Drain Relining (No-Dig Repairs)

Repair your drain from the inside, with no digging.

Drain relining fixes cracked, leaking and root-damaged pipes without digging them up. We insert a flexible liner into the old pipe, inflate it and let it set hard, leaving a smooth new pipe inside the old one. C&R Drainage relines domestic and commercial drains across Kent and the South East.

Digging out a damaged drain can mean lifting patios, driveways and gardens, with the mess and cost that brings. Relining avoids most of that. We work through existing manholes, so the job is usually done in a day with little disruption. The new liner seals joints and cracks, which also stops roots getting back in.

When relining is the right fix

Relining suits pipes with cracks, open joints, small displacements and root damage. It isn’t right for pipes that have fully collapsed, where a dig repair may be needed. We always carry out a CCTV survey first, so we can show you the damage and recommend the right repair.

Most domestic relines are done in a day, depending on the length of pipe.

No. We work through the manholes and you can stay at home.

Most can. Fully collapsed pipes may need a dig repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case.

We run a camera through the pipe when we finish so you can see the new liner.
