Drain Repair
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. 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
When things go wrong in our plumbing systems, it can significantly impact the quality of your life. Minor drain issues like clogs can also become health hazards as they cause standing water that’s breeding ground for harmful bacteria and insects. 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.
What We Can Do To 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. We have a team of skilled professionals who are equipped with advanced technologies that enable us to pinpoint the root cause of any drainage issue and resolve it promptly.
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. 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 process comprises inserting epoxy liner into the damaged pipe sections before inflating it to shape and hardened.
Most Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use DIY methods to repair damaged drains?
DIY attempts are most often not a permanent fix, more importantly, homeowners lack specialized equipment or knowledge required to get the job done right. You could end up doing more damage than good.
How often should my drains be inspected?
We recommend at least once per year. This can change depending on weather patterns, drainage system age, and maintenance (or lack thereof).
