Drain Repairs in Swindon
A broken drain does not fix itself and it rarely stays the same size. We repair what is damaged, leave the sound pipework alone, and guarantee the work for up to 20 years.
What you are actually dealing with
Drains fail for boring reasons. Clay pipe laid in the 1930s shifting as the ground moves. A joint that opens up half a centimetre and lets roots in. A section crushed years ago when somebody drove a mini-digger over a shallow run. Once the pipe is open, silt and debris collect at the damage and you get blockages that keep returning however many times the line is cleared.
Our first question on every repair in Swindon is whether we can avoid digging. Patch lining, full relining and robotic cutting fix a lot of defects from inside the pipe, in a day, without a trench across your driveway. That is cheaper for you and far less disruptive.
When excavation is genuinely the only answer — a properly collapsed run, a section that has dropped out of line, a pipe crushed flat — we say so, quote it clearly, dig it, replace it and reinstate the surface. You get a guarantee of up to 20 years on the repair and camera footage of the finished pipe.

Method
How we handle drain repairs
Diagnose
Camera survey and a surface trace so we know exactly what is broken, how long the damaged section is and how deep it sits.
Quote
A written price with the no-dig option and the excavation option side by side where both are viable, so you can see what you are choosing between.
Repair
Lining, patching or excavation as agreed. Access protected, spoil contained, the site left safe at the end of every day.
Sign off
Final camera run through the repaired line, footage sent to you, guarantee paperwork issued.
Questions
Drain Repairs — the usual questions
Straight answers, including the ones that mean we do not get the job.
Often not. Most defects we see can be lined or patched from inside the pipe. We only recommend excavation where the pipe has lost its shape badly enough that nothing can be installed through it.
