All You Need to Know About Drain Repair

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.

The Importance of Drain Repair

The quality of life significantly reduces when things go wrong with our plumbing systems. 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.

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.
