CIPP stands for cured-in-place pipe: a resin-saturated liner is pulled or inverted into the existing sewer line, then cured until it hardens into a smooth new pipe wall inside the old one. Riverside Sewer Pros uses this method most on the 1950s and '60s clay laterals common across Riverside's original housing stock, where root intrusion and joint gaps have started but the pipe itself hasn't collapsed.

Because the liner cures against the inside of the existing pipe, there's no trench across the yard, just an access point at each end of the run.

What's included

What's included with CIPP Pipe Lining

Typically included: camera prep inspection, pipe cleaning, resin liner insertion, curing, and a final camera verification pass. Optional: root cutting beforehand if intrusion is blocking the line before the liner goes in. Customer prep: clear access to cleanouts, keep water use light during the service window.

How it works

How our CIPP Pipe Lining process works

  1. Pipe Cleaning photo
    Step 1

    Pipe Cleaning

    The existing pipe is thoroughly cleaned to remove debris and prepare the surface for lining.

  2. Liner Measurement photo
    Step 2

    Liner Measurement

    Precise measurements ensure the liner fits the exact length and diameter of the pipe.

  3. Resin Saturation photo
    Step 3

    Resin Saturation

    The liner is saturated with resin to prepare it for insertion and curing.

  4. Liner Insertion photo
    Step 4

    Liner Insertion

    The saturated liner is inserted into the host pipe using air or water pressure.

  5. Curing Process photo
    Step 5

    Curing Process

    Heat, UV light, or ambient curing hardens the liner into a solid new pipe wall.

  6. Final Inspection photo
    Step 6

    Final Inspection

    A camera inspection confirms the cured liner is smooth and properly bonded.

Materials

Materials and methods for CIPP Pipe Lining

CIPP relies on the liner material and curing method matching the pipe's condition and the ground around it.

  • Felt Liner Tubes photo

    Felt Liner Tubes

    Felt-based tubes form the structural base of the lining material and conform to the bends typical in older Riverside laterals.

  • Epoxy Resin Blends photo

    Epoxy Resin Blends

    Resin blends cure into a rigid, chemical-resistant wall that holds up against Montgomery County's clay soil and freeze-thaw cycles.

  • Inversion Equipment photo

    Inversion Equipment

    Inversion drums turn the liner inside out as it's fed into the pipe, reaching full length without a trench.

  • Calibration Tubes photo

    Calibration Tubes

    Calibration tubes press the liner tight against the original pipe wall so it cures without gaps.

  • Heat Curing Units photo

    Heat Curing Units

    Heat sources speed curing so most jobs finish the same day.

  • End Seal Fittings photo

    End Seal Fittings

    Finishing fittings create a clean, watertight transition where the new liner meets existing plumbing.

FAQs

CIPP Pipe Lining FAQs

How long does CIPP lining last before it needs redoing?

A properly installed CIPP liner is designed to function as a new pipe for decades, similar to the lifespan of new PVC or HDPE pipe, as long as the host pipe and liner were matched correctly during installation.

Can old clay pipe from the 1950s or 60s be relined safely?

As long as the clay pipe hasn't collapsed and still holds its round shape. A camera inspection confirms whether the host pipe can support a liner or whether bursting or replacement makes more sense.

Will trenchless repair work if my pipe is already collapsed?

CIPP lining needs a host pipe to cure against, so a fully collapsed section isn't a candidate for lining. Pipe bursting or replacement is the trenchless option for that scenario.

What's the difference between pipe lining and pipe bursting?

Lining installs a new liner inside the existing pipe without removing it. Bursting fractures the old pipe apart while pulling a brand new pipe into its place. Lining works when the pipe is intact but deteriorating; bursting works when the pipe is too damaged to line.

Is CIPP lining messy or disruptive to my yard?

Lining uses one or two small access points rather than a trench, so yard disruption is minimal compared to traditional dig-and-replace.
