How do I know if my drain is in need of repair?
If you suspect that you potentially have a blocked or damaged drain that needs professional drain repair, you should look out for the following telltale signs:
- Your sink, shower, bath and toilet may be draining slower than usual, or not at all
- There is an unusual foul odour lingering in your home
- You can hear gurgling sounds from your drains, plug holes, toilet flushes and pipes
All of these signs may indicate drainage problems, ranging from a blocked drain to cracked pipes, or even a fully collapsed drain. To learn more about how to tell when you have a problem, take a look at our guide ’How to tell if you have blocked drains’.
No-Dig Expert Drain Relining
Traditional repair involves digging up large sections of pipework, which may cause considerable disruption. Here at Lanes, we use no-dig drain relining techniques as our default method for the repair and renovation of domestic and commercial drains.
Our no-dig methods fix cracked or damaged pipes without breaking ground, addressing immediate issues while reducing future maintenance costs. The process involves bonding a drain lining to the inner surface of the damaged pipe, effectively creating a new pipe. This technique works for pipes of various sizes, from 100mm to 1,500mm culverts. For more details, read our article ‘A guide to drainage installations’.

FAQs
Our drain pipe lining services are priced competitively, with each job scoped according to factors such as the condition and type of pipe, the accessibility of the site, and so on. In each case, we ensure the cost is tailored to your budget and practical needs.
We test our lining materials for a minimum of 1,000 hours to ensure that they meet the WRc (Water Research Centre) 50-year design life criteria. However, since we also incorporate a x2 safety factor, the life expectancy of our liners is doubled to around 100 years. For further assurance, our installations are independently verified by Exova to ensure the very highest standard of quality and performance.
