Drain Repair: Everything You Need to Know

Plumbing companies offer a crucial service called drain repair. This involves fixing or restoring 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.

Drain Repair: What is it important?

When things go wrong in our plumbing systems, it can significantly impact the quality of your life. Clogs, which can cause standing water and breeding grounds for bacteria and other harmful insects, can lead to minor problems in the drains. Broken or failed pipes can lead to stagnant pools that allow mosquitoes to breed. We might cause more serious damage if we try to fix the problem ourselves.

Unblocking blocked drains

Different substances can cause blocked drains. These include grease buildup in kitchen sinks, toilet paper clogging from loos and hair buildup in bathrooms sinks and showers. Over the years, our experienced team has dealt with many cases of blocked drains. To quickly find and remove blockages in your pipes, we use the most up-to-date tools like water jetting equipment or electronic locators.

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

Sometimes, replacing whole sections of piping is not necessary. Instead, we can use cured-in place pipe (CIPP), which allows us to repair sewer lines that have been damaged without trenching them. This involves inserting epoxy liner in the damaged sections of pipe before it is shaped and hardened.

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