What is Drain Relining – Do You Need It?

If you’ve got a cracked pipe, tree root intrusion, corrosion, or signs of a leak, you might be imagining the worst—excavators tearing up your driveway or garden to get to the problem. OMG! Not to mention the cost of all that chaos! But wait! There’s a smarter, cleaner solution: it’s called Drain Relining. AKA No Digging Drain Repair

“Tell us more”, we hear you cry! Drain relining is a fast, cost-effective way to repair damaged pipes without digging. It works by creating a new pipe within your old one, sealing cracks, leaks, and gaps from the inside out—often making it stronger than the original.

So How Does Drain Relining Work?

Here’s what happens step by step:

1. CCTV Drain Inspection – We start with a detailed CCTV survey to assess the damage and measure exactly what’s needed.
2. Pipe Cleaning – Before we can reline, the pipe must be thoroughly cleared of debris, blockages, and buildup.
3. Resin Lining – Using specialist equipment, a flexible liner soaked in resin is inserted into the pipe.
4. Curing – The resin hardens (or cures), forming a durable inner pipe that seals all damage—ready to use like new.

This process is quick, clean, and causes minimal disruption to your property. (It’s a Win Win!)

Why Choose Relining over Replacement?

Relining has some major pluses:

• No digging – Saves your driveway, lawn and flowerbeds from destruction
• Faster repairs – Completed in a fraction of the time
• Stronger pipes – Resistant to future cracks, root intrusions, and corrosion
• Eco-friendly – Far less waste and disruption to the environment

If you’re dealing with damaged drainage, relining is often the best long-term solution—without the mess.
