Buried Pipe Repair
Avoid the cost and hassle of excavation and pipe replacement with two unique buried pipe repair options from Afzir. Our state of the art, hand layup fiber composite will build a structurally independent, corrosion proof pipe within your existing pipe. Smaller diameter pipes and irregular shapes like corrugated pipe can be repaired and reinforced with a thick film (1/8 – 1/4 inch) spray applied structural lining. Save time and money by asking the experts at Afzir how we can help solve all your problems with buried pipe, however big or small.
Advantages of repair of pipes with FRP include:
- Most repairs are trenchless, requiring zero or minimal excavation
- Can increase the pressure rating of the pipe significantly
- Repairs can be done internally or externally
- Minimal increase in wall thickness (typically ¼ inch (5mm))
- The smooth FRP lining will improve flow capacity of the pipe
- Repairs are fast with minimal downtime
- Ideal for spot repair of only damaged areas
