Collapsed Drain Relined

One section of the drain at a property in Salisbury had collapsed, and two other runs had cracked joints.

Why do collapsed sections and cracked joints cause problems? A collapsed pipe restricts or blocks the flow, so waste backs up and the drain blocks again and again. Cracked joints let water leak out into the ground around the pipe and can let soil and roots in, which leads to blockages and further damage over time.

We removed the collapsed section of drain and relined through it. We also relined the two other runs to cover the cracked joints.

What is drain relining? Drain relining puts a new pipe inside the existing one. A flexible liner soaked in resin is inserted into the drain and pressed against the pipe wall, where it cures to form a smooth, jointless lining. It seals cracks and failed joints from the inside without digging up the whole run, which is why it is widely used for cracked joints and for lining through a section of drain that has been repaired.

The collapsed section has been removed and relined through, and the cracked joints on the two other runs are now covered by the new lining.

Another happy customer.
