Advanced, No-Dig Pipe Lining Solutions for Lasting Infrastructure
At Civil Connect, we are at the forefront of trenchless technology, offering state-of-the-art UV and Cured-in-Place Pipe (CIPP) lining services. Our innovative approach to pipe rehabilitation allows us to repair and renew damaged pipelines without the need for disruptive and costly excavation.
For large-scale civil and commercial projects, our no-dig solutions provide a faster, more efficient, and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional pipe replacement.
What is UV & CIPP Lining?
UV and CIPP lining are advanced methods of trenchless pipe repair. These techniques create a new, structural pipe within the existing damaged one. Here’s how it works:
Cured-in-Place Pipe (CIPP): A flexible liner impregnated with a thermosetting resin is inserted into the damaged pipe. This liner is then expanded to fit tightly against the walls of the original pipe. The resin is cured using hot water, steam, or ambient temperatures, creating a seamless, jointless, and corrosion-resistant new pipe.
UV Lining: This is a cutting-edge form of CIPP that uses a specially formulated resin cured by ultraviolet (UV) light. A liner saturated with this resin is pulled into the pipe, and a UV light train travels through the liner, curing the resin in a fraction of the time of traditional methods. This results in a pipe with exceptional strength and durability.
The Benefits of Trenchless Repairs
Our no-dig approach offers a multitude of advantages for your large-scale projects:
Minimal Disruption: Avoid the chaos of excavation. Our trenchless methods mean no need to dig up roads, disrupt traffic, or damage landscapes.
Cost-Effective: By eliminating the need for extensive excavation and restoration, we significantly reduce project costs and timelines.
Speed and Efficiency: UV and CIPP lining projects can be completed in a fraction of the time of traditional methods, minimising downtime and disruption.
Enhanced Durability: The new pipe is highly resistant to corrosion, abrasion, and root intrusion, extending the life of your infrastructure by up to 50 years.
Improved Performance: The smooth, seamless surface of the new pipe increases flow capacity and reduces the risk of future blockages.
Environmentally Friendly: With a smaller carbon footprint and less environmental disturbance, trenchless repairs are a sustainable choice for modern infrastructure projects.
Our Process
At Civil Connect, we follow a meticulous process to ensure the highest quality results for your project:
- CCTV Inspection: We begin with a thorough CCTV survey to assess the condition of the pipe and identify the extent of the damage.
- Pipe Cleaning: The pipe is cleaned using high-pressure water jetting to remove any debris, roots, or blockages.
- Liner Installation: The custom-made resin-impregnated liner is inserted into the pipe.
- Curing: The resin is cured using either heat or UV light, depending on the chosen method, to create a new, robust pipe.
- Quality Assurance: A final CCTV inspection is conducted to ensure the integrity and quality of the newly lined pipe.
Applications for Large-Scale Projects
Our UV and CIPP lining services are ideal for a wide range of applications, including:
