What is Brush Coating?
Brush coating is an innovative technique used to rehabilitate existing pipelines by applying a protective, epoxy-based coating to the interior of pipes.
This method effectively seals cracks, fills gaps, and creates a smooth, new surface within the pipe, extending its lifespan and improving flow efficiency. Our service utilizes Picote Solutions, a leader in the field, ensuring high-quality results every time.

Benefits of Brush Coating:
01
Extends Pipe Lifespan
Our Brush Coating service can add up to 50 years to the life of your pipes.
This significant extension means you won't have to worry about pipe replacement for decades, saving you time, money, and stress in the long run.
02
Prevents Future Leaks and Root Intrusions
The seamless, epoxy-based coating forms an impenetrable barrier inside your pipes.
This barrier seals existing cracks and weak points, preventing future leaks that could lead to water damage in your property.
03
Improves Flow Capacity
While the coating slightly reduces the pipe's diameter, it significantly improves flow capacity. The smooth surface of the coating reduces friction, allowing water to flow more freely through the pipes.
04
Minimally Invasive Installation
Unlike traditional pipe replacement methods that often require extensive excavation, our Brush Coating service is minimally invasive.
We typically access your pipes through existing entry points, eliminating the need for destructive digging.
05
Cost-Effective Solution
Compared to full pipe replacement, Brush Coating is a highly cost-effective solution.
It eliminates the need for expensive excavation, new pipe materials, and extensive labour.
06
Quick Installation with Minimal Downtime
Our efficient Brush Coating process can often be completed within 1-2 days for most residential projects.
This quick turnaround means minimal disruption to your daily routine
07
Versatility Across Pipe Materials and Sizes
Our Brush Coating service is highly versatile and suitable for various pipe materials including PVC, clay, concrete, and cast iron.
We can treat pipes ranging from DN50 to DN250 in diameter, making this solution applicable to a wide range of plumbing systems in both residential and commercial properties.
08
Enhanced Pipe Performance
The coating not only repairs existing damage but also enhances the overall performance of your pipes.
The smooth, uniform surface reduces the buildup of scale, minerals, and debris, helping to prevent future clogs and maintaining optimal flow over time.
How It Works:
Inspection: We begin with a detailed CCTV inspection to assess the condition of the pipes and determine the best course of action.
Cleaning: The pipes are thoroughly cleaned using Picote's powerful cleaning tools to ensure a smooth surface for coating.
Coating Application: The brush coating is applied using our specialized equipment, creating a strong, seamless lining within the pipe.
Final Inspection: After the coating has cured, a final inspection ensures that the repair is flawless and ready for years of use.
