We have recently had our waste line lined by New Flow. How long has trenchless plumbing been in existence and has anyone had any problems with this system?

It has been around for a while and is pretty impressive for what I have seen. I don't know of any problems with it.

The biggest problem with relining, if that was what was done, is that it follows the path of the original pipe, so if you had dips before the relining, you still have them. The original pipe has to be throughly cleaned and clear inside or you will also have deflections in the new liner. The jury is still out on whether roots, which still have entry into the old pipe can separate the liner from the pipe.

Was it linning or was it bursted with a new line pulled through? We use bursting.

Depending on the situation, that may, or may not, correct pipe faults.
