CIPP Lining Through Existing Cleanouts, explained.
A sewer cleanout is a capped pipe that gives direct access to your line, usually near the house or at the property line. For trenchless work it is the front door: the camera, the cleaning tools and the liner can all enter through it.
When a cleanout is in the right place and the pipe is in the right condition, lining from it means no excavation at all. If a cleanout is missing, damaged or poorly placed, a new one can often be added as part of the job. We always camera the line first to confirm that the cleanout reaches the damage and that a liner can travel the full run.

What if my cleanout is damaged?
Damaged cleanouts can usually be repaired or replaced as part of the job. We tell you what we find during the first camera pass.
What if I do not have a cleanout?
We can often install one with a small opening, or use another access point. The layout of the house decides the best option.
Does every cleanout work for lining?
Not every one. Size, angle and position matter. We check before recommending lining.
