Drain Lining in Brighton

Cracked or fractured drains are common in homes across Peacehaven, Newhaven, and Lancing, especially where ground movement or ageing pipe materials are factors. These faults allow water to escape and tree roots to enter.

Drain lining seals over cracks and prevents further deterioration. Acting early can stop minor cracks developing into more serious leaks or collapses, helping to maintain the value and safety of your property.

We start with a detailed CCTV inspection to assess the inside of your drains and identify the best approach. Any obstructions, such as debris or roots, are cleared using high-pressure water jetting before relining begins.

A flexible liner saturated with resin is inserted into the drain and set in place using air or water pressure. The resin cures to form a tough new pipe within the old one, restoring flow and structural integrity. Patch repairs are used for isolated issues, while full-length lining covers longer sections.

All drain lining and patch repairs carried out by Brighton Drains come with a written 10 year guarantee for your peace of mind. This covers the materials and workmanship involved in the repair.

If you experience any issues with your relined drain within the guarantee period, just call us on 01273 567 831 and we’ll arrange for an inspection and any necessary corrections.

Drain lining is recommended when pipes show signs of leaks, slow draining, or repeated blockages, often found in older Brighton and East Sussex properties. It is used when pipe damage is localised, but the structure is generally intact.

If you notice foul smells, water backing up, or damp patches in gardens or under floors, a CCTV survey can confirm if lining is a practical solution. Properties in Hove, Lewes, and Worthing with clay or older plastic pipes often benefit from this approach.

Mature gardens in places like Rottingdean, Falmer, and Hassocks can lead to roots breaking into underground pipes searching for moisture. These intrusions can cause persistent blockages and damage within the pipework.

Brighton Drains uses CCTV surveys to confirm the extent of root ingress. After removing the roots using high-pressure water jetting, a patch lining or full CIPP liner is installed to seal the pipe and discourage future growth.

No-dig pipe relining avoids the disruption and cost of traditional excavation, making it ideal for properties with finished gardens, patios, or driveways in Hove, Portslade, or Littlehampton. Work is completed in less time and usually without heavy equipment.

This method restores structural strength and stops leaks, blockages, and root entry. The smooth new pipe surface also improves flow and is less likely to snag future debris.
