Drain repairs in London bring their own challenges. Gardens can be hard to reach, shared drains are common, and clay pipes are old. Because of this, we favour no-dig pipe relining, which keeps disruption to gardens and paving low. Where digging cannot be avoided, we plan the work and the reinstatement with you.
We start with a CCTV inspection of the drains at your Islington property. Because the camera shows cracks, collapsed sections, displaced joints and roots, we can map each defect.
We explain the repair methods in plain terms. No-dig relining suits many pipes, while patch repairs suit small cracks. Severe collapses may need excavation.
For many drains, we fit a resin liner that sets inside the old pipe. It forms a smooth new bore that resists roots. Since it needs no trench, the surface stays intact.
After the repair, a second CCTV inspection confirms that the work is complete, because we check our own work.
We start with a CCTV survey to find and assess every defect. For many homes, no-dig CIPP relining is the right fix. A resin liner goes into the old pipe and cures into a smooth new bore, so no trench is needed. Collapsed sections may still need targeted digging.
Local tip: Relining suits built-up areas well. Digging through gardens, patios or pavements costs time and money, and it can need permits. A lined pipe also seals out roots, so the repair lasts.
In many cases, yes. No-dig CIPP relining places a resin-coated liner inside the damaged pipe, and it cures to form a new pipe within the old one. As a result, your garden and driveway stay largely undisturbed.
No-dig relining is usually quicker than digging, while excavation repairs take longer. The time also depends on how bad the damage is and on ground conditions in Islington. We explain the likely timeframe before work begins.
