drain relining
Mouland Plumbing & Drainage Services use the latest technology in drain relining systems. Having to dig up drains and relay them, can be a time consuming and expensive business. Wherever suitable we will use re-lining techniques to save you time, money and the inconvenience of having an excavation at your property. Drain relining can be used to rectify such problems as in-growing tree roots and damage to the pipework. A resin saturated lining tube is installed in a pipeline by winching or inversion and once in place the resin is usually heated to induce a chemical catalyst or hardener set off the curing process. The curing process is usually by hot water, steam or UV light for hot cured methods while ambient cured technologies can be used for smaller diameter renovation projects e.g. house drain connections to sewers. When fully curred, the drain will be sleeved with a countinues length of liner with no joints, therefore creating a new pipe inside an old one. We also carry out patch lining which allows a small section of drain to be repiared with minimal disruption and great accuracy. Patch lining is ideal for repairing displaced joints and cracked pipework, restoring it to perfect working order. This method is also used for preventing roots from re enetering the pipework once removed. We can also undertake Specialist Pitch fibre re-rounding to return the deformed pipework back to its original shape.
