Our Spot Repair Kit allows any technician to remotely repair damaged underground pipe without digging.

This process provides a simple solution for lateral spot repairs.  Simply attach our repair bladder to our harness which fits any mini camera easily. Then wet out our repair patch and simply position the bladder over the damaged pipe, inflate and cure.   After 40 minutes, the repair is cured and the bladder is retrieved via the clean out. This process can be done quickly and easily right throughout the clean out.

HOW IT WORKS

Step 1: Pipe System Diagnosis

The project begins with mapping the internal plumbing system and camera inspection of drain and sewer lines. A plan is implemented to minimize disruption and afford the most efficient timeline for work completion. The piping system is inspected for integrity and spot repairs are made to excessively worn joints and fittings. Temporary bypass water piping may be installed. Depending on the lining method to be used, pipes may be drained and/or air-dried. After testing for leaks, the pipes are prepared for cleaning.

Step 2: Preparation and Cleaning

Nu Flow’s patented trenchless lining system involves double-entry access to pull an epoxy-saturated felt liner with an internal bladder inside host pipe. The bladder is inflated for curing in place and is later removed, leaving in its place a smooth, jointless new pipe inside the host pipe. This lining method provides the ability to line multiple 45° and 90° angles, as well as the option of lining specific sections of pipe without lining the entire length.

Step 4: System Reassembly and Final Inspection

The liner is trimmed, and re-fitted to connect the lined service to the system. A final leak test and camera inspection confirm structural integrity. Water quality, volume, and flow tests confirm system functionality.
