Aurora’s Trenchless & CIPP Services

Before CIPP technology, fixing or replacing pipes was a slow, costly, and messy process. But things have gotten a lot better! Repairs now last longer, are stronger, and more durable, while also being better for the environment. Perma-Liner Industries developed a solution that truly works, and we're proud to bring the best products and services to Aurora homeowners. Since 1999, we've used a special method that nearly eliminates the need to dig up and replace pipes. Our patented CIPP Lining System makes the whole process fast and efficient.

So, how does it work? The CIPP, or Cured-in-Place Pipe system, creates a brand-new pipe inside your old damaged one. We start by using high-definition closed-circuit cameras to inspect the inside of your pipes, checking for damage and deciding the best way to fix it. Next, we measure the pipe precisely so the liner can be cut to the perfect size. The liner is soaked in a special resin that hardens to form a new pipe lining. We insert the liner into the old pipe using air pressure. With the right equipment, the resin cures quickly—usually within hours. Finally, we use the camera again to make sure the repair meets our high standards. That's it! Just one visit, and your pipe is fixed for the long haul.

Perma-Lateral Systems

The Perma-Lateral™ small diameter inversion system is one of the most trusted pipe rehabilitation solutions in North America, perfect for pipes between 2 inches and 8 inches in diameter. This system allows us to install liners through clean-outs or open pipes, needing just one access point, and it can rehabilitate up to 150 feet in one go. The liner cures quickly—ambient curing takes about 3 hours, while heat curing can be done in as little as 20 minutes.

We also offer a custom-formulated ambient cure resin that works for any temperature and installer needs, ensuring a reliable 3-hour cure time. For even faster results, we use the Perma-Liner Stinger steam unit to add heat and speed up the curing process. The small diameter inversion system is the best-selling system in North America designed to rehabilitate pipes ranging in diameter from 2 inch to 8 inch. Perma-Lateral™ liners can be installed through clean-outs or open cut pipes, with only a single access point required and can rehabilitate up to 150 feet in a single installation. The liner itself can be cured ambiently in 3 hours or heat cured in as little as 20 minutes! The Perma-Lateral™ ambient cure resin can be custom formulated to meet any installer's needs and for all working temperatures for a 3 hour cure time. Heat, through the use of Perma-Liner's Stinger steam unit, can also be added ensuring a speedy cure.

Perma-Lateral Tear Away

As the name… Cured-In-Place-Pipe implies, this is a process that takes place within the actual pipes themselves, and in the vast majority of cases, requires little or no extensive and costly excavation.

Here's how the CIPP (Cured-In-Place-Pipe) or Pipe Within A Pipe process works:

The pipeline designated for repair is investigated with closed circuit high definition cameras to assess the damage and determine the condition of the pipe for the best method of rehabilitation.
Before CIPP technology, this type of repair could only be performed by excavating the area above the pipe. This is a highly disruptive process, which thanks to Perma-Liner's C-I-P-P Patented Lining systems, dig and replace has been virtually eliminated.
Measurements are taken with a sewer camera of the cleanout stack pipe, desired liner starting point and desired liner stopping point.
Our patented Scrim liner material and calibration tube is then marked and cut job site specific.
The liner material is inserted into the calibration tube to the desired pre-marked spot where the liner will be bonded to the calibration tubing using a special plastic bonding adhesive.
The liner material is then saturated with a proprietary blend of 100% solids epoxy resin that will ultimately form the new pipe inside of the damaged pipe.
Next, the calibration tube and saturated liner are loaded into the Perma-Lateral™ Inversion drum and the drum is positioned over the cleanout. The calibration tube and liner material are then introduced into the damaged pipe by using air pressure to invert both materials down the length of the repair.
Once the liner and calibration tube have completely inverted, the calibration tube is inflated to its desired holding pressure and will act as a bladder pressing the resin saturated liner against the host pipe for a designated amount of time. During this period, the chemical reaction will take place causing the liner to cure to its hardened state.
The calibration tube is removed by winding the material directly back into the inversion machine, leaving no mess, or waste. A post video is then taken for final inspection.
The result is a permanent, C-I-P-P lined repair that is stronger, longer lasting and more durable than the damaged and deteriorated pipe prior to being lined.

And all of this is achieved in a fraction of the time it would take to run a traditional dig and replace operation making Cured-In-Place-Pipe lining truly a time and money saving, as well as environmentally-friendly repair process.
