Trenchless Pipe Rehabilitation Services

Ensuring the lines of your collection system are in sound condition mitigates infiltration and inflow (I & I) issues and the chance of a future problem that could put your community and your resources at risk. HK employees are trained to complete trenchless pipe rehabilitation projects safely and efficiently, all while adhering to the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards.

As one of the leading pipe rehabilitation companies serving the Midwest and beyond, we’re equipped to tackle all kinds of trenchless sewer line repair and rehabilitation projects for municipalities and industrial facilities across the country. If you suspect you have a pipeline issue but aren't sure how to tackle it, we recommend starting with our pipe inspection services. We can then move forward with a solution using insights from our video inspections and data-rich reports. No matter what issues we discover, we can help repair and restore any storm or sanitary sewer system with little to no disturbance to utilities or the surrounding area. Our trenchless pipe rehabilitation solutions are cost-effective, efficient and long-lasting for optimal storm and sanitary sewer system flow.

What is trenchless pipe rehabilitation?

Trenchless pipe rehabilitation restores critical underground infrastructure like storm and sanitary sewer systems without digging, using minimally invasive techniques to strengthen existing pipes. Trenchless rehabilitation includes fully structural methods such as cured in place pipe lining and UV-cured pipe lining.

Centrifugally Cast Concrete Pipe (CCCP) Lining Learn More

Centrifugally Cast Concrete Pipe (CCCP) Lining

Centrifugally cast concrete pipe (CCCP) lining is an advanced rehabilitation method that restores large diameter concrete, brick, or corrugated metal pipelines. Using a spincaster, thin coats of fiber-reinforced mortar are applied inside the pipe, forming a waterproof structural layer that adheres tightly to the original pipe. This innovative technology handles various pipeline shapes and is designed for diameters ranging from 30″ to 120″. Unlike dig-and-replace methods, CCCP does not require excavation, utility relocations, asphalt removal, or road closures, minimizing disruptions to surrounding communities and traffic.

Pipe Point Repairs and Short Liner Repairs Learn More

Trenchless Pipe Point Repairs

We perform trenchless pipe point repairs (also called short-liner repairs) when only a small area of the pipe is compromised and end-to-end lining is not necessary. This targeted approach is designed to repair a specific area and eliminate the problem quickly and efficiently without digging and replacing the existing pipeline.

Trenchless point repairs applications include:

Offset or cracking joints
Pipe separations
Contained pipe deterioration
Bridge transitions
Root intrusion
Block unwanted pipe laterals

Before work can commence, all debris is removed from the pipeline and our technicians then use video technology to identify the locations which require pipe point repairs. Our team then repairs the damaged sections.

Benefits of Pipe Point Repairs

Trenchless point repairs are beneficial for sanitary sewer systems and storm sewers experiencing inflow and infiltration (I&I). Below are a variety of benefits trenchless point repairs provide.

No Excavation Needed: Trenchless pipe point repair uses no-dig technology, so surrounding pipelining and land are left undisturbed making the process quicker, safer and more affordable.

Affordable Pipeline Rehabilitation Solution: Costs associated with traditional pipeline rehabilitation including repaving the road, traffic control and labor costs are mitigated with trenchless pipe point repairs. Because a job can be completed within a few hours and no ground repairs need to be done, the cost dramatically decreases.

Easy Installation: Lining installation is completed quickly and during installation pipe services remain active without any disruptions.

HK Solutions Group's trenchless point repairs eliminate the hassles and expenses associated with open-cut excavations. Our goal is to eliminate the problem with minimal disruption to utilities services.

Slip Lining Learn More

Slip Lining

Slip lining for pipeline rehabilitation, like the other trenchless rehabilitation processes, repairs leaks and restores structural stability to the existing pipeline. The slip lining process begins with inserting a carrier pipe into the larger host pipe. It is then grouted into the space between the two pipes, and both ends are sealed. The most common materials used are high-density polyethylene (HDPE), fiberglass reinforced pipe (FRP) & PVC.

Steam Cured in Place Pipe (CIPP) Liners Learn More

Steam Cured in Place Pipe (CIPP)

CIPP is a sewer repair process for pipes needing extensive rehabilitation in lieu of line replacement. The CIPP installation process results in a jointless, seamless and structural pipe lining within an existing pipe.

Cured in place pipe liners are a great solution for pipes with damage such as cracks, holes or root invasion. CIPP is extremely cost-effective and less disruptive than traditional pipe repair methods, mitigating the impact of infiltration and inflow without interrupting traffic or other nearby utilities and services.

This no-dig pipeline rehabilitation solution is also known as inversion pipe lining. Our team first inspects the pipelines and takes all necessary measurements. We then return to our facility and use this data to design a cured in place pipe liner to the correct specifications for the existing pipeline. The result is a high-quality felt liner impregnated with a catalyzed resin that will harden during the steam curing process to create a brand new pipe inside the existing pipeline.

HK Solutions Group's expert technicians employ proven techniques and quality materials, and our CIPP liner installation services are specified to the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards.

UV-Cured Pipe Liners Learn More

UV-Cured Pipe Lining

With the acquisition of Engineered Lining Systems, HK's newest large diameter pipe solution is UV-cured pipe lining, covering pipe widths ranging from 3 inches to 86 inches in diameter. HK Solutions Group uses the UV-cured pipe lining process as a fast and cost-effective pipeline rehabilitation method. Like traditional cured in place pipe, UV-cured pipe lining is a trenchless pipeline rehab solution that limits disruptions to traffic and utilities.

In comparison to other trenchless technologies, UV-cured pipe liners have proven to be cutting-edge solutions. This modern pipe lining technology cures with fiberglass instead of felt and with zero water. The result is a more structural and long-lasting solution compared to traditional methods such as heat curing. The UV-cured pipe lining system cures in just 10 minutes, making it the most efficient pipe lining option available. The more complex the conditions, the more evident the benefits of this liner.
