Introduction to Pipe Relining for Swimming Pools

A plumbing leak in your pool system can be a significant inconvenience.

Small drips and trickles may appear harmless but can escalate into costly water loss and structural damage if ignored. When traditional systems reveal an underground pool pipe beginning to leak, the former method of jackhammering and substituting substantial plumbing stretches equates to a disordered, intrusive, and expensive repair. This is the juncture where trenchless pipe relining has emerged as an effective solution for rectifying a troublesome swimming pool leak.

Erskine Park Plumbing offers expertise in cutting-edge no-dig pipe relining methods to repair splits, cracks, and deterioration in submerged plumbing systems. We use a flexible epoxy resin lining for drain lines, enabling repairs that enhance the pipe interior and create a robust 'pipe within a pipe’.

Our expert team conducts precise leak detection to accurately determine the origins of leaks within the swimming pool’s plumbing network.

The curing process bonds the lining to the inside of the pipe, sealing any leaks from the inside out. Swiftly, in a matter of hours, we can ensure your pipes emerge stronger than traditional pipe materials, restoring their structural integrity without needing to replace extensive segments. No need to excavate your premises, as pipe relining can remedy leaks such as those in the leak skimmer line, as well as key segments beyond the pool’s structure like return channels, filter units, and the primary drain, minimising interruption to your schedule.

The operation addresses suction side leaks by draining the suction and pressure side zones, when the pump is inactive, without the need to empty the entire pool or dismantle water features. We carefully protect your property, ensuring the pool area remains untouched, completing most relining projects in a single day. Additionally, keeping the water level stable renders it a cost effective, hassle-free alternative to conventional plumbing repairs.

Pipe relining is renowned for its long-lasting results, often with no need for follow-up services for over fifty years. We bolster our quality work with robust warranties, ensuring your once pool leaking concerns are durably addressed, as echoed by our satisfied customers. Should concerns arise, simply call us at Erskine Park Plumbing on 1300 349 338 to unveil our trenchless leak repair services tailored for your swimming pool.

What Causes Leaking Pipes in Swimming Pools?

There are several most common causes of leaks in swimming pool pipes:

Tree Root Intrusion

Tree roots can invade plumbing pipelines surrounding swimming pools, seeking out leaks and causing significant damage. Down under the surface, roots are attracted to any moisture and will grow towards pipes, eventually breaking through cracks or joints. PVC pipe and other plastic pipes are particularly vulnerable to root invasion.

Damage from Heavy Machinery

It’s important to recognise that heavy-duty construction tools and machinery, when utilised in landscaping, pose a significant risk of damaging your pool plumbing if handled carelessly. The risk of damage from machinery weight on poorly compacted soil around the pipes is significant and should not be underestimated.

Ground Shift and Pipe Movement

Expansive soils such as reactive clay can instigate shifts under pool foundations as moisture concentrations fluctuate. Under such conditions, pipes can shift and strain, leading to joint separations and cracks, which may detrimentally impact potable water consistency in your home.

Corrosion

Over time, even hot water treatments and chemicals like chlorine and salt used to treat pool water can degrade and corrode metal components in electrical plumbing systems. This necessitates rapid sewer repair and remediation due to pinhole leaks and weak points becoming apparent in sewer pipes.

Improper Installation

Pool pipes that are poorly layered or not installed to the proper depth are vulnerable to ground movement, freezing temperatures and damage from above. Improper pipe joins also often leak.

Ageing Pipes

Like any other pipes, swimming pool plumbing will eventually weaken and deteriorate with age. Old pipes are prone to cracking and leaking, and eventually become broken pipes, especially PVC pipes over 10 years old.

Here at Erskine Park Plumbing, our team utilises advanced techniques for pool leak detection to do know precisely the origin of swimming pool pipe leaks and prevent damage to your garden. We offer trenchless pipe relining, a technique that renews compromised pipes with minimal disruption to your pool area and garden.

How Pipe Relining Works to Repair Leaks

Pipe relining is a trenchless method of repairing leaks in swimming pool plumbing. It includes incorporating a pliable epoxy resin liner into pipe interiors to seal leaks and re-establish structural robustness.

Here’s a concise overview of the innovative pipe relining process, which requires no invasive digging for leak repairs:

Drain Camera Inspection

Our technician uses a drain camera to examine your pipes’ interior, identifying the precise locations and extent of leaks or damage.

Cleaning and Prep

We thoroughly clean out the pipe to remove any dirt, debris or deposits that could affect adhesion of the new liner. The pipe is prepared with a sanding tool.

Resin Liner Insertion

We saturate a felt liner with resilient epoxy resin and insert it into the pipe, ensuring the exterior remains unaffected. The liner bonds firmly, showcasing the proficiency of sealing a pipe with the damaged parts cut out replaced, without invasive external interference.

UV Curing

Understanding the importance of precision, we utilise UV illumination to swiftly cure the lining, typically within 1-2 hours. Within just a few hours, this technique effectively binds the pipe fuze inside, securing the lining to the host pipe.

Reopen Plumbing

Once cured, we allow water to flow freely through the pipes, reopening and testing your pool’s plumbing system for leaks. The relined pipes should now be restored without leaks or flow disruption.

Pipe relining not only is cost-effective and eco-friendly but also extends the lifespan of pipes without requiring excavation. The resin liner ensures there’s no further corrosion, erosion, or leaks for decades to come.

The Pipe Relining Process Step-by-Step

At Erskine Park Plumbing, we take a meticulous approach to pipe relining that allows us to repair leaks and restore pipes with minimal disruption. Here is a step-by-step overview of our process:

  1. Initial CCTV Inspection - We commence with an advanced drain camera for a test see, unwavering in our commitment to uncover any concealed problem areas that might be causing leaks.
  2. Pipe Cleaning - We clean out any built-up deposits or obstructions to prepare pipes for relining.
  3. Resin Saturation - The epoxy resin, which can be utilised in various forms, is applied with a special coating designed to adhere to your pipes.
  4. Liner Installation - Using air pressure, we invert the resin-saturated liner inside the pipe to coat the interior walls, eliminating the need for excavation.
  5. Curing - We use industrial UV lights to cure and harden the epoxy liner for a long-lasting bond and seal.
  6. Final Testing - Once cured, we reopen your plumbing system and perform leak tests to ensure repairs are complete.

Typically finalised in a day, the relining procedure protects against leaks in your pool and prevents damage to your lawn and surrounding structures or landscaping.

The Benefits of Pipe Relining for Pools

Pipe relining offers key benefits for repairing leaks in swimming pool plumbing systems:

Minimal Disruption

There’s no need for exhaustive digging with regard to your underground plumbing or the vicinity around your pool, thanks to pipe relining, ensuring no chaos follows. We can help by completing the process in just one day without draining the entire pool or removing decking and landscaping features.

Long-Lasting Repairs

The epoxy resin lining, a crucial part of a two-component system, forms a durable 'pipe within a pipe’ that withstands corrosion and leaks for over fifty years. This method is valued for providing long-term peace of mind with minimal disruption to daily life and the surrounding areas.

Cost-Effective

Relining strengthens your existing pipes and avoids the significant expense and disruption of major pool plumbing overhauls. This significantly reduces labour costs and disruption to your poolside routine, offering a cost-effective solution unlike methods demanding pool putty or extensive amendment.

Enhanced Water Flow

The smooth epoxy liner improves water flow and circulation compared to old, damaged pipes. This pipe restoration method also fortifies general pool sanitation from the inside pipe outwards.

When to Choose Pipe Relining Over Replacement

Pipe relining is often a better choice than excavation for leak repairs in swimming pool plumbing. Here are signs that relining is your best option:

Minimal Pipe Damage

For pipe leaks or fissures distributed across several sections, relining can encapsulate affected areas without replacing the whole system. Our experts assess the extent of damage to determine if relining is suitable.

Leaks Around Joints

When leaks occur at pipe joints but the straight pipe sections are intact, relining provides an affordable and easily fixed repair. The liner seals joints rather than replacing full pieces.

ACC Pipes

Asbestos cement pipes are expensive and hazardous to remove. Relining allows ACC pipes to remain undisturbed while restoring their integrity.

Under Structures

Relining ensures there is no need for disruptive jackhammering and digging near pool amenities, decks, walkways, or other structures. No destruction of surrounding areas without digging up the landscape.

Faster Solution

Pipe relining, which circumvents the need to cut out and replace sections, can often be finalised within a single day, causing scant disruption. Replacement would typically need cut out and dig out operations, yet relining requires minimal excavation and re-concreting time.

Erskine Park Plumbing conducts comprehensive assessments to ascertain when pipe relining is the appropriate method for fixing pool leaks. Contact us today on 1300 349 338 to schedule an inspection and discuss the best solutions for your pool leak issues.
