Warning signs you need waste pipe relining
If you're experiencing recurring plumbing issues, it may be time to consider waste pipe relining. Watch out for:
Slow draining water
Sinks, showers or toilets draining slowly could indicate a blockage or pipe damage.
Frequent blockages
Constantly dealing with clogs in your waste pipes is a sign of a bigger underlying issue.
Foul odours
Bad smells from your drains or around the property often point to a damaged or blocked waste pipe.
Sewage backup
Wastewater backing up into sinks, toilets or drains means your waste pipes need attention.
Water leaks
Unexplained puddles around your property could indicate leaking or damaged underground waste pipes.
Unusual noises
Gurgling or bubbling sounds in your drains indicate trapped air from blockages or damage.
Common causes of waste pipe damage
Blockages
Build-up of grease, hair and food waste puts pressure on waste pipes, leading to damage or cracks.
Chemical corrosion
Exposure to harsh chemicals corrodes pipes over time, weakening their structure and causing leaks.
Tree root intrusion
Roots from nearby trees invade and damage waste pipes, causing blockages or burst pipes.
Shifting soil
Ground movement from weather or construction stresses underground pipes, leading to cracks or misalignment.
Improper installation
Poorly installed pipes suffer premature wear and tear, leading to frequent issues.
Our waste pipe relining process
We use advanced waste pipe relining techniques to repair damaged pipes without any digging. Here's how it works:
- 1
Inspection
CCTV cameras inspect your waste pipes and assess the full extent of the damage.
- 2
Cleaning
The damaged pipe is cleaned with high-pressure water jetting to remove any blockages or debris.
- 3
Resin installation
An epoxy resin liner is carefully inserted to cover all compromised areas, then expanded and rapidly cured for a precise fit — a seamless, durable new pipe inside the old one.
- 4
Final inspection
A follow-up CCTV inspection confirms the relined pipe is functioning perfectly and the issue is resolved.
Steps to prevent future waste pipe issues
Preventing waste pipe problems is key to avoiding costly repairs:
Proper waste disposal
Keep grease, oils and non-biodegradable items out of the drain to prevent blockages.
Regular maintenance
Schedule routine inspections and cleans to catch potential issues early.
Install drain covers
Covers in sinks and showers catch debris before it enters the pipes.
Tree management
Plant trees and shrubs away from waste pipes to prevent root intrusion.
Ready when your drains aren't.
