When is drain excavation necessary?

1. Your drains are badly damaged. If patch repairs, relining and jetting aren’t enough to repair the issue, we may need to get down to the pipework to repair or replace it.

2. Repairs needed over a large area. For those large-scale repairs such as replacing whole sections of pipe, we’ll need to excavate to access the drain

3. Structural work is required. Collapsed drains and structural alteration works will require drain excavation.

There are instances when excavating your underground pipework is the only viable way to repair a damaged or defective drainage system. So when may drain excavation be required?
