Addressing Drain Leaks, Excavation, And Repairs
Drain leaks can occur due to various factors, including ground movement, material deterioration, root ingress, corrosion, and accidental damage. Identifying the cause of these leaks is crucial for effective repair. We employ a range of advanced techniques and technologies to locate structural faults and determine the most optimal repair method. This may involve excavation to replace damaged sections or inserting a GRP liner to restore the drain's integrity without extensive digging. Our comprehensive approach ensures that your drainage systems are repaired efficiently, minimising disruption while maintaining optimal functionality.

Gully Repairs And Manhole Maintenance
We provide expert services for repairing damaged drains, broken gullies, soil pipe elbows, and rest bends. Our maintenance and repair services extend to defective manholes, including manhole half channels, benching, walls, frames, and covers. All repairs are conducted in compliance with relevant British Standards, ensuring safety and reliability. We use only industry-standard materials for all repairs to guarantee long-lasting results. By addressing issues promptly and effectively, we help maintain the integrity of your drainage systems and prevent further complications.


Road Openings And Sewer Connections
When it comes to road openings for drainage repairs and sewer connections, adherence to the New Road and Street Works Act 1991 is essential. Property owners are typically responsible for drainage to the main public sewer connection. If this connection lies beneath a public footpath or highway, a Road Opening Licence must be obtained. Our specialist road opening contractors handle all necessary paperwork and applications, ensuring compliance with regulations while minimising delays. We understand the intricacies of this process and provide seamless service from start to finish, allowing you to focus on your property while we manage the details.
In-Situ Drain Lining And Re-Lining Services
In-situ drain lining, or re-lining is an innovative method that allows us to place a new pipe within an existing one without excavation. This technique significantly reduces disruption while providing a permanent structural repair. The lining material is designed to withstand ground movement better than traditional materials like vitrified clay or concrete. This method ensures improved flow characteristics and is suitable for various domestic, industrial, or municipal applications. The installation process is efficient; the new pipe is typically ready for use on the same day as installation. This solution is widely accepted by local authorities and insurance companies alike.
Pipe Bursting And Re-Rounding Techniques
We employ pipe bursting and re-rounding techniques when drains have deteriorated beyond repair with traditional methods like GRP lining. This process involves using a 'mole' that bores through the existing drain while creating a channel for a new GRP liner to be inserted. This method is particularly effective for Pitch Fibre drains commonly found in Essex and Hertfordshire from the post-war era. As these drains age, they become porous and lose structural integrity due to surrounding earth pressure. Our pipe bursting technique allows us to replace damaged sections without costly excavations or surface disruption, ensuring your drainage systems are restored efficiently.
