Establish the defect before choosing repair
A drain repair proposal should identify the section needing attention and the evidence behind it. Share symptoms, clearance history and any footage. A recurring blockage alone does not confirm structural damage; further inspection may be needed if location or condition is unclear.
Consider access as well as pipe condition
Some defects suit an internal solution, while severe damage may require excavation or replacement. Explain nearby structures, surface finishes and working-space constraints. Shared areas need arrangements with whoever can authorise access and disturbance before the scope is agreed.
Check the proposal from start to finish
Clarify preparation, repair extent and completion checks. Where excavation is proposed, discuss material removal and surface reinstatement. Agree approval for unexpected additional work. SouthFlow covers Lee-on-the-Solent from Petersfield and carries £5 million public liability insurance.
Your Lee-on-the-Solent 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.
