FAQs
Below are answers to some common questions we hear from commercial and residential customers considering trenchless sewer repair in South Central Pennsylvania.
What Types of Pipes Can Be Relined?
Trenchless pipelining and cured-in-place pipelining can be used on many common pipe materials, including cast iron, clay, ductile iron, PVC, Orangeburg, and concrete pipes. A camera inspection confirms suitability and identifies any sections that may need other types of repair.
Who Is Responsible for Sewer Lateral Repairs?
Property owners are typically responsible for the sewer lateral from the building to the connection point with the municipal main. Our video inspection helps determine whether the issue is on your side of the line or within the public system so you know who to contact next.
How Long Does a Cured-In-Place Liner Last?
When installed correctly, cured-in-place pipelining can provide a durable, long-term solution. Industry experience shows that a properly installed liner can last for decades under normal conditions.
Will Trenchless Pipelining Reduce My Pipe’s Flow Capacity?
Although the liner slightly reduces the interior diameter, most customers see flow improve. The smooth, continuous interior surface created by cured-in-place pipelining reduces friction compared to corroded or scaled original pipe, which helps wastewater move more efficiently.
Can My Business Stay Open During Repairs?
Because trenchless pipelining uses small access points instead of open trenches, many commercial properties can remain at least partially operational during repairs. We coordinate with you in advance to plan any temporary service interruptions and limit their impact on your staff and customers.
