Storm drains carry heavy flows and often run under roads, parking lots and buildings, where failure causes sinkholes, flooding and expensive closures. Metal pipes corrode, concrete cracks and joints open as the ground moves. Storm drain lining restores the pipe from inside, protecting the soil around it and preserving the surface above. Owners and managers across the Knoxville region use it to avoid cutting roads and parking areas.
We inspect the pipe by camera or sonar where needed, clean out sediment and debris, bypass flow when required, and install a structural liner. Larger diameters often suit UV or hot-water curing. We coordinate with property managers and public agencies on schedules and traffic control, and we explain clearly what fits the pipe condition and the water volume it must carry.
When this is the right call
Rusted metal pipe
Corrugated or steel storm pipe loses wall and develops holes.
Joint gaps and infiltration
Open joints allow soil in and water out.
Frequent flooding
A damaged or blocked storm pipe can no longer carry its design flow.

Storm Drain Lining: answers
Can a liner handle storm flows?
Liners are designed with the pipe and flow in mind. We size the liner and discuss capacity during the estimate.
Do you work with property managers and agencies?
Yes. We prepare scopes and schedules suited to managers and public offices.
What if the storm pipe has voids around it?
Grouting or other stabilization may be advised along with lining.
How do you handle water during lining?
We bypass or divert flow as needed.
