FUN FACT: I used to work for the company that invented this process, Insituform. They had the patent until 1996. They were a monopoly. You can do sewer pipes big enough to drive a truck through with this process. The rub is it's super expensive and most municipalities would rather dig up a street to replace a pipe rather than use this "no dig" method.

There is resin/catalyst mixture inserted into the felt liner of the bag. You recirculate 180 degree water inside the pipe and the catalyst reacts and hardens the resin....BOOM, new pipe without digging up the street or yard or whatever.

Too expensive when I left the company back in 2001 to do residential work

That, plus the liability of running all the equipment needed into someone's home.

That was 20 years ago though. Who knows what sort of progress they have made since then.

I'd call a company called Insituform or look up CIPP or Cured in Place Pipe companies in your area and see what's available now.
