Method Definition

What Is CIPP Pipe Lining?

CIPP — cured-in-place pipe — is a trenchless pipe rehabilitation method in which a flexible tube impregnated with liquid thermoset epoxy is inverted through an existing damaged sewer lateral, then cured in place to form a structurally sound, jointless new pipe inside the host pipe wall.

The installed liner is NSF-61 compliant and carries a manufacturer-rated 50-year design life. Wooley installs Perma-Liner and LMK felt-liner systems for residential laterals and fibreglass-reinforced liners for larger commercial and municipal applications.

FAQ

CIPP Pipe Lining — Frequently Asked Questions

How long does pipe lining last?

CIPP carries a manufacturer-rated 50-year design life. Field data from the earliest CIPP installs (late 1980s) shows pipes still performing beyond 35 years.

Does pipe lining work for root intrusion?

Yes — root intrusion at clay-tile joints is the single most common CIPP application. The liner creates a jointless surface that roots cannot penetrate.

What is the difference between pipe lining and pipe bursting?

Pipe lining RESTORES an existing pipe. Pipe bursting REPLACES the pipe. Lining is for aged-but-intact pipe; bursting is for collapsed or Orangeburg.

How much does CIPP cost per foot in Ohio?

Columbus-area CIPP runs $80–$250 per linear foot for residential 4-inch lateral work. See the full cost guide →
