There are several manufacturers who make no-dig patch/spot repair kits. Here are links to a few --

I do alot of "Patch work" ( I do not like to use that name. Think of it as a repair job and not a "Patch Job")

Give Primeline Products a call and Talk to Bob. (1-877-409-7888)

Price yourself to make money. There is a company that I heard of is selling a liner at 15 beans a foot. ( 4 inch pipe) Their Customers think they are paying 15 a foot the whole job. When the job is done a 15 foot repair is at 8'g's. I call that bait and switch.

Their bait and switch jobs make us all look bad.

Know your numbers before you give a price. Know the product you are installing and any cure times. Some resins are 3 hour cure time and some are 8 hours.
The market is big and still growing.

I waited several years to post on this and I can say that the Fernco Pipe Patch does work great. The Company that makes these kits for Fernco back it and know what they are doing. However you can save alot of money if you build your own air push rod

like i mentioned in another thread, i just bought into the permaliner pull in place kit. ive only used it on a couple jobs, (currently bidding on a couple more) but it seems to work great.

If you would like to get started in no dig repairs and do not want to spend 50 to more g's you can start out with fernco pipe patch (we use it and it works) then move up to latteral linning and then move up to 8" to the sky. We started out doing 8-24" sectional linners and then started doing the smaller lines. Smaller lines are more profit for the investment. you dont need to spend your life savings to do relinning as long as you can build alot of the stuff yourself or check with someone like Ken Barton at Stephen's Technologies. You can repair 4" lines for as little as 4g's camera not included, or reline 4"-6" pipe for 11-18g's (camera not included) depends on what you would like to do and how good you are at making some of your own parts.
