No-Dig Pipe Rehabilitation: Repair Without Digging

Non-invasive pipe rehabilitation, commonly known as "relining," is the modern solution for repairing deteriorated or damaged pipes directly from the inside, without the need for costly and disruptive excavation or masonry work.

This technology allows sewer systems and industrial drains to be restored to full functionality quickly, minimizing disruption and environmental impact. Franchini Servizi Ecologici specializes in the rehabilitation of large pipes, pipe racks, and complex sewer systems.

The Diagnostic Phase: Video Inspection and Analysis

Every successful remediation intervention begins with an accurate diagnosis. Through a preliminary video inspection, we analyze the state of the pipe from the inside. This phase is crucial for accurately mapping the pipeline and identifying the nature and exact location of any anomalies: cracks, breaks, structural failures, root infiltrations, or faulty connections. Only after assessing the damage can we design the most effective remediation intervention.

Our No-Dig Remediation Technologies

Depending on the extent of the damage and the type of pipeline, we apply the most suitable technology for a long-lasting and effective restoration of mechanical and hydraulic functionality.

Relining with Sock (CIPP)

To rehabilitate entire sections of pipeline, we use Relining with Sock. This technique involves the insertion of a special sheath impregnated with thermosetting resins. Once polymerized, it creates a new, self-supporting and perfectly sealed pipe inside the existing one, ensuring structural solidity and optimal hydraulic efficiency.

Part-Liner Rehabilitation with Packer

In the case of limited damage, such as a crack or a localized break, the intervention is targeted and surgical. With Part-liner Rehabilitation with Packer, we apply a ""sleeve"" of fiberglass and epoxy resin directly to the damaged area, permanently sealing it without having to rehabilitate the entire pipeline.

Spray Rehabilitation

This technology involves the robotic application of a layer of special resin to the internal walls of the pipelineSpray Rehabilitation is ideal for creating a protective coating against corrosion, sealing micro-cracks and joints, and restoring watertightness to long sections of pipe.

Note: Our specialization focuses on sewer and industrial pipes. We do not repair drinking water or heating pipes in residential settings.

FAQ

It's a modern, non-invasive solution for repairing damaged pipes by working directly from the inside. This technology allows drains and sewers to be fully functional again without the need for costly and disruptive excavation or masonry work.

The main advantage is that excavation and demolition are avoided. The intervention is much quicker, minimizes user inconvenience, and has a significantly lower environmental impact than traditional methods.

Every intervention begins with a thorough diagnosis. We perform a preliminary video inspection to analyze the condition of the pipe from the inside. This allows us to map the pipeline and identify the nature and exact location of any problems, such as cracks, breaks, root infiltrations, or subsidence.

No, we apply the most appropriate technology depending on the damage. To rehabilitate entire sections, we use Relining with Sock (CIPP); for localized damage, we use Part-Liner Rehabilitation with a packer; to create protective coatings or seal micro-cracks, we use Spray Rehabilitation.

For limited damage, targeted intervention is required. We use Part-Liner Rehabilitation: we apply a "sleeve" of fiberglass and epoxy resin directly to the damaged area, permanently sealing it without having to rehabilitate the entire pipeline.

No. Our specialization focuses exclusively on sewer and industrial pipes. We do not repair drinking water or heating pipes in residential settings.
