What is Pipe Patching?
Pipe
Patching is a new technology in New Zealand. This repair system
offers a revolutionary way of repairing existing drainage
without the need to dig up the defective drain and area. Pipe
Patching is a simple, very quick, yet effective solution which
saves the inconvenience and misfortune of digging up your
established property. This is also often the most cost effective
permanent solution with absolute minimal disruption.
Why Pipe Patch?
Ground
movement and pressure that pushes up against the pipes from
the surrounding environment (approx. 1m3 soil = 1.Ton) can
cause cracks, dislodgements and threaten the structural integrity
of the pipe - root intrusion being one of the main causes.
Pipe patching strengthens the pipe
Pipe patching is a permanent solution which has a structural
strength greater than that of the original pipe thus avoiding
the pipe from collapsing and eliminating future costs and
excavation. The pipe patch will seal the pipe avoiding infiltration
and exfiltration and eliminating any further root invasion
into the affected area.
Pipe Patching is rapidly increasing and becoming the preferred
method of repairing drains and pipelines due to its cost savings
and minimal impact to the social and environmental surrounding.

Technical Info
The
Pipe Patch is prepared by mixing epoxy resins and then impregnating
a piece of specialized material that is accurately placed
and fitted around an inflatable packer. When positioned in
the defective pipe the packer is inflated, the material begins
to extrude excess epoxies which bond the existing pipe and
material together, covering and sealing the defective pipe.
The packer is then deflated leaving a smooth inner wall.
Re-lining
We
now offer a number of new ways to repair and replace your
drainage lines, with this method we are able to repair multiple
faults in one!
How Does Pipe-Relining Work?
This new
technology works on the same principle as a pipe patch. With
conventional pipe relining it is necessary to line from the
nearest access point to the defective area. With our system,
we can eliminate the cost by more than 50% less over conventional
methods due to the fact that we can reline the defective area
only, this now becomes an advantage to us, providing our customers
with the best quality, cost effective and latest quality repair
system.
This method requires no digging which means it is ideal for
drains under houses or your new driveway or garden or drains
with multiple faults.
The benefits of Pipe Relining are:
- Fast installation
- Eliminate root intrusion
- Prevents exfiltration
- Seal open joints (Dislodged Pipes)and collapsed pipes
- Restore cracked pipe
- Reduces landscape damage
- Prevents corrosion
- No electricity needed
- Eliminates re-instating costs
- Minimal inconvenience to owner at all times
- Generally it has a much lower overall costs compared to
dig up and repair methods especially in congested, hard to
reach access areas.
