Drain Repair: Everything You Need to Know

Plumbing companies offer a crucial service called drain repair. This involves fixing or restoring damaged drainage systems. Drain problems can become serious if they are not dealt with promptly. Flooding could cause severe 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. 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

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.

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.

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).
