Galvanized & Steel Pipe Lining
Rusted steel and galvanized lines choke on scale and leak at threads. Lining creates a new smooth interior without tearing out the pipe.
The details, in plain English.
Steel and galvanized pipes rust from the inside, narrowing the passage and leaking at joints and threads. Over time they can become so restricted that flow is poor and clogs are constant.
After mechanical descaling, a liner coats the interior with a smooth, corrosion-proof surface, sealing leaks and restoring much of the lost diameter. It is a practical choice in occupied buildings where replacement would mean opening walls.
