Protect Your Home with Sewer Lining Services

Your sewer line is one of the most important parts of your property’s infrastructure. It quietly carries waste away from your home or business every single day, protecting your health and keeping your property safe. But like any system, sewer lines don’t last forever. Over time, pipes can deteriorate, crack, or collapse from factors like shifting soil, age, or invasive tree roots.

When damage occurs, many property owners dread the thought of sewer replacement. Traditional methods often require tearing up large sections of yards, driveways, landscaping, and even sidewalks, leaving you with unexpected repair costs and weeks of disruption.

That’s where sewer lining offers a smarter, modern alternative. This trenchless repair method restores the integrity of damaged pipes without excavation. By placing a high-strength liner inside the existing pipe, we create a durable “pipe within a pipe” that seals cracks, stops leaks, and restores reliable flow. Best of all, the process is quick, efficient, and minimally invasive.

At TCI Companies, we provide professional sewer lining services across Peoria, Bloomington, Galesburg, Champaign, Decatur, and Springfield. As part of our full range of plumbing and utility services, we combine modern trenchless technology with proven expertise. The result: long-term solutions that protect your property, save you money, and minimize stress.

Our Advanced Approach for Sewer Lining Repairs

When you choose TCI Companies, you’re getting a partner that treats your property with care and precision. Our step-by-step process ensures every sewer lining project is handled correctly the first time.

  1. Comprehensive Inspection Every project begins with a detailed video camera inspection. This technology allows us to see inside your sewer line, pinpoint damage, and determine whether sewer lining is the best solution.
  2. Pipe Cleaning and Preparation Before installation, we thoroughly clean the pipe using high-powered jetting equipment. Removing debris, roots, and buildup ensures the liner adheres properly and gives you the longest-lasting results.
  3. Liner Installation Next, a flexible resin-saturated liner, known as cured-in-place-pipe lining, is carefully inserted into the damaged pipe. Using advanced curing methods such as steam or UV light, the liner hardens into a strong, seamless new pipe within the old one.
  4. Final Inspection Once cured, we run another camera inspection to confirm the repair was successful and that your new pipe is smooth, sealed, and free-flowing.
  5. Ongoing Support We don’t just walk away after installation. Our team provides maintenance tips and follow-up guidance to help you keep your sewer system healthy for decades to come.

This process allows us to repair sewer lines with precision, efficiency, and minimal disruption, giving you peace of mind that your system is built to last.

Key Benefits of Trenchless Sewer Lining

Sewer lining using cured-in-place-pipe lining has become the go-to solution for property owners who want a cost-effective, long-term fix without the headaches of traditional excavation. Here’s why:

  • Minimal Property Disruption – Forget the backhoes and piles of dirt. Sewer lining requires only small access points, so your landscaping, driveways, and sidewalks remain intact.
  • Long-Lasting Results – A properly installed liner can last up to 50 years, often outlasting the original pipe materials. It’s a long-term investment in your property.
  • Cost-Effective Solution – By eliminating the need for excavation and large-scale property repairs, cured-in-place sewer lining is typically more affordable than full pipe replacement.
  • Improved Flow and Efficiency – The cured-in-place liner creates a smooth, jointless surface. This reduces the risk of clogs, root intrusion, and leaks, keeping your sewer system flowing like new.
  • Environmentally Friendly – Trenchless technology uses fewer resources, creates less waste, and avoids the need to haul away tons of soil and debris. It’s better for your property and better for the environment.

With TCI Companies, you’re not just fixing a problem. You’re investing in a solution that protects your property for decades to come.

Testimonials

“We had a sewer line that continued needing to be unclogged and this became at an alarming frequency. TCI came in and ran a camera down the line and informed us that they could strip the piping and re-line the piping which eliminates the service calls. The TCI Team showed up and after two days of work it was completed with great satisfaction. They provided a before and after video of the repairs that were made… First class operation. Thank you.”David F.
