Installing cast iron pipe




















Pipelining can be considered replacement or repair depending on whether the whole pipe length will be lined or just a section. If only a section of pipe a spot repair is lined, it is considered a repair. If you line the whole pipe from start to finish, it is basically like getting a brand new pipe installed aka replacement.

Pipe bursting is where a new HDPE high-density polyethylene pipe is attached to a winch with a cone-shaped bursting head and pulled through the damaged line.

The damaged pipe breaks apart as the new one takes its place. Jobs range from a few feet of repair to hundreds of feet, thus changing the pricing per amount of needed work.

There will always be a base cost starting at permitting, contractor mobilization, project minimums, and then prices move on from there.

Call: Name Required. Email Required. The ends of pipe to be joined should be clean and bone dry. When working in a vertical line, the bell end of the pipe should face up. Insert the spigot end of the next section of pipe into the bell end and then secure this length of pipe to a framework with metal strips or by some other means so that it will not fall over. Now pack twisted oakum into the bell until it is about 1" from the top.

For a 4" soil pipe, you will need about 5 feet of oakum for each joint. The oakum should be solidly packed into the bell with a tool called a yarning iron. See Figs. If any of the fibers of the oakum protrude, they should be burned off with a blow-torch. After the oakum is well packed into place, the joint is ready to be caulked with lead.

You will need about 3 pounds for 4" pipe. Needless to say, enough lead should be melted at one time for several joints. Lead can be melted in a gasoline-fired melting pot. When the lead is molten, pre-heat the ladle that is used to carry the lead so that it will not chill the molten lead before you get it to the joint. Take the hot ladle and push back some of the dross or slag that lies on the surface of the lead and then scoop up a ladleful of lead.

Do not disturb the molten lead in the pot any more than is necessary. The lead must be poured into the joint in one operation. Watch out : Do not pour hot lead on a wet joint because the moisture will cause the hot lead to fly out. It is wise to keep your face away from the joint while you pour so that if any of the lead does fly out it will not hit you. The next step is the final caulking of the joint and this can be done just as soon as the lead is cool.

Caulking backs the lead firmly inside the joint. It must be done because lead will shrink slightly as it cools and, therefore, unless the joint is caulked it will not be tight. The first step in caulking is done with an out-side-caulking tool. Place the end of this tool on the lead and then strike it gently with a hammer. If you strike it too hard, you may jar the lead loose from the joint. The packing list will give a specific description of each item shipped.
