Reline copper pipes

I am getting pinhole breaks in copper pipes. The cost to repair and replace is rather high. I understand there is a system to reline the pipes with some type of epoxy. You don't have to tear the house apart to do this. My worry is HOW long will that epoxy last before requireing another reline? How long do most plumbers guarantee the reline? Thanks

The following is a quote from one site that has the reline.
"Water supply pipe epoxy relining generally costs about the same as removing the old pipes and installing new ones; including the cost of average surface refinishing after the fact. The homeowner benefits from the longer warranty on the epoxy method and the quicker completion. Homeowners with upgraded finishes and larger homes will find the relining process to be the least cost approach."
