Orangeburg pipe? Sounds like a fruit, yes, but it sounds more like trouble.

Most of us here in Forsyth County, NC have clay or cast iron pipe as our original sewer drain lines for our homes. While those two materials present their own unique challenges, a lucky, and by lucky I mean not at all, have Orangeburg pipe. Recently we helped a customer in the Ardmore neighborhood in Winston-Salem with their Orangeburg drainage system by lining their pipe. Their sewer line was located directly under a massive tree in their postage stamp front yard as well as being close to 8 feet down. Excavation was not an option for all the apparent reasons. Our trenchless technology allows us to uniquely handle situations like this with care. Plumbers will simply look at the job and, with a straight face, tell a customer that the only option is to dig it up and replace it without giving the consequences a second thought. Please don’t fall for this simplistic solution. The Pipe Boss will save you time, money, and property damage while restoring a new lifetime to your sewer drain line system.

Orangeburg Pipe: A Brief Overview

An Orangeburg pipe is a type of sewer pipe that was commonly used in residential plumbing systems in the WW2 era due to material shortages. This unique pipe material is crafted from wood pulp and pitch pressed together, creating a lightweight and cost-effective option for sewer line installations.

Initially popular due to its affordability and easy installation process, Orangeburg pipes have now gained a reputation for their susceptibility to deterioration and collapse over time. This deterioration can lead to a range of drainage issues, ultimately resulting in expensive repairs for homeowners.

At The Pipe Boss, we understand the challenges associated with repairing Orangeburg pipe, which is prone to deterioration and blockages. One effective solution we offer is trenchless pipe lining, a proven method for rehabilitating deteriorating pipes without the need for extensive digging or excavation.

Advantages of Trenchless Pipe Lining for Orangeburg Pipe Repair

  • Minimally Invasive: Trenchless pipe lining involves inserting a liner coated with epoxy resin into the existing Orangeburg pipe. This liner is then inflated and cured in place, essentially creating a new pipe within the old one. This process eliminates the need for digging trenches, minimizing disruption to your property.

  • Durable and Long-Lasting: The epoxy resin used in trenchless pipe lining creates a smooth, seamless, and jointless pipe within the existing Orangeburg pipe. This new lining is highly durable and resistant to corrosion and cracking, offering long-term reliability.

  • Cost-Effective: By avoiding the need for extensive excavation, trenchless pipe lining can help you save on labor costs, restoration expenses, and the overall duration of the repair process. This method is a cost-effective solution for restoring Orangeburg pipes to full functionality.

  • Environmentally Friendly: Trenchless pipe lining is a sustainable repair option that minimizes the environmental impact of pipe rehabilitation. With reduced excavation and disruption, this method helps preserve your landscape and minimizes waste generation.
