DIAGNOSE • EXPLAIN • SOLVE
A targeted repair from inside the existing pipe.
Patch lining is a no-dig technique for suitable localised defects. A resin-impregnated patch is positioned over the damaged section and cured against the inside of the pipe.
It can be an efficient way to repair certain cracks, fractures and joints without excavating the surface above.
