Epoxy Pipe Coating for Trenchless Pipe Restoration

How Epoxy Coating Works

Epoxy pipe coating offers an alternative to traditional methods of pipe replacement. Instead of excavating a long trench on your property, bringing in heavy equipment, extracting the old pipe, and replacing it, we can use coating equipment and a 2 part epoxy resin to coat the pipe's interior. This process restores the damaged pipe and significantly improves the flow rate. At Viking Sewer Rehab, we offer epoxy coating sewer repair solutions to home and business owners throughout Pinellas, Hillsborough, Pasco, Polk, Manatee, Hernando, Sarasota, and Citrus counties.

Understanding Epoxy Coatings

To install epoxy coatings, we begin by preparing the pipe. This involves hydro-jetting to clear debris and mineral scale from the pipe's interior. We then run lines containing epoxy resin through the pipe. Every nook and cranny of the pipe's interior receives one or more layers of epoxy resin. We cure the resin with steam, hot air, or UV energy.

Epoxy coatings stand the test of time. They prevent leaks and groundwater infiltration. The epoxy resists damage from acidic, abrasive, and alkaline substances. Its strength prevents tree roots from infiltrating the pipe. This minimally invasive pipe restoration process won't displace you from your home or business. Because we don't have to dig trenches, you won't have to arrange for any property restoration.

Epoxy Coating FAQs

What is epoxy coating?

Epoxy coating is a trenchless pipe restoration method that coats the inside of damaged pipes with a durable epoxy resin. The coating seals cracks, corrosion, and leaks while restoring the pipe’s structural integrity without excavation. This process helps extend the life of aging sewer and drain pipes while improving flow and preventing further deterioration.

How long does epoxy pipe coating last?

Epoxy pipe coating sewer rehabilitation has an estimated design life of 30- 50 years or more depending on conditions of the pipe and landscape. The durable resin forms a protective barrier inside the pipe that rehabilitates the pipe and improves flow rate. 

Can epoxy pipe coating repair cast iron pipes?

Yes. Epoxy pipe coating is commonly used to restore aging cast iron pipes. The coating seals corrosion, reinforces weak pipe walls, and prevents future leaks without the need for full pipe replacement. 

Can epoxy pipe lining stop leaks in sewer pipes?

Yes. Epoxy pipe lining can seal small cracks, pinhole leaks, and corrosion inside sewer and drain pipes. Once the epoxy resin cures, it forms a durable protective barrier that prevents water infiltration, improves flow and restores the pipe’s interior surface for long-term performance.

Do pipes need to be cleaned before epoxy coating is applied?

Yes. Pipes must be thoroughly cleaned before epoxy coating can be installed. Professionals typically use sewer hydro jetting to remove debris, scale, and buildup so the epoxy resin can properly bond to the pipe walls.
