Drain Relining
Professional Drain Relining
Drain relining is a modern, no-dig method for repairing damaged or deteriorating drains from the inside, without the need for excavation. Using a technique known as inversion, a specially designed liner soaked in resin is inserted into the existing pipe and pressed tightly against its inner walls using water or air pressure. Once cured, the liner forms a durable, smooth new pipe within the original structure, restoring full function and flow.
This trenchless approach offers several key advantages. It avoids disruptive digging, which means no mess or damage to driveways, gardens or commercial property. The installation is quick, often completed within a single day, making it far more efficient and cost-effective than traditional drain replacement.
Relining drain pipes is suitable for addressing a wide range of issues, including cracked pipes, small leaks, joint displacement, and frequent blockages caused by root intrusion or age-related wear.
Our drain relining process is trusted by local authorities, surveyors, civil engineers and insurance providers alike. All drain liner repair work carried out by DrainBoss comes with a 10-year guarantee, giving you peace of mind with every repair.
Drain Relining Cost
Drain relining is an ideal solution when your drainage system shows signs of structural damage or wear. Common problems that may call for relining sewer pipes include hairline cracks, minor leaks, recurring blockages, root ingress, or joint displacement. Left untreated, these issues can lead to more serious complications such as ground movement, flooding or structural damage to your property.
Signs you might have a damaged drain include slow drainage, unpleasant odours, damp patches around the foundation, or unusual gurgling sounds from your sinks and toilets. These symptoms often point to underlying faults that can be quickly identified and resolved with a CCTV drain survey or inspection by our experienced team.
Compared to traditional excavation methods, pipe relining offers a far less disruptive and more practical alternative. There is no need to dig up floors, gardens or driveways, which means reduced noise, no mess and minimal interruption to your daily routine. The entire process is faster, more cost-efficient, and requires less restoration work once the repair is complete.
We offer both full-length sewage pipe relining for extensive damage and targeted drain liner repair using patch liners for isolated faults. This allows us to tailor the solution based on the location and severity of the issue.
Relining sewer systems or domestic drainage is suitable for both residential and commercial settings, including clay, cast iron, and plastic pipework.
