What is Drain Relining?

Drain relining is a modern method to repair damaged pipes without digging. It involves inserting a flexible liner into the existing pipe, inflating it to form a solid, durable new pipe. This solution restores your drainage system to full functionality.

Is Pipe Relining the Same as Drain Relining?

  • Pipe Relining: A general term used for repairing or replacing any type of pipe by inserting a liner inside the existing pipe. It’s used for both drainage pipes and other types of pipes (like water supply pipes) that are damaged or corroded.
  • Drain Relining: Specifically refers to the process of relining drainage pipes, which carry wastewater and fluids away from your property. It’s a type of pipe relining focused on the drainage system.

In summary, both terms describe the same process, but drain relining is used when referring specifically to drainage systems.

Blocked Drain Repairs vs Drain Relining: What’s the Difference?

While both blocked drain repairs and drain relining address drainage issues, they are distinct services. Here’s how they differ:

  • Blocked Drain Repairs: This involves clearing out blockages from your pipes, often using methods like high-pressure water jetting or mechanical rodding. However, blocked drain repairs only address the immediate issue, and the underlying problem (such as cracked or corroded pipes) may still exist.
  • Drain Relining: On the other hand, drain relining provides a more permanent solution. It not only fixes blockages but also strengthens and protects your pipes for the long term by lining the inside of the existing pipe. This makes it ideal for preventing future issues like tree root intrusion and corrosion.

At SEQ Blocked Drains, our team will assess your drainage system and advise you on the best solution. Whether it’s a quick fix with blocked drain repairs or a long-term solution with drain relining, we’ll provide the most cost-effective and efficient option based on your needs.

When Should You Consider Drain Relining?

You should consider drain relining if you experience any of the following issues:

  • Frequent Blockages: Repeated blockages in your drains, especially in older properties, are often signs of pipe damage or wear.
  • Slow Drainage: If water drains slowly, it may indicate blockages or cracks within the pipes, requiring immediate attention.
  • Bad Odours: Foul smells coming from your drains can be a sign of pipe damage, stagnant water, or tree root intrusion.
  • Water Damage: Leaks or damp areas in your yard or property can signal that your pipes have cracks or holes.
  • Old and Corroded Pipes: Older homes with outdated pipes may be prone to damage or corrosion, making drain relining the best solution.

How Drain Relining Works

The drain relining process is simple but effective, and it can be completed without causing a mess or damaging your property. Here’s how it works:

Inspection

We start by inspecting the condition of your drains using CCTV cameras. This allows us to pinpoint the exact location of the damage and assess the overall condition of the pipes.

 

Cleaning

The pipes are thoroughly cleaned using high-pressure water jets to remove any debris, grease, or blockages that could hinder the relining process.

Lining Installation

Once the pipes are clean, we insert a flexible epoxy resin liner into the damaged pipe. This liner is then inflated to mould it to the shape of the original pipe, creating a smooth and strong new lining.

Curing

The liner is left to cure, typically with hot water or UV light, which hardens the epoxy resin, forming a new pipe within the existing one.

Final Inspection

After curing, a final inspection is conducted using CCTV cameras to ensure the job has been done correctly, and the pipe is now free from any defects.
