Birnie Plumbing and Drains Becomes First Hamilton Company to Deploy LightRay UV Pipe Rehabilitation Technology

HAMILTON, Ontario, Oct. 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Birnie Plumbing and Drains, Hamilton’s century-old plumbing leader, is proud to announce that it is the first plumbing company in Hamilton to bring the advanced LightRay UV cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) technology to local homeowners. This new approach represents the next generation of trenchless pipe repair, allowing families to benefit from faster, cleaner, and more durable plumbing solutions.

For more than 100 years, Birnie Plumbing and Drains has earned the trust of homeowners across Hamilton by combining dependable service with a forward-looking approach to plumbing technology. From everyday services like drain cleaning, tap installation, sink installation, and burst pipe repair to 24/7 emergency response, the company has always focused on helping families feel secure and supported in their homes. By introducing LightRay to Hamilton, Birnie continues its tradition of innovation with a solution designed specifically for residential needs.

“Families want plumbing repairs that are reliable and long-lasting, but they also want the work done quickly and without tearing up their property,” says Rob Birnie, President of Birnie Plumbing and Drains. “LightRay delivers on all counts; it saves time, minimizes mess, and provides homeowners with peace of mind that their pipes will hold up for years to come.”

How LightRay Benefits Hamilton Homeowners

• Less disruption at home – Unlike traditional pipe replacement, LightRay is trenchless, meaning there’s no need to dig up lawns, driveways, or finished basements. Repairs happen underground, leaving your home and yard intact.
• Faster pipe repairs – The UV curing process activates only when the liner is in position, cutting repair times down from days to just hours and reducing stress for families.
• Durable results – Once cured, the liner forms a seamless, corrosion-resistant new pipe inside the old one, providing a strong, long-lasting fix that helps prevent future leaks and costly water damage and most importantly, keeps the roots out!
