Drain Repairs in Durham in County Durham, Tees Valley & Tyne & Wear

A simple blockage usually happens because of something stuck in the pipe, like fat or wet wipes. However, if your drains keep blocking up every few weeks, or if you notice things like cracks in your walls, nasty smells, or soggy patches of ground, it is likely a structural issue. We use our camera equipment to check the condition of the pipe. If we see a crack or a break, we will talk you through the best repair options to stop the problem coming back.

Drain relining is essentially creating a new pipe inside your old one. We pull a flexible liner through the damaged section which then hardens to create a tough, waterproof seal. It is usually the better option because it involves much less disruption to your home. There is no need to dig big trenches, it is finished much quicker, and the new lining is incredibly durable. We always try to offer this no-dig drain repair first whenever the pipe is structurally sound enough to take the liner.

The cost really depends on what has gone wrong and where the pipe is located. A small patch repair or a simple relining job will cost a lot less than a full excavation for a collapsed drain that sits deep underground. Because we don't charge a call-out fee and we believe in transparent pricing, we provide a clear quote after we have seen the problem. We aim to keep our prices fair and competitive for our local North East customers.

Yes, tree roots are one of the most common causes of cracked pipes we see in Durham. Roots are naturally drawn to the moisture inside your drains. They find tiny gaps in the pipe joints and grow inside, eventually causing massive blockages or even splitting the pipe apart. We can use high-pressure water jetting to clear the roots and then apply a structural pipe lining to seal the entry point so the roots can't get back in.

We certainly do. Drainage problems don't always happen during office hours. If you have a serious leak or a drain that is flooding your property, our 24/7 emergency service is ready to help. We get to you as quickly as possible to stabilise the situation and start the repairs. Because we are based in Coxhoe, we can reach most parts of Durham, Sunderland, and Stockton very quickly.
