Problem: After remodeling an oyster bar restaurant in North Port, Florida, a 40-foot, 3-inch drainline running under the kitchen and dining hall was found to have almost completely deteriorated. Instead of digging up the floor, the owners called The Plumber’s Plumber to solve the issue. To add to the challenge, there was only one access point for the line.
Solution: After inspecting the line, the company determined it was suitable for a CIPP repair. The municipality required the repair to meet Florida Building Code, so the team reached out to APEX CIPP in Sarasota for assistance. Craig Underwood confirmed that a CIPP repair met FL Building Code, so they proceeded. Due to the repair being in-building and with a bend in the pipe, the company chose to use BRAWOLINER along with BRAWO UVPox from BRAWO SYSTEMS USA. This styrene-free, epoxy-based light-cured resin allowed them to prewet the liner in the shop, transport it to the job site, and install and cure it within an hour using the BRAWO Pico system.
Result: The owners were thrilled that the plumber resolved the issue quickly and efficiently without needing any further remodeling. 240-796-5007; www.brawosystems-usa.com
