Plumbridge Contractors offer advanced line stopping solutions that allow repair or maintenance work to be carried out on live pipeline systems without service interruption.
This non-invasive method uses a mechanical plugging system to stop or divert flow in pressurized pipelines, ensuring essential work can continue without costly shutdowns.
Our line stopping service is ideal for utility companies, municipalities, and private contractors dealing with pressurized water or gas lines.
By creating a temporary bypass, we enable the safe installation of valves, tee fittings, and other components without affecting the integrity of the existing network.
We use state-of-the-art equipment and proven techniques to minimize risk, prevent contamination, and maintain compliance with health and safety regulations.
Whether planned or reactive, our line stopping service is a cost-effective alternative to full system shutdowns.
