Company Overview

The trenchless UV (Ultraviolet) method is an innovative solution for repairing sewer lines without traditional digging.

In this process, a resin-saturated liner is inserted into the damaged pipe through an existing access point, like a manhole. Once the liner is positioned, UV lights are set along the length of the liner. These UV lights generate powerful UV light that reacts with a specific catalyst in the resin.

When the UV lamps are turned on, the resin cures quickly within minutes, establishing a new lining inside the damaged pipe. The resin attaches firmly to the sides of the damaged pipe, resulting in a solid, uninterrupted, and reliable lining.

There are many benefits to UV curing for trenchless repairs:

1. Fast and effective: The UV curing process is rapid, taking only a short time, depending on the pipe's length and conditions. This allows for fast repairs and minimal disruption to surrounding areas.

2. Strong and enduring solution: The set resin results in a durable lining that can increase the longevity of the pipe by many years. It withstands issues like corrosion, cracking, root invasion, and chemical damage.

3. Little to no digging needed: Since the UV method is trenchless, it needs very little excavation, minimizing the disturbance from excavation.
