Drain Lining

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.

Take care of your blocked drains: How to prevent drain blockages?

A plumbing system must be kept healthy and running in order to avoid blocked drains. One of the best ways to prevent drain blockages is to use drain screens or drain stoppers on top of your plugholes. These will catch food, hair and other contaminants that can damage your drains and cause serious blockages before they can enter your drains.

In fact, it’s crucial to properly dispose of your waste if you want to keep your indoor drains safe. Always be mindful of what you are flushing down your toilet and into your drains. Therefore, it’s best to avoid flushing non-biodegradable items as well as FOGs which will help to ensure your system runs freely.

Regular cleaning is still one of the greatest strategies to prevent blocked drains in addition to the aforementioned safety measures. The most ideal treatments are those that are natural, such as baking powder and vinegar, because they won’t induce corrosion like some popular commercial solutions. To perform routine cleaning and maintenance, you can trust our drain unblocking services which include professional drain cleaning and drain jetting.

However, for drains that are located outside, other factors and elements are the root cause of many blockages. Make sure to observe any trees or plants that are close to your pipes since if they are damaged or obstructed, they may go unnoticed. Anytime you have a feeling that something could be off, call us right away for commercial and domestic drain unblocking to prevent a minor problem from developing into a major one.

What causes a blocked drain?

Without proper care and maintenance, drains both inside and outside can easily become blocked. Fortunately, the most prevalent reasons are also simple to avoid and control with help of our experts.

Hair is one of the most frequent obstructions in bathroom drains. It is simple to prevent this by utilising a hair catcher. Similar to guarding the plug holes in your kitchen sink, you may stop food scraps from going down your drains and clogging your pipes by doing the same. These items are the most common causes of blockages we find during our domestic drain unblocking services.

In addition, flushing non-flushable items, such as sanitary towels, wet wipes and nappies can cause toilets to clog up and begin to overflow. It is vitally important that you avoid flushing these items down your toilet.

Another common cause of blocked drains is FOGs (fats, oils and greases) being poured down kitchen sinks. These can cause serious issues with drainage systems, therefore it’s crucial to keep in mind that used oil should never be poured down the drain.

Unfortunately, some elements, such as ageing, wear and weather conditions, as well as improper installation are more difficult to manage. The need to seek professional support for these blocked drains cannot be stressed enough. If you believe that your pipes have moved because of soil movement or that they have started to corrode over time, make sure to contact our team here at Cotswold Drainage.
