Damaged or deteriorating pipes do not always need to be completely removed and replaced. With professional pipe lining and Picote services in Indianapolis, IN, qualifying drain and sewer pipes can be cleaned and restored from the inside with less disruption to your home.
Pipe damage can lead to recurring clogs, slow drains, sewage backups, unpleasant odors and leaks around your property. Addressing these problems early can help prevent further deterioration and reduce the risk of a more extensive plumbing repair. Hope Plumbing, Heating and Cooling can inspect your pipes and determine whether lining, Picote cleaning or another repair method is appropriate.
Picote Pipe Cleaning and Restoration
Picote equipment provides a powerful way to clean and prepare aging drain and sewer pipes. Its rotating tools can remove heavy scale, rust, roots, mineral deposits, grease and other buildup from inside the line.
Picote cleaning is especially helpful for older cast iron pipes, which can become rough and heavily scaled over time. Removing this material can improve drainage and provide a clearer view of the pipe during a follow-up camera inspection.
Depending on the condition and location of the pipe, Picote equipment may also be used as part of a brush-coating process. During this service, the pipe is thoroughly cleaned before layers of protective coating are applied to its interior. This may help restore qualifying branch lines, vertical stacks and pipes located beneath floors or behind finished surfaces.
