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. 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. 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. Over the years, our experienced team has dealt with many cases of blocked drains. 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.
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 might end up doing more harm than good.
How often should my drains need to be inspected?
We recommend that you visit at least once a year. However, this can vary depending on such factors as the age of your drainage system, weather patterns, usage patterns and maintenance (or lack thereof).
