Drain Repair

All You Need to Know About Drain Repair

Drain repair is a vital service offered by plumbing companies, and it involves restoring the functionality of broken or damaged drainage systems. If not addressed in time, drain issues can escalate to serious problems like flooding which would cause tremendous damage to your property.

The Importance of Drain Repair

The quality of life significantly reduces when things go wrong with our plumbing systems. Clogs, which can cause standing water and breeding grounds for bacteria and other harmful insects, can lead to minor problems in the drains. Failed or damaged pipes can create stagnant pools where mosquitoes easily breed. We might cause more serious damage if we try to fix the problem ourselves.

How We Can Help

At our plumbing company, we specialize in all forms of drain repairs such as CCTV inspection, pipe relining, unblocking blocked drains, and drain clearing across Greater London. Our team is made up of highly skilled professionals that are equipped with the latest technologies to quickly identify the root cause of any drainage problem and fix it.

Unblocking Blocked Drains

Blocked drains can be caused by different substances including grease buildup from kitchen sinks, toilet paper clogging from toilets or hair buildup from bathroom sinks or showers. Our experienced team has handled countless cases involving blocked drains over the years. We use state-of-the-art tools such as water jetting equipment and electronic locators to quickly locate and eliminate blockages in your pipes.

CCTV Drain Inspections

Our plumbing professionals use sophisticated technology such as closed-circuit television (CCTV) inspections for diagnosing difficult-to-identify problems within drain systems including nasty surprises such as underground pipe collapse without excavation required.

Pipe Relining

In some cases replacing entire sections of piping may not be necessary — instead, cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) technology allows us to restore broken sewer lines without having fully trenching them. This involves inserting epoxy liner in the damaged sections of pipe before it is shaped and hardened.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use DIY methods to repair damaged drains?

DIY efforts are not always permanent. Moreover, homeowners often lack the necessary equipment and knowledge to complete the task correctly. You could end up doing more damage than good.

How often should my drains need to be inspected?

We recommend at least once per year. This can change depending on weather patterns, drainage system age, and maintenance (or lack thereof).
