Drain Repair: Everything You Need to Know

Drain repair is a vital service offered by plumbing companies, and it involves restoring the functionality of broken or damaged drainage systems. Drain problems can become serious if they are not dealt with promptly. Flooding could cause severe damage to your property.

The Importance of Drain Repair

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. Failed or damaged pipes can create stagnant pools where mosquitoes easily breed. When we resort to address the problem ourselves, we might end up causing even more severe damages.

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

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.
