The concept of drain re-lining is simple. We use a lining 'sleeve' that contains super durable polyester resin fibre, giving quality and strength far superior to the original pipe material. This sleeve is then inserted along the length of the damaged drain, and is then molded into place using air pressure, then it is left to cure.
Pitch Fibre Pipes can collapse at any time, so we understand that when something goes wrong, it can be a stressful time, adding pressure to your busy day. We are very familiar with these pipes and can provide a variety of ways to repair and replace them if and when they fail.

Some drain repair problems will require us to excavate the area, which we know can seem daunting. The last thing you want is to dig up parts of your driveway or garden.
But there’s no need to worry, our team have all the necessary tools and experience for excavation works. We aim to rectify any repairs as quickly as possible, leaving your site just how we found it: Clean and tidy.
If the job looks to be more substantial, we will work with you to find the best time to carry out the excavations. We want to repair your drains with minimal disruption wherever possible.
We often provide no-dig drain repairs. These are a form of non-disruptive drain repair with no need for excavation. This can make it a more affordable solution, as well as saving you lots of time.
We use our renowned CCTV drain survey cameras to identify the problem and use our specialist equipment, including our high-pressure drain jetting, to remove blockages and repair damaged pipelines and drainage systems. We can fix your drains without having to expose the pipe by digging up any land.
Cracked pipes are typically some of the most common repairs we carry out. We have a specialist technique known as patch drain repair that can suit all drain diameters. It allows us to fix a pipe from the inside with a patch that is cured inside the pipe using heat or our high-tech Blue Light Curing technology.
As part of one of our no-dig drain repair processes, drainpipe patch repair is efficient and non-disruptive.

In cases where the drains are inside the property’s boundaries, the landlord is often in charge of repairing them. Although this can vary based on the type of property. Detached homes normally do not share sewers, so the homeowner is responsible for the drains inside the property’s boundaries.
On the other hand, the owner is solely in charge of the drain up until the point where it is shared by other properties in terraced homes with shared sewers.
Accidental damage to drains owned by the policyholder is frequently covered by building insurance plans. Common examples are drains that are blocked by root growth or that have broken due to subsidence. We advise seeking assistance from drainage repair specialists, such as Cotswold Drainage, who can propose the most affordable and least disruptive repair alternatives and provide a FOC quotation.
It is important to note that drainage is frequently excluded from building insurance coverage. For instance, some insurers refuse to cover claims when the submerged drainpipes are constructed of pitch-fibre, a material that was employed in the 1950s and 1960s but is now thought to be inherently flawed.
The amount you will pay to unblock your drains depends on several factors, including the severity of the blockage and what caused it. For instance, if we come out to unblock your outdoor drains and notice that you also have cracked drainpipes, which caused the problem in the first place, we will have to carry out more work than clearing a less complex blockage.
The cost of unblocking your drains also depends on how urgent the issue is. Immediate help might cost more than maintenance appointments scheduled in advance. Luckily, Cotswold Drainage offers all of its drain unblocking services at a competitive price, including our urgent, 24-hour callouts.
If the cost of getting your drains unblocked is putting you off, remember that dealing with the problem properly now will always be cheaper than putting it off and dealing with more serious consequences in the long run.
Homeowners and business owners are typically responsible for maintaining the drains and plumbing within their property boundaries. This includes sinks, toilets and showers within the home, as well as outdoor pipes and drainage systems within their property limits.
Meanwhile, local councils are responsible for maintaining public drains and sewerage systems, including those located on the street directly outside your property. Utility companies may also be responsible for maintaining any drains and sewer systems connected to their water-supply or sewage-treatment plants.
If you’re not sure who is responsible for fixing a blocked drain, it’s always best to consult a licensed plumber or contact your local council or utility company for guidance. It’s important to address blocked drains quickly to prevent further damage and potential health hazards.
There are several reasons why your outside drain may keep blocking. The most common cause is the accumulation of debris, like leaves, twigs and dirt. The good news is that this is also incredibly easy to remove, either by hand or using a high-powered jet system.
Nevertheless, if a poorly designed drainage system is the cause, you may need to call in the professionals. Repositioning your drains can help to ensure that water is draining properly, as can diagnosing and treating any root ingress problems.
If your outdoor pipes have suffered any structural damage, either caused by age, the weather or other external factors, this can also lead to frequent blockages. In such cases, it’s best to consult a licensed drain-unblocking company like Cotswold Drainage to deal with the root cause of the problem.
