Typical Drainage Defects needing to have Drain Repair


Drain Repair for Fractured Pipework
Most drainage systems over 20 years old are constructed from earthenware pipework which is susceptible to fracturing, leading to the escape of water in the surrounding ground area.
This can cause deterioration of the system and lead to further more serious structural damage. In turn the egress of water can affect the structural stability of nearby buildings.and cause susbsidence or movement which can  be very expensive to rectify
as we would have to dig up the area around the damage part of the building to get the drain repair cctv survey equipment to assess the damage so that is why we recommend you get the drain repair done asap
Drain Repair for Collapsed Pipework
Collapsing drainage usually occurs after excessive pressure from above or as deterioration of lesser damage and the resultant water loss. The broken drainage can cause frequent blockages and disrupt the use of a system. The continual loss of water into the ground can lead to subsidence.or movement which would be a dissaster in terms of costs and interuption as we would need to investigate the cause and extent of the damage  to the drainage system that is why it is imperitive to get the drain repair solution done earleier rather than later this is what we have encountered amongst the many clients we have dealt with over the years
Drain Repair for Root Damage
Roots can either cause damage to a drainage system in the form of broken pipework or be the result of root growth in the vicinity of an existing drainage problem. Typically the roots cause frequent blockages and generally continue to attack the pipework if left unchecked.again we would recommend you get the drain repair cctv survey solution to preempt any major damage to your property which can even lower the value of your property which we are certain you would not want that to happen so as the saying cause prevention is better than cure every time.
Drain repair for Deformed Pipework
During the 1960's a new pipe material called pitch fibre was commonly used. This was subsequently found to be inherently defective, with the pipework becoming deformed and delaminated and the resulting 'squashing' causing frequent blockages. When the deterioration has progressed insitu repairs may not be possible.therefore we always recommend our clients to make sure you at least get a drain repair survey done using our state of the art equipment utilising cctv to record and photo the damage below the ground or surface we will then send you a full report and a copy of the dvd so you can see for yourself the extent of the damage so you can make an informed decision about you needing a drain repair or not
