How Pipe Lining Can Solve Root Intrusion in Sewer Pipes

Prestige Pipe Lining | Raeford, NC

You’ve probably never thought about your sewer line—until something goes wrong. Maybe you’ve noticed slow drains, strange smells, or worse, a full-on backup. If you’re in Raeford or surrounding areas, and you’re dealing with repeated drain issues, there’s a good chance that tree roots are to blame.

Here’s the good news: you don’t have to dig up your yard to fix it.

At Prestige Pipe Lining, we help homeowners eliminate root intrusion for good using advanced pipe lining technology. It’s fast. It’s effective. And best of all—it doesn’t destroy your landscaping in the process.

The Problem: Root Intrusion in Sewer Pipes

Raeford and the surrounding Sandhills region are known for their beautiful trees, but those same trees can become a nightmare when their roots invade your sewer line. Tree roots are naturally drawn to the moisture and nutrients inside sewer pipes. They can find even the tiniest crack or joint, sneak in, and start growing.

Over time, the roots expand inside your pipes like a net, blocking the wastewater flow. The result? Recurring clogs, backups, and expensive plumbing repairs. In worst-case scenarios, the pipe can collapse entirely.

Traditionally, fixing this meant excavation—digging up your yard, driveway, or even parts of your foundation to replace the damaged pipe. It’s invasive, expensive, and time-consuming.

But that’s not your only option anymore.

The Solution: Trenchless Pipe Lining

Prestige Pipe Lining offers a trenchless solution that stops root intrusion in its tracks—without tearing up your property. It’s called epoxy pipe lining, and here’s how it works:

  1. Inspection & Cleaning
    First, we run a high-definition camera through your sewer line to pinpoint the root intrusion and assess the pipe’s condition. Then, we use high-pressure water jetting to clear out the roots and debris, leaving a clean surface for lining.
  2. Installing the Liner
    Next, we insert a flexible resin-saturated liner into your existing pipe. The liner is positioned precisely over the damaged areas, then inflated so it adheres to the interior walls.
  3. Curing
    As the epoxy cures, it hardens into a smooth, seamless new pipe within your old one—essentially creating a brand-new pipe without removing the old one. The result is a strong, root-resistant, and long-lasting solution that restores flow and integrity.
  4. Final Inspection
    Once the liner is cured, we perform a final camera inspection to ensure the job was done perfectly. You get to see the results for yourself—clean, clear, and root-free.

Why It Works Against Root Intrusion

Trenchless Pipe lining doesn’t just fix cracks—it prevents roots from getting in ever again.

The new interior pipe is completely seamless, which means there are no joints, cracks, or gaps for roots to enter. It also improves flow efficiency, resists corrosion, and lasts 50+ years with minimal maintenance.

You’re not just solving a problem—you’re upgrading your plumbing system.
