There is provided a pipe lining method wherein a lateral pipe lining
material and a main pipe lining material are securely joined. After a
lateral pipe has been lined, a start liner is applied to the main pipe
and a main pipe lining material is then inserted. A heating wire for
melting the start liner is mounted on a surface of a flange of the
lateral pipe lining material during or after lining of the lateral pipe.
While the main pipe is being lined, the heating wire is heated to melt
the start liner existing between the flange of the lateral pipe lining
material and the main pipe lining material. When the resin in the main
pipe lining material is cured, the main pipe lining material and flange
of the lateral pipe lining material are integrated. This allows the
lateral pipe lining material and main pipe lining material to be reliably
joined.
