Typical warranty periods for relined pipes can vary, but generally fall into three main durations:
Our warranties ensure peace of mind, with a competitive 15-year standard coverage for labour and materials. We also offer up to 25-year warranties for materials and lifetime guarantees on large-scale projects, subject to evaluation.
When evaluating a pipe relining warranty, verify the scope of coverage. The highest quality warranties ensure both the workmanship and the durability of epoxy materials applied in the relining process to prevent leaks, blockages, or other issues in damaged pipes from occurring.
There are several key factors that can impact the length of a warranty provided on relined pipes:
The length and usage of the pipe, along with its flow rate, can significantly influence warranty durations. Smaller pipes with minimal usage may come with 10-15 year warranties. Yet, bigger commercial pipes or sewer mains are one of the most seen areas with substantial usage typically warrant shorter 5-10 year warranties owing to increased wear and potential intrusion from tree roots.
Warranties can often vary depending on the pipeline’s location, from indoor fixtures to outdoor sewer line infrastructure. Indoor pipes usually come with longer 10-25 year warranties, while underground sewer pipe systems often carry shorter 5-10 year warranties due to soil movement and corrosive elements.
The type of epoxy used in the relining process impacts durability and therefore warranty length. Standard epoxies provide 10-15 years of coverage. Advanced ceramics or 100% solids epoxies can offer extended warranties of up to 50 years due to their superior resistance to corrosion and flow abrasion.
Understanding the critical importance of a warranty tailored to your pipe type and usage, we encourage reviewing the included coverage, supported by guidance from our friendly team. Our team clearly explains warranty options for optimal long-term solutions.
Relined pipe warranties characteristically encompass the labour our experts exert in the setup procedure and the durability of the epoxy materials used in crafting the new pipe inner lining. This includes:
