Damage to drains is typically caused by in-growing tree roots, voids created by broken pipes, and ground-water leaking into the pipe. Metro Rod provides pipe lining to repair damaged drains without the cost and disruption of excavation.
Metro Rod has the capability of lining pipes with diameters ranging from 75mm to 450mm, where excavation would be impractical due to location or depth. A range of lining options is available, to suit different applications. This includes both ambient and thermally cured systems.
A resin impregnated felt is pulled into place and inverted using either water or air. Upon curing, the inversion tube is withdrawn and this creates a pipe within a pipe. If there are any incoming lines these can be exposed using a lateral cutter.
The other alternatives to excavation available from Metro Rod are:
| • | Resin injection: An expanding polyurethane resin which eliminates water ingress |
| • | Localised Structural Repairs: A cost effective process to repair isolated defects |
| • | Manhole Rehabilitation: A water tight coating system which prevents water ingress and restores structural integrity. |
