Epoxy Pipe Restoration

Black Plumbing offers an innovative solution for repairing water pipes with leaks, including those as small as pinhole leaks, through our epoxy (ePIPE) pipe lining service. This method is an excellent alternative to replacing pipes, especially when dealing with encrusted or leaking pipes. Our team of licensed professionals can assess your specific situation and advise whether epoxy pipe lining is the right solution for you. Trusted for over two decades, ePIPE lining has been utilized by entities like the U.S. government, including the Army Corps of Engineers, and various foreign governments, underscoring its reliability and effectiveness.

If you’re uncertain about this technology or have questions, we’re here to help. At Black Plumbing, we welcome the opportunity to discuss the benefits of epoxy pipe lining with you. We believe in honesty and transparency in our recommendations, focusing on what truly serves your needs rather than upselling unnecessary services. If you’re facing issues with encrusted or leaking water pipes, don’t hesitate to contact us. We’re ready to explore whether epoxy pipe lining is the solution you need.

Understanding ePIPE Technology

Here’s how ePIPE works: Our skilled team at Black Plumbing starts by heating and air drying your water pipes using preheated, filtered air. This initial step is crucial for preparing the pipes for the upcoming treatments. Next, we clean the pipes using a combination of air and abrasive materials, which not only cleans them but also preps them for the epoxy coating application. The final step involves sandblasting the inside of the pipes with an air and corundum mix, creating the perfect surface for the epoxy coating. Once applied, the epoxy coating completes the restoration process.

The benefits of ePIPE technology are numerous:

• Stops Pinhole Leaks: The epoxy lining effectively seals and prevents any future pinhole leaks in your pipes.
• No Wall Damage: Our non-invasive approach means there’s minimal disruption to your home, with no need for digging or wall damage.
• Cost-Effective: The process avoids the need to go through walls, ceilings, or floors, significantly reducing the cost.
• Enhanced Quality: The repairs are quiet and internal, with the end result often being even better than the original piping.
• Improved Water Flow: ePIPE lining addresses issues causing low water flow, such as pipe buildup and leaks.
• Cleaner Water: With this lining, rust and other contaminants are prevented from seeping into your water supply.

Video Pipe Inspection

At Black Plumbing, our Video Pipe Inspection service is an essential tool for diagnosing and addressing hidden problems within your plumbing system. Utilizing advanced lateral launch sewer inspection technology with closed-circuit television (CCTV), we are able to conduct a thorough and non-invasive examination of your property’s plumbing infrastructure. This includes inspecting water pipes, sanitary sewer lines, gas lines, storm drains, and even older pipelines that might be hidden underground or within walls.

The primary advantage of CCTV pipe inspection lies in its ability to detect various issues without the need for disruptive excavation. Problems such as attached deposits that can impede water flow, open joints that may cause leaks, holes or cracks that can be potential sources of water damage, root intrusions from nearby vegetation, and collapsed or broken pipes that might require immediate attention can all be identified. Once these issues are diagnosed, we can then proceed with precise and efficient repair or replacement solutions, saving homeowners time and money while minimizing property disruption.

Trenchless Pipe Replacement

Trenchless Pipe Replacement is a modern approach to replacing old or damaged pipes with minimal excavation. This service is particularly beneficial for situations where traditional digging methods are impractical or too disruptive. Our services in this area include pipe bursting, sliplining, and cured-in-place pipe (CIPP). 

Pipe bursting involves breaking the old pipe while simultaneously pulling in a new one. Sliplining involves inserting a new pipe into the existing one, and CIPP involves inserting a resin-coated liner into the damaged pipe, which then hardens to form a new pipe within the old one. These methods are less intrusive than traditional pipe replacement techniques, as they do not require extensive digging, thereby preserving your yard, driveway, and landscaping.

The benefits of trenchless pipe replacement are numerous. It offers a quicker completion time compared to traditional methods, minimizes disruption to your property, and is an eco-friendly option as it reduces the need for large-scale excavation. This technology is designed to provide a seamless, durable solution that enhances the flow capacity of your pipes while preventing future infiltration and exfiltration issues.
