Lining & Restoration of Multi-Story Stacks & Drain Pipes

We can extend the life of your sewer and drainage pipes by as much as 50 years
or more with advanced methods like Cured-In-Place Pipe Lining & Resin Coating.

Less Disruption to Occupants. Lower Cost. Lasting Results.

Plumbing systems deteriorate over time leading to cracks, leaks, and the build up of rust and debris inside of pipes. Left unchecked, pipe failures often cause contamination, mold, and reduced flow capacity which result in costly maintenance and repairs. Champion Pipe Restoration offers cost-effective solutions to restore multi-story condominium and highrise pipe systems without the mess and disruption of traditional pipe removal and replacement methods.

How We Give New Life To Old Pipes…

Our experienced professionals will renew your pipe systems from the inside by creating new pipes within your original pipes. For 1.5-3″ diameter pipes, specialized equipment is used to apply a durable epoxy coating to the inside of pipe walls, sealing leaks and protecting the pipe from further degradation. For 2-8″ pipes, a resin saturated liner is pulled or inverted into the host-pipe and then cured to create a new composite pipe within the original pipe. Our environmentally friendly methods require little to no digging or disruption and provide a long-lasting solution to your pipe problems.

In most cases, individual stack sections and branch lines will be restored and reinstated in a
SINGLE DAY, returning lines to service each afternoon before our crews leave for the night.

Advantages of Our Non-Destructive Pipe Restoration Methods

  • Economical – Because our methods repair your sewer pipes from the inside, we don’t have to tear apart walls, destroy floors, excavate foundations, or disturb landscaping; the restoration savings are substantial.

  • Less Disruptive To Occupants – We restore most individual stacks sections and branch lines and return them to service the same day, without the mess and noise of traditional remove and replace methods.

  • Long-Lasting – Pipes restored with Cured-In-Place Liner are typically stronger than PVC pipes, are more resistant to root penetration than newly installed pipes, and have a life expectancy of 50 years or more.

  • Faster – Because we restore pipes without destroying surrounding features, our non-destructive restoration methods can be completed in a fraction of the time of traditional methods.

  • Hygienic & Environmentally Friendly – Relined pipe stops sewage and waste-water from leaking out of your pipes into the surrounding area and prevents effluent from leaking into neighboring properties.

  • Peace of Mind – Rest easy knowing that your newly restored pipes have a design life of 50 years and that our 5-Year Parts & Labor Warranty is one of the best in the business.

Frequently Asked Questions

The primary reason pipe restoration is so much less expensive than pipe replacement (re-piping), is because Champion Pipe Restoration rehabilitates pipes without having to dig up or destroy everything around them. In a classical pipe replacement scenario, pipes must be removed and replaced from behind walls, under slabs, under floors, and under driveways and landscaping. In many cases, this requires the expensive and time-consuming process of tearing up and repairing kitchens, flooring, slabs, sidewalks, asphalt, green areas, etc. It’s also time consuming. With traditional re-piping methods causing so much disruption, it’s easy to imagine how Champion Pipe Restoration can save customers as much as 40% or more over pipe replacement.

While there are several factors that influence how long pipe restoration will take, Champion Pipe Restoration can often restore vertical stack sections and branch lines and return them to service in a single shift; this means that occupants will typically have service each evening by the time our crews leave for the day. The length of time required to complete the entire project is dependent on the size of the building, number of pipes requiring restoration, and site-specific logistical challenges. Regardless of the circumstances however, our pipe restoration methods are almost always significantly faster than pipe replacement.

Our restoration methods are applicable to virtually every kind of pipe used in the construction trades. We commonly restore Cast-Iron, Vitrified Clay, PVC, Galvanized Steel, and Concrete pipes found in most sewer and drainage systems.

In most cases, the building association is responsible for servicing all common lines, while the unit owners are responsible for the plumbing inside their units. When we take on a building project, we often offer a discounted package option to unit owners that want to restore their unit’s plumbing while our workers are on site.

Our pipe liner is typically comprised of several layers consisting of a plasticized barrier, felt fabric, and interwoven fiberglass reinforcement. The liner’s layers are saturated in a specially engineered resin, which cures to form a strong composite material much like the fiberglass that boats are made of. Cured liner is extremely durable and the materials have a design-life in excess of 50 years.

We typically restore up to 100 feet of 6″ pipe or 130 feet of 3″-4″ pipe in a single shot. For smaller diameter pipe, we can typically epoxy coat about 100 feet at a time, although multiple passes may be required. One “shot” is one continuous liner or coating installation initiated from a single access point. If the access point is a cut segment or a “T- fitting”, we can shoot in both directions, providing over 200 feet of restoration coverage from a single access point.

The simple answer is no. While there is a minimal reduction in interior diameter, the smooth surface of lined and coated pipe will usually improve flow capacity. In addition, prior to restoration, cleaning of the line will have removed roots and build-up that had previously impeded flow.

Yes, restored pipe is very root resistant. When Champion restores pipes, the resulting lined/coated pipe contains no joints or leaks. Roots are attracted to water. With no more leaks, there is no water for the roots to grow towards, and with no more joints, there are no crevices for roots to find their way into.

In terms of materials, the resin systems and composite liner materials employed by Champion Pipe Restoration have an engineered service life in excess of 50 years.

We have several methods for re-instating connections (branch lines) so that flow can be restored to trunk or mainlines. When access is available from the connecting line, we may utilize a milling cutter to cut the liner and open the connection back up. When access from the connecting line is not available, we utilize a specially engineered robotic cutter to reinstate connections.

In most cases, building owners are responsible for maintenance of the sewer pipes that connect the building to the public sewer system. The building owners’ responsibility typically ends where the “lateral” connection pipe crosses into the right-of-way near the roadside.

Drainage will be unavailable to affected areas while our crews are working on site. The respective drainage system will typically be operational by the time our crews leave each afternoon. Any overnight or longer-term unavailability is coordinated with management and the occupants on a case-by-case basis.

Depending upon the layout of the units, we will either pull toilets or use roof vents to access the branch lines. In some cases, we may have to remove a small square of wall material from behind fixtures to gain access.

Usually, yes. The state requires a permit for residential, commercial, and industrial pipe restoration in most cases. Your sales representative will speak with you about permit requirements prior to scheduling restoration work so that we may pull the appropriate permits on your behalf.
