Drain Replacement

While Pipe Relining is usually the most cost-effective and convenient method of repairing broken drainage pipes without the need to dig, sometimes it is not possible and the only option available is excavation and replacement. There are many reasons for this but the most common are:

    Pipe falling the wrong way (water running backwards)
  • check-icon
    Badly misaligned or detached joins
  • check-icon
    Solid obstruction inside the pipe which cannot be removed
  • check-icon
    No downstream access available to insert the liner

Should this be the case, we would recommend excavation and replacement as the best solution to repairing your broken drain. Using the latest CCTV drain cameras and pipe location equipment, we can mark the exact location where the ground needs to be dug, minimising the size of the excavation and disturbance to your garden. Using only trained staff who work on drain repairs and pipe installation for a living, we can complete the work with a minimum of fuss and delay.
