Pipeline Restoration's advanced pipe lining process will restore your existing small diameter copper piping system to compete against a new replacement copper piping system. The application of epoxy lining will restore a deteriorated copper line with the following benefits:

• Epoxy lined pipes protect from future corrosion or pinhole leaks indefinitely. New pipes start to deteriorate the moment the water is turned on. Studies conducted at the University of Virginia have shown that pinhole leaks ‘can be caused exclusively by a reaction between potable water and a normal copper tube.’

• Epoxy coating creates a permanent protective shield between water contact and the metallic surface of pipe, which means no more pinholes with copper pipes. Independent testing agencies have confirmed the benefits of lining with approved epoxy coatings: ‘To protect against copper leaching, existing copper pipes can be lined with a potable water epoxy coating to act as a barrier.’ No further corrosion of the piping system resulting in the leaching of lead or copper into the drinking water will occur.

• Less cost than a conventional re-pipe or re-route. Long term savings. Leaks will be eliminated in epoxy protected systems. No additional costs for plastering and painting. Restoration without cost of waste disposal associated with re-piping. Reduced down time, resulting in less inconvenience to property owners or tenants.  Property owners save substantial time, money and disruptions compared to traditional re-piping remedies.

• Restoration is a green solution—no new copper lines required, no increased load on landfills. Restoration is also eco-friendly because all materials used are completely non-toxic when cured and results in no toxic waste.
