Step 1
Camera-locate the defect precisely.
A high-resolution sewer camera locates the defect to the foot and determines its length, width, and pipe diameter. This footage drives the spot liner specification.
Talk to a LiningWorks TechSpot lining — also called a CIPP patch — places a short cured-in-place liner precisely over a single defect in your sewer line. When the rest of the pipe is in good shape and only one section needs repair, a spot liner is faster, less disruptive, and less expensive than a full-run CIPP install.
Free phone consultation. Flat-rate pricing. No upsells, ever.
Spot lining is the targeted repair for a single, camera-confirmed defect. Four situations point to a spot liner over a full-run CIPP install.
A single defect that is small today will grow. Here are four signs that a spot liner is the right call now.
Precision is everything in spot lining. Four standards make every LiningWorks spot liner accurate and durable.
Same precise sequence on every spot liner job — whether the patch is over a 12-inch crack or a 36-inch joint gap.

We jet the pipe wall at and around the defect location. The resin liner must bond to clean pipe material — even minor contamination at the defect edge compromises the seal.
Talk to a LiningWorks Tech We cut and saturate a short CIPP tube sized to overlap the defect by at least four inches on each side. The resin is mixed fresh on site.
Talk to a LiningWorks Tech Using a placement tool, we position the saturated liner exactly over the defect and inflate it under controlled pressure against the host pipe wall on both sides.
Talk to a LiningWorks Tech The spot liner cures under pressure. Once cured, a camera confirms the patch is fully sealed at the defect. You see the repair on screen and keep the verification video.

Annual camera scopes kept showing root intrusion at the 31-foot mark. The rest of the 58-foot line was structurally sound. LiningWorks placed a 24-inch spot liner over the crack in a single two-hour visit. Roots sealed permanently — the verification scope confirmed full closure at the defect.
Spot lining is the right call when the camera confirms one isolated defect. There is no reason to line 58 feet when only 24 inches are defective. One targeted patch, one flat price, problem solved.

We had a plumbing emergency around the holiday's and called a local plumbing company. They cleared the line and quoted a pretty high price to dig up my yard and fix the damaged sewer line. The next day I found LiningWorks online and called Jeremiah. He was very helpful and confident they could fix my sewer line without digging. Seemed too good to be true. The lining has been installed, yard not damaged and looks to have resolved the break. Jeremiah even offered to come back and scope it at a later time to ensure it's all good. Highly recommend Lining Works for any situation where you can't or don't want to dig. Thanks guys!
LiningWorks was top notch. We had a sewer main that got damaged and was completely blocked up. They were able to clear the drain, remove all issues, and reline the entire sewer main without cutting out my driveway and yard. And they were able to get the job done in one day. I would and plan to do business these guys again in the future and would highly recommend them to others.
Where do I begin? Let's just say I had an absolute nightmare on my hands for about 5 years with my sewage. I had one company quote me 7k after he snaked my sewage line and from there I just kept snaking it every year. I dreaded the oncoming financial disaster but I bit the bullet and called LiningWorks. BEST home decision of 5 years. Jeremiah came out and tackled this chaos with grace and integrity. He got down to the root of it — after years of money, anxiety, and frustration he found out it was a city problem! I will definitely be calling LiningWorks when my lining needs replacing. Call them now, you will not be disappointed.
Hired them to redo the pipes at my home because they were old. They were very polite, answered all my questions thoroughly and did an AMAZING job. Jeremiah was the very best that I could ask for and highly recommend his services. Extremely satisfied with the work done. Thanks again Jeremiah!
I am very happy with the work that was done and the clean up after the job was done. Jeremiah and Ralph are very professional and skilled in their craft. I received an estimate and the job did exceed the original estimate. I contacted them about it and they were very understanding and explained why.
Lining Works was excellent to work with. They were perfectly professional. They were organized, efficient, and friendly throughout the whole process. They took time to answer all of our questions. Pipe lining is an incredible option and the team at Lining Works couldn't have been better. They were also transparent, honest, and consistent with their cost/pricing. We couldn't be happier. We feel very fortunate that we found Lining Works. Great guys!
The main drain line in our airbnb kept clogging up, filling the house with an awful sewage smell. We had drain cleaners come out to clear the line every couple months but it finally got so bad we had to close off our bookings. LiningWorks were very prompt in coming out. We discovered tree roots had broken up our line. Our sewage line runs under a tree and 6ft deep through our crawlspace so digging it up was going to be a nightmare. Liningworks was able to cut the tree roots out and line the pipe without any digging so that it's as good as new. Would definitely recommend them to anyone needing sewage line repair.
Lining Works responded to my request quickly and fixed my drain problem very fast. I would highly recommend you give them a call.
Precision and verification on every spot liner we place — whether it is 12 inches or 36.
Short, honest answers — same way we'd explain it on the phone.
