What Is Drain Lining?

Drain lining is a method of repairing damaged drainage pipes without the need to dig up the ground. A new pipe is created inside the existing pipe using a flexible liner that is inserted into the damaged pipe and then cured in place. This creates a new, watertight pipe that can last for many years.
