Use evidence to define the affected section

Symptoms alone do not identify a complete repair. Provide camera findings, previous clearance details and the history of the problem. Further investigation may be needed if the available information does not establish the location or condition clearly enough.

Assess the method against the site

Suitable defects may allow an internal repair; severe damage may need direct access or excavation. Describe the surrounding surfaces, nearby structures and working access. Shared or managed areas can require separate authorisation before work proceeds.

Review what the repair proposal includes

Clarify preparation, the repair section, method and included checks. For excavation, discuss material handling and reinstatement of affected surfaces. Ask how unexpected findings would be agreed. SouthFlow covers Fareham from Petersfield and carries £5 million public liability insurance.

Your Fareham service questions

How do you decide which repair is needed?

The repair should follow evidence of the defect, its location and the pipe’s condition. Share any survey findings or previous work. If the problem is not yet clear, further inspection may be needed first.

Can a drain be repaired without digging?

Some defects can be repaired from inside the pipe using a suitable internal repair method. Other damage needs excavation or replacement. The condition of the pipe and available access determine the options.

Does a recurring blockage mean the pipe is broken?

Not necessarily. Repeated blockages can have several causes. A CCTV inspection may help establish whether damage is involved before structural repairs are proposed.

What happens if excavation is needed?

The proposal should explain the affected section, access requirements and how disturbed surfaces will be reinstated. Ask what material removal and completion checks are included.

Will my insurance cover the repair?

Check directly with your insurer. Cover depends on your policy and the cause of the problem. Ask what evidence and authorisation they require before commissioning work as part of a claim.

What if further damage is discovered?

Agree how unexpected findings will be handled before work starts. Any change to the repair scope and price should be explained and authorised before additional work proceeds.

How much does the work cost?

We quote for the work your property needs. The price depends on the problem, access, preparation and attendance arrangements. When requesting a quote, ask what is included and whether VAT or additional investigation charges apply.
