● Pipe Descaling & Restoration

Old pipes, restored from the inside.

Decades of scale, rust, and corrosion choke an old cast-iron line until it barely flows. We grind it back to bare pipe and flush it clean, restoring full diameter and years of life, with no jackhammers and no tearing out walls.

● Know The Signs

When a pipe needs descaling.

Scale builds up slowly, then all at once the line can barely pass water. If your home has older cast-iron or galvanized drains, these are the warning signs it’s time to restore them before they fail.

Backups that keep returning

If the same line clogs again weeks after a snaking, the pipe wall is caked with scale that a cable can’t remove.

Brown or discolored water

Rust-tinted water draining out points to corrosion and tuberculation flaking off the inside of the pipe.

Cast iron 25+ years old

Older cast-iron and galvanized drains scale and corrode with age. Restoring them beats a costly full replacement.

Whole-house slow drainage

When every fixture drains sluggishly, the main is narrowed by build-up coating the pipe end to end.

The snake keeps snagging

A cable that catches and drags inside the pipe is hitting rough scale ridges, not a single soft clog.

Recurring leaks or pinholes

Corrosion that’s eating through the wall shows up as small leaks. Descaling and restoring buys the line years more.

● How We Restore It

Back to bare pipe in four steps.

Restoration is methodical, not destructive. We open the pipe back up, clean it to the wall, and prove the result on camera, all through existing access points.

01

Camera the line

We scope the pipe first to confirm it’s scale, gauge how heavy the build-up is, and check the wall is sound enough to restore.

02

Mechanical descaling

A flex-shaft with a chain knocker spins inside the pipe, grinding hardened scale and rust evenly off the full wall.

03

Hydro-jet flush

High-pressure water flushes every loosened particle out of the line, leaving the restored diameter completely clear.

04

Verify on camera

A final camera pass shows bare, full-diameter pipe, and you see the before and after for yourself.

● What We Remove

What's choking your old pipes.

Three things narrow an aging drain line until it fails. Descaling tackles all of them, taking the pipe back to the diameter it had the day it went in.

Scale & Mineral Deposits

Hard mineral scale layers onto the pipe wall over years, slowly shrinking the opening until water can barely pass. A chain knocker grinds it back off.

Rust & Corrosion

Cast iron rusts from the inside out, forming rough, flaking tuberculation that snags debris and discolors the water. We clear it down to solid metal.

Hardened Grease & Sludge

Years of grease and sludge bake onto scale into a tough crust no snake will budge. Descaling plus a jet flush strips it out for good.

● Pipes We Restore

Restore it, don't replace it.

Replacing a buried cast-iron line means torn-up floors, walls, or yard. Descaling restores the same pipe at a fraction of the cost and mess, residential and commercial.

● Why Homeowners Call Titan

Years of life, added back.

A full pipe replacement is a last resort, not a first one. If the wall is still sound, descaling restores flow and buys the line years more, for a fraction of the cost and disruption.

“Our 1960s cast-iron main was down to a trickle. Steven descaled the whole line, jetted it out, and showed me the before and after on camera, full diameter back, no digging. Saved us from a five-figure replacement.”
