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. Drain problems can become serious if they are not dealt with promptly. Flooding could cause severe damage to your property.
The Importance of Drain Repair
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. We might cause more serious damage if we try to fix the problem ourselves.

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. Our experienced team has handled countless cases involving blocked drains over the years. 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.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use DIY methods to repair damaged drains?
DIY efforts are not always permanent. Moreover, homeowners often lack the necessary equipment and knowledge to complete the task correctly. You could end up doing more damage 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).
