Yes, pipe relining is often an ideal solution for pipes affected by root intrusion. Before relining, our team uses high-pressure water jetting and root cutting to clear the pipe of any roots and debris. Once the pipe is clean, the new liner creates a smooth internal surface that makes it much harder for roots to find their way back in, helping to prevent the same problem from recurring.

Pipe relining can be used on a wide range of pipe materials and sizes, including ageing cast iron, clay and PVC pipes commonly found in older homes. That said, every property is different, so our plumbers always begin with a CCTV drain camera inspection to assess the condition of your existing pipe and confirm whether relining is the right approach, or whether another repair method would serve you better.

One of the main benefits of pipe relining is how little disruption it causes compared to traditional dig-and-replace repairs. Because the process works from inside the existing pipe, there's generally no need to tear up lawns, gardens, driveways or flooring to access the damaged section. Our team also takes care to leave your property clean and tidy once the job is finished.

The best way to determine this is through a proper inspection. Our plumbers use CCTV drain cameras and other diagnostic tools to assess the extent of the damage, the condition of the surrounding pipe, and whether the structure can support a relining solution. In many cases, relining is a suitable and cost-effective alternative to replacement, though severely collapsed or misaligned pipes may need a different approach.

While it's not always necessary for you to be on-site for the entire job, we do recommend being available at the start so our team can walk you through the plan and answer any questions about your specific plumbing system. Many home and business owners prefer to step away once the work is underway, confident that our experienced team has everything under control.
