Systems and methods for repairing piping

A method for sealing a pipe that is leaking a liquid, the method comprising:

• wrapping a gasket material around a circumference of the pipe at a location of a leak to create an annular cavity between the gasket material and the pipe;
• allowing at least some the liquid to exit from the annular cavity;
• securing the gasket material to the pipe via steel bands affixed to the gasket material;
• injecting an expandable grout into the annular cavity between the pipe and the gasket material;
• allowing the expandable grout to expand upon reacting with the liquid to create a seal around the leak;
• wrapping a mesh screen layer around a circumference of the gasket material;
• applying an epoxy paste layer to the mesh screen layer and the pipe;
• adhering a first reinforcement material layer comprising a first carbon fiber material and epoxy to the epoxy paste layer and the pipe to reinforce the pipe at the location of the leak;
• and
• adhering a second reinforcement material layer comprising a second carbon fiber material and epoxy to the first reinforcement material layer to further reinforce the pipe at the location of the leak.
