Common Causes of Drain Damage

1. Pipe Corrosion or Wear: Over time, older pipes can crack, rust, or burst – especially if made from outdated materials.
2. Tree Root Invasion: Tree roots can be a major cause of drain damage. As trees grow, their roots can penetrate and break apart drains, causing blockages and other issues. If you have trees or shrubs near your home, it’s important to inspect your drains for any signs of root invasion to avoid blockages or collapse.
3. Improper Installation: Poorly installed or incorrectly fitted pipes can lead to drainage problems. This includes loose pipes that vibrate when the water is running and joints that are not properly sealed.
4. Clogged Drains: Clogged drains can be caused by debris buildup over time, such as hair, food scraps and soap scum. Regular drain cleaning with a drain snake or auger can help prevent clogs from occurring in the first place.

Types of Drain Repairs

Clogged Drain Repairs

We use drain snaking or high-pressure hydro jetting to safely remove stubborn clogs. If the damage is more severe, we may recommend replacing damaged sections of pipe.

Leaky Pipe Repairs

Leaks can be fixed with specialist sealants, epoxy putty, or by replacing compromised sections of pipe. We ensure connections are tightened and fully sealed to prevent future leaks.

Burst Pipe Repairs

In the event of a burst pipe, we quickly shut off the water supply and carry out an urgent repair or replacement to minimise damage and restore service.

DIY Drain Repairs – What You Can (and Can’t) Do

While boiling water, plungers, or shop-bought drain cleaners might help with very minor clogs, they’re rarely effective for long-term solutions. Attempting DIY repairs on cracked or corroded pipes can lead to bigger problems down the line. If in doubt, call a professional.
