How It Works

How To Fix a Pinhole Leak in Copper Pipes

A traditional repipe can be time-consuming and expensive, usually involving cutting into walls, ceilings, and floors, as well as going days without water. Our patented three-step solution uses less invasive methods to restore metallic and non-metallic pipes without extensive digging, costly landscaping repairs, or restoration inside your home or building.

Step 01

Air Drying of Pipes

First, we connect air hoses to the piping system. The system uses preheated, filtered air to drain and dry the pipes.

Step 02

Corundum Cleaning

Once the pipes are dry, we prepare them with an air-and-sand mixture to carefully clean the inside of the pipes.

Step 03

Epoxy Coating Application

The code-approved epoxy coating is applied, and once cured, the pipes are reassembled, flushed, and pressure tested. In most cases, water service can be restored the same day.

Step 04

Epoxy Application

Our approved epoxy is distributed through the piping system coating the pipes. Once all the lines are coated, the epoxy is cured and water can be returned to service in as little as two hours, which is the fastest return to service approved in the industry.

Testimonials

Take It from Our Customers

"ePIPE is a life saver. We had a pinhole leak in our plumbing after 20 years. We had the leak repaired but were concerned about the future. Their team came and used their equipment to clean, sand and coat our existing copper pipes with a patented process of epoxy to coat the pipes throughout our home. They were on time and efficiently did this entire job in two days. Their crew was trained, clean and protected our floors and home during the whole process. Highly recommend."
