[QUOTE="THAT Gurl, post: 4261383, member: 45551"] We just went through all this (cast iron pipes in a concrete slab). The estimate to reline was, IIRC, $15k. Plus, given the amount of corrosion the plumber saw, he said relining them wouldn't really solve my problem because my pipes were just one bad day away from collapsing in on themselves as it was. We only had to cut the slab in 3 separate places (all 3 were junctions that were failing). Everything else looked good (cameras are a WONDERFUL invention) YEAH!! 😍😍😍 Anyway, in listening to the guys talk while there were working, relining the pipes rarely, if ever, solves the problem for any length of time. It's just the latest, greatest thing right now in the plumbing world and then -- well here ya sit ... Quite literally ... Pay me now AND pay me later type of deal ...😭😭😭 [/QUOTE]
