Sectional Pipe Lining in Florida
Flotech Environmental provides sectional cured-in-place pipe lining (SCIPP) services for municipalities, contractors, property managers, and engineering firms throughout Central Florida. Sectional pipe lining is a trenchless rehabilitation method that repairs isolated pipe defects — including cracks, joint failures, and root intrusion — without excavation, minimizing disruption and reducing repair costs.
Why Sectional Pipe Lining Matters
Isolated defects, such as cracked pipe segments and failed joints, don't always warrant full pipe replacement
Traditional excavation repairs are costly, disruptive, and slow
Trenchless sectional lining restores structural integrity and stops infiltration without digging
Florida's aging sewer and stormwater infrastructure increasingly relies on pipe relining solutions to extend service life
Sectional lining is the most cost-effective solution when full CIPP lining is not warranted
Our Sectional Pipe Lining Services
Sectional Cured-In-Place Pipe Lining (SCIPP)
Sectional CIPP lining uses a short resin-saturated liner installed at a specific location inside a pipe to repair isolated defects. Once cured, the liner bonds to the host pipe and restores structural integrity, stops infiltration, and prevents further deterioration. Flotech provides SCIPP lining for sanitary sewer and stormwater pipes throughout Tampa, Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Orlando.
Lateral Reinstatement
After sectional lining, service laterals must be reinstated to maintain connections to the main line. Flotech's technicians use robotic cutting equipment to precisely reopen lateral connections, ensuring full flow is restored without excavation.
Pre-Lining Cleaning and CCTV Inspection
Before any pipe lining project, Flotech cleans the pipeline with high-pressure jetting and performs a CCTV inspection to verify conditions and confirm liner placement locations. A post-lining inspection confirms the repair meets specifications.
Point Repair and Chemical Grouting
For defects that may not require sectional lining, Flotech also provides chemical grouting to seal active infiltration at joints and cracks. Our technicians assess each defect and recommend the most cost-effective pipe relining solution for Florida infrastructure projects.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sectional Pipe Lining
-
Full CIPP (cured-in-place pipe) lining rehabilitates an entire pipe segment from manhole to manhole. Sectional lining (SCIPP) targets a specific short section of pipe where there is an isolated defect. Sectional lining is typically more cost-effective when only one or a few spots require repair.
-
Sectional pipe lining can repair cracks, joint failures, offset joints, root intrusion, and other localized structural defects in sanitary sewer and stormwater pipelines. It is also used to stop active infiltration at specific locations.
-
Sectional lining is available for a range of pipe sizes and materials, including clay, concrete, PVC, and ductile iron. Flotech's technicians assess existing conditions and determine the appropriate lining system for each application.
-
Yes. Flotech performs CCTV inspection before pipe lining to confirm pipe conditions and defect locations, and a post-lining inspection to verify that the repair meets specifications and the liner is properly cured and installed.
