Pipe Relining Services in the GTA

Who Should Consider Pipe Relining?

Pipe relining is appropriate when a pipe has lost structural integrity due to cracking, corrosion, root intrusion, or joint separation, but the pipe has not fully collapsed.

‍Galaxy Plumbing Inc. provides pipe relining services for:

Homeowners with cracked or root-damaged clay or cast iron drain lines that are causing recurring backups
Owners of older GTA homes built between the 1940s and 1980s with deteriorating Orangeburg or clay tile sewer laterals
Property managers needing drain rehabilitation in multi-unit residential or commercial buildings without full excavation
Homeowners facing repair costs for pipes running under driveways, finished basements, or landscaped areas
Commercial operators requiring a fast, low-disruption solution to restore a drain line without closing operations

What Does Pipe Relining Include?

Galaxy Plumbing Inc. delivers pipe relining as a fully managed service from diagnosis through to verification, compliant with Ontario Building Code and ASTM relining standards:

Pre-relining CCTV camera inspection to document pipe condition and confirm relining suitability
Hydro jetting to remove debris, grease, scale, and root material from the pipe interior
Custom liner sizing and resin preparation matched to the host pipe diameter and repair length
Liner insertion by inversion or pull-in-place method depending on pipe access and configuration
Resin curing using UV light, ambient temperature, or hot water to form a hard, seamless structural pipe
Post-relining camera inspection to confirm bond quality, bore continuity, and no voids or defects
Lateral reinstatement where connecting branch lines were sealed by the liner installation

How Does the Pipe Relining Process Work?

Galaxy Plumbing Inc. follows a proven, documented process for every pipe relining project:

Camera Inspection

A CCTV camera is run through the pipe to map defects, measure diameter, confirm access points, and determine whether relining is structurally viable.

Pipe Cleaning

Hydro jetting clears the interior of root material, grease deposits, scale, and any loose debris that would prevent the liner from bonding to the pipe wall.

Liner Preparation

A calibrated liner of felt, fibreglass, or composite material is impregnated with epoxy or polyester resin and cut to length based on the measured repair section.

Liner Insertion

The liner is inserted by inversion (pressure-driven) or pull-in-place method and inflated against the pipe wall using a calibration tube or bladder.

Curing

Depending on the resin type, curing is completed by UV light train, circulating hot water, or ambient temperature over a period of one to four hours.

Final Inspection

A camera is run through the relined section to confirm full wall adhesion, smooth bore, correct lateral reinstatement, and no voids or wrinkles.

What Pipe Materials Can Be Relined?

Pipe relining works across a wide range of pipe materials commonly found in GTA properties. The table below shows which materials are suitable for relining and the typical condition that triggers the work.

Pipe Material	Relining Suitable?	Common Defect Addressed
Clay Tile	Yes	Root intrusion, joint separation, cracking
Cast Iron	Yes	Internal corrosion, scale, pinhole leaks
Orangeburg	Yes (if not delaminated)	Deformation, collapse risk, porosity
Concrete	Yes	Cracking, joint failure, corrosion
PVC	Selective	Joint separation, minor cracking
Collapsed Pipe	No (replacement required)	Full structural loss

For pipes that have fully collapsed or are offset beyond the threshold for liner installation, Galaxy Plumbing provides emergency repairs and trenchless or open-cut replacement as the appropriate alternative.

Nancy Pascua ★★★★★

Just fantastic service. Spent extra time trying to figure out a mysterious water leak. Super professional and knowledgeable. Gave me options and time to decide how to proceed. Would use again and would recommend to anyone.

Bev Battaglia ★★★★★

Fantastic job by Galaxy Plumbing! Appreciated the professionalism and informative service from this team. I had a toilet and sink back up issue which the technician was able to come and resolve the same day I called. At the same time, recommendations were shared to prevent similar issues in the future. Great attitude and top notch workmanship!

Jason Lobo ★★★★★

Rob's service from start to finish was exceptional. Spoke with him about getting a dripping bathtub faucet fixed. Walked me through how to remove the valve cover. Also correctly guesses that it was a water cartridge issue. Booked a plumber the next day and sent me a text with the ETA. The communication through out was fantastic. For some one who has never booked a plumber for a smaller job, understand that it's not cheap. And you have to consider the cost of parts if not covered under warranty. Would definitely recommend Rob and use his company again if needed.
