· It stops root intrusion permanently. 

 

3. With FORMADRAIN the Entire Pipe is Lined:

     With our system, the new pipe completely fills the old one – with absolutely no seams or joints.  The entire pipe is one single piece.  And there are no gaps anywhere around the new pipe, so there is no chance of tree roots – for example – penetrating and causing future damage (with many other systems the new pipe lies at the bottom of the old one leaving a gap at the top). 

 

4. FORMADRAIN Does Perfect Transitions:

     Systems that use felt have to have pieces sown together to deal with a transition, creating a weakness.  The FORMADRAIN system creates perfect 3-4, 4-5 or 4-6 transitions, all in one piece from one size pipe to another – and any size main or lateral pipe can be lined, from 2 to 60 inches.

5. FORMADRAIN is Suitable for All Kinds of Piping:

     Whether you need to repair public sewer systems, industrial, residential or commercial pipes, the system works perfectly.  It also does not matter what material the pipe is made of (clay, concrete, asbestos cement, corrugated steel, etc.).  The system can be adapted to any need. 

6. Our System Cures in 35 Minutes:

     Our special steam heated curing system means that a new pipe can be cured in about half an hour and ready to use (a 50-foot lateral pipe can be ready in 35 minutes).  Other systems can literally take hours before the curing process is finished, as they are dependant on the temperature in the environment.  Our “hot cure” system also means higher quality control for you. 

7. FORMADRAIN Gives You Time to Get the Job Done:

     The FORMADRAIN system allows you up to four hours – once the resin is mixed – to get the job done.  With other systems such as “ambient cure” you can't control the “open” time (after resin and hardener are mixed); the time you have for repair relies on the ambient temperature. This benefit is possible due to our exclusive materials which are designed to harden when they are heated (our system is simple to use and efficient).

8. The Process is Completely Odorless:

     A major problem with other systems is the odor from the chemicals used in pipe repair, which commonly smell very bad and are usually toxic (requiring a face mask). The FORMADRAIN system is odorless. This is a major plus on residential or commercial sites (restaurants, hospitals, etc.).

9. A FORMADRAIN Pipe Will Last for 50 Years or More:

     Our special materials allow for a relatively thin and yet incredibly strong pipe - stronger than any other system on the market.  Unlike other systems which use felt (with polyester, etc.), our system employs fiberglass and a special epoxy resin that is really tough – it can’t be broken with a sledgehammer. As one contractor put it, “The strength of the cured liner was better than we had ever imagined.” (John E. Reid, Illinois).

We especially like that cure time in most cases is 35 minutes compared to some systems with 4 to 6 hours.  Also, the working time is up to 4 hours…  The Formadrain system lets us line from one foot to hundreds of feet. This allows us to handle many job situations.  The strength of the cured liner was better than we had ever imagined.”

The Simplest Most Cost-Effective No-Dig System Available

1. FORMADRAIN is a True No-Dig System...

     Almost all lateral pipe repair or “rehabilitation” systems involve digging – even the so-called “trenchless” systems. 
The FORMADRAIN system requires no digging
whatsoever. This means:

· Speedy repairs (your job gets done faster)

· Savings in time, labor & equipment

· Minimal setup space (no digging)

· Environmentally friendly 

· Safe for public utilities

 

2. FORMADRAIN Completely Renews Damaged Pipes:

     Instead of repairing or “rehabilitating” a damaged pipe, the FORMADRAIN system actually renews it with a completely brand new pipe – right inside the old one (with minimal loss in diameter). The system can be used to repair:

· Split, cracked or broken joints

· Poorly installed or leaky joints

· Water infiltration;

· Leakage problems (resulting from aging, corrosion, etc.)

A Few Testimonials

 

“I wish to thank you for the excellent job you did when executing the work at my house.  Everything was accomplished according to plan and budget.  The work was executed with a high degree of professionalism.  I was very satisfied with the way FORMADRAIN efficiently and rapidly took care of my drain problems (backups caused by roots).  The alternative, digging up my front yard, would have been a nightmare, since there are 3 mature trees in my front yard.

 

To top all this off, I saved thousands of dollars!!!  I would like to end by mentioning that the FORMADRAIN process was as simple and economical as was promised when the contract was signed.” 

 

– Gilles Dufresne
Homeowner, Montreal

 

“I gave FORMADRAIN a contract to repair an 8 inch diameter sewer that was 65 feet long, with their new technology – which was very successful and we are very happy about it.  A camera inspection was done after work completion and the results were excellent.  We would not hesitate to recommend this new technology, which allowed us save time and money.”

 

– Jacques Massé
Commercial Building Manager
Montreal

 

“I have to admit, I was very anxious, having in mind the nightmare of having to break the basement floor to replace the old piping. I was very reassured by your working methods, which are very clean, very calm. Your confidence to succeed reassured me. 

 

Working in collaboration with the City of Westmount Inspector, we viewed the before and after video, and he claimed to be satisfied with the work that had been done. Everything was done successfully. 

 

Never has a video provided as much joy. I could at last breathe again; knowing that my problems were solved and having witnessed exemplary team work.  I will always be available to testify of the way you acted.”  

 

– Isabelle Lafrenière, Homeowner, Westmont

 

“Following our collaboration, I would like to emphasize my appreciation with regards to the quality and the speed of your work.
