Replacement Pipes

If your home’s plumbing system is beyond repair, Black Plumbing can install a whole new one. Older pipes can contaminate the water supply in your home, as well as leak frequently. The use of poor materials, such as polybutylene, is another reason people have their systems replaced. Polybutylene piping has been proven to be ineffective and can fail at any time.

If your home is more than 40 years old and/or has galvanized piping, call Black Plumbing to learn what benefits replacing your system can bring. Falling water pressure and temperature fluctuations can also mean the need to replace your system. Finally, rust can spread easily throughout piping, so give us a call if you notice areas of rust in your piping as well.

Epoxy Pipe Restoration

At Black Plumbing, we can apply epoxy (ePIPE) pipe lining to your water pipes with leaks, even pin hole leaks. This is a great alternative to pipe replacement in cases of encrusted or leaking pipes. Our licensed professionals can let you know if this is a good option in your situation. ePIPE lining has been used by the U.S. government, including the Army Corps of Engineers, as well as foreign governments, for more than 20 years.

Still not sure about this technology? Give Black Plumbing a call. We’d love the opportunity to sit down and talk about epoxy pipe lining with you. We’ll also be completely honest with you when it comes to making a recommendation. Overselling is not the business we’re in. If your water pipes are encrusted or leaking in spots, call us today and find out if epoxy pipe lining may be the solution!

How Does ePIPE Work?

If you have rusty water pipes, pin hole leaks, or low water flow, ePIPE liner may be the answer you’re looking for.

First, the pros at Black Plumbing will heat and air dry your water pipes using preheated, filtered air. Then the pipes are cleaned using air and abrasive materials. This also prepares the inside of the pipes for the epoxy coating itself. Finally, an air and corundum mix is used to sandblast the inside of the pipes before the epoxy coating is applied, completing the process.

• Stops Pin Hole Leaks – the epoxy lining will close and prevent any pin hole leaks in your piping for years
• No Wall Damage – since there’s no need to dig in order to access your water pipes, there’s less mess to clean up
• Cost-Effectiveness – there’s no going through walls, ceilings, or floors, so your final bill is much lower
• Even Better than the Original – and the process is much more quiet since the repairs take place within the pipes themselves
• Better Water Flow – pipe buildup and pin hole leaks can cause low water flow, which the epoxy lining solves
• Cleaner Water – rust buildup inside your pipes won’t seep into your water supply

Video Pipe Inspection

With video inspection equipment, we can now see behind walls, inside ceilings, in and around pipes, inside pipes and sewer systems. This process is ideal for quick, nondestructive diagnosis for those hard-to reach places. This image can be placed onto a flash drive so that it can be played back for further diagnosis. This equipment can be used for residential and commercial clients.

Sometimes, clogs or issues in your water pipes won’t be visible to the naked eye. Black Plumbing uses video inspection technology to determine the exact location of any issues or clogs. Once we find it, we can treat the problem in the most effective way possible. Slow-running drains may be caused by debris blocking your plumbing system, or it could mean a more serious problem such as a break in the line itself or a tree root working its way in.

Video pipe inspections allow us to find the problem quickly so we can get to fixing it as soon as possible.

Trenchless Pipe Replacement

If you need a new drain installed, call Black Plumbing and ask about our trenchless drain installation. This offers a way of installing new drains without having to cause damage to your property or landscaping. Though there’s no damage, the new drain is just as solid and durable.

Our trenchless drain services including the following:

• Pipe re-lining
• Drain pipe lining

• Trenchless pipe lining
• Trenchless pipe re-lining
• Re-pipe alternative

Benefits of Trenchless

First and foremost, trenchless drain installation is far less costly than traditional installations. Since we do not have to repair your property or landscaping following the installation, we can subtract much of the normal cost of a new drain installation project.

Second, since we don’t have to spend any time digging up your property, and then repairing it afterward, trenchless drain installation is typically completed in only a day or two. Therefore, you get back to your normal, everyday routine in less time than you would be able to with a traditional installation.

If you have any questions about this process or its benefits, please call Black Plumbing.

Pipe Bursting Technology

Our technicians are trained in the latest pipe bursting technology, where the new line is pulled through the existing pipe, with minimal excavation and a less intrusive method for replacing broken or cracked pipes. The method starts with threading a bursting head inside the broken pipe using a cable and pulling rod. As the bursting head travels the length of the old pipe, it is slowly and safely broken apart and replaced by a new pipe. We service pipe ranging from 2″ to 12″ for residential, commercial and municipal buildings.
