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.

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. 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.

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. Our experienced team has handled countless cases involving blocked drains over the years. 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

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.

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 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).
