Pipe Materials That Pipe Bursting Can Be Done On

Trenchless sewer repair is an innovative technology that replaces old or damaged pipes without excavation. NuFlow South Pacific offers reliable and efficient trenchless sewer repair in Waimea, HI that addresses various pipe problems, from blockages to leaks, while minimizing disruption to the surrounding environment.

One popular trenchless repair method is pipe bursting, which involves breaking the old line while simultaneously pulling a new one into place. The pipe bursting method can be done on an assortment of pipe materials, such as the following.

PVC Pipes

PVC pipes are a popular choice due to their durability, corrosion resistance, and ease of installation. These pipes are commonly used for sewage, drainage, and potable water lines and can be replaced using trenchless pipe bursting when they become damaged or need to be upgraded. PVC pipes can be pulled through the old pipe while broken up, resulting in a new, seamless pipe resistant to leaks and blockages.

Concrete Pipes

Concrete pipes are commonly used for stormwater and sewer lines but can become brittle and crack over time. Trenchless pipe replacement using pipe bursting is a viable solution for concrete pipe issues. This method involves breaking up the old concrete pipe while simultaneously pulling a new, more durable pipe through its place. The new line can be made of HDPE, which offers resistance to corrosion and provides long-lasting performance.
