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.

Drain Repair: What is it important?

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. Broken or failed pipes can lead to stagnant pools that allow mosquitoes to 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. 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there DIY techniques that can be used to fix 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 be inspected?

We recommend at least once per year. This can change depending on weather patterns, drainage system age, and maintenance (or lack thereof).
