Premier Drainage Services Limited have serviced quite a few drain and sewr systems in the Buntingford area over the years. Our customers here call us back time and time again when their drains become blocked because they know we do a good job at a fair price. It really doesn’t take much to block a drain, the everyday build up of debris can cause a major problem if the pipework is cracked, sunken or faulty in some other way. It is even worse when fat or grease has been poured down the sink and then solidified inside the underground pipe. A lot of people believe that if they pour fat down the sink and wash it away with boiling water then there won’t be a problem. Sadly when the fat reaches the sewer or lower drainage pipework, the hot water becomes too cool to keep the fat flowing and it builds up in the pipe causing a blockage. So if you live in Buntingford and need your drains unblocking or repairing, callPremier Drainage Services Limited today.

Drain lining repairs in Buntingford, Hertfordshire

Drain lining and drain repairs really are the bread and butter of our business here at Premier Drainage Services Limited. Because we spend so much of our time conducting inspections and repairs at both commercial and domestic properties in Buntingford, Hertfordshire, we have become very good at diagnosing and fixing a whole mannner of drainage issues.

There are many things that can affect the efficiency of a drainage system and not all are immediately obvious to the untrained eye. Soggy areas and standing water, as well as foul smelling areas on your property are a dead giveaway that there is a problem with the drainage, however, some signs are often missed and only picked up by a professional.

Once the cause has been identified, the damage needs to be fixed and this is where calling a company such as us pays dividends. We will discover and repair all manner of issues including cracks and open joints. Root damage, water infiltration, movement of the ground and traffic can all be the initial cause of the problem, it may be one or a combination of the above that is causing your drainage system to malfunction.

Many years ago, the only way to fix a broken drain was to excavate the entire area, find what is damaged and repair it. Clearly this would entail a great deal of disruption, damage and expense. This is not the case anymore thanks to modern technologies that we employ.

Occasionally, depending on the severity of the damage to the drainage system, excavation is still necessary in some cases. However, this is the exception rather than the rule and we more often than not employ a range of no dig repair techniques to repair structural and non structural defects in drainage systems. This is a real advantage to you and your property as it provides you with a quick, efficient and very cost effective solution to your drainage issues.

Patch lining repairs in Buntingford, Hertfordshire

Frequently caused by root incursion or sometimes ageing pipework, water ingress through open joints or cracks can be extremely damaging to any drainage system. Eventually it can cause a complete failure of the drain by washing away the supporting soil surrounding the drain itself. Should a situation like this be left to get worse, the drain will eventually collapse leaving us with no alternative but to excavate the area. By acting quickly you will save time, money and a massive amount of clearing up.

With our trenchless, no dig methods of repair we can seal the area of water ingress using a patch lining to ensure we maintain as much support around the drain and reduce the risk of issues further down the line. We can also repair small cracks or holes in pipes using the patch liners where required.

Structural repairs and drain lining

Should we discover a more extensive level of damage once we have investigated with our CCTV apparatus, the pipe can either be replaced using traditional excavation methods or repaired using advanced soft lining techniques. This is where we fill the liner with polyester resin and insert in to the drain. Once in place the liner is inverted using water or air pressure and left to cure. In the vast majority of cases we will be able to install and cure the drain in just one day, however curing time can be dictated by the type of resin we use and the ambient temperature at the time the repair is being carried out.

All the repairs we carry out in Buntingford, Hertfordshire will be cost effective and with minimal disruption to you and your property whenever possible. Our repairs are sound and robust and will be resilient to further ground movement and our patch liners form a physical barrier to water ingress and further root penetration.

We will do our very best not to leave you without any essential services while we complete our work and we leave your property as tidy as we possibly can.
