5 Steps to Leak-Free Pipes

Prep Work

The first step involves meticulous cleaning of the damaged area. We use high-powered hydro-jetting or specialized flex shaft machines to scour away debris and ensure a smooth surface for optimal patch adhesion. Additionally, we use a sewer inspection camera to pinpoint the exact location and extent of the damage, allowing for a targeted and efficient repair.

Packer Prep and Practice Run

Next, we will prepare the packer, a crucial tool that holds the bladder and liner material during installation. To guarantee a flawless operation, we often perform a practice run. This ensures the packer fits seamlessly within the pipe and all components function as intended before the actual patching commences.

Patch Installation

With the prep work complete, the packer, along with the bladder and specially formulated epoxy liner, are inserted into the damaged pipe section. Once in place, the bladder is inflated with precision. This expansion process creates crucial pressure, forcing the epoxy liner against the pipe's interior walls and ensuring a watertight seal.

Curing the Patch

Now it's time to allow the epoxy resin to cure. It will harden and solidify to form a permanent, leak-proof barrier. Curing times can vary depending on the specific lining material used, typically ranging from a quick 10 minutes to a few hours.

Final Inspection

Once the curing time has elapsed, our technicians remove the packer. Finally, a sewer inspection camera is deployed once more for a final inspection. This camera verification ensures the patch has successfully sealed the damage, giving you peace of mind knowing your pipes are leak-free and functioning optimally.

FAQ's

  • What is pipe patching and how does it work?


  • When should I consider pipe patching?

    Describe the item or answer the question so that site visitors who are interested get more information. You can emphasize this text with bullets, italics or bold, and add links.

  • How does pipe patching differ from pipe lining?

    Pipe patching addresses only localized damage, while pipe lining restores the entire pipe’s interior. Patching uses a resin-saturated section applied directly over a leak or crack, curing to seal it. Ready Jetter Plumbing evaluates whether patching is sufficient or lining is necessary. In Macomb County and Southeastern Michigan, patching is ideal for minor leaks, localized corrosion, or root intrusion, offering a faster, cost-effective solution without full pipe replacement, while lining is preferred for extensive or aging pipelines needing complete restoration.

  • How long does the pipe patching process take?

    The process is typically quick, often completed in a few hours for residential lines. Ready Jetter Plumbing first inspects and cleans the pipe, then applies the resin patch, which cures within a short time. Larger or more complex commercial systems may take longer. Trenchless installation avoids excavation, preserving landscaping and property. In Southeastern Michigan, weather conditions can slightly affect curing times, but proper preparation ensures a durable, leak-proof repair that restores structural integrity and functionality efficiently.

  • Are there limitations to pipe patching?

    Yes. Pipes that are extensively collapsed, severely corroded, or fully blocked may not be suitable for patching. Ready Jetter Plumbing conducts camera inspections to assess feasibility. Most residential and commercial pipes in Southeastern Michigan are excellent candidates for localized repair. When patching isn’t viable, professionals recommend lining or replacement. Proper evaluation ensures a safe, effective, and durable repair tailored to the property’s specific needs, guaranteeing long-term performance and minimizing recurring issues.
