Drain relining is a cost-effective, non-invasive method of repairing damaged or deteriorating drains without the need for excavation. Using trenchless technology, a resin-impregnated liner is inserted into the existing pipe and cured in place, forming a durable new lining that restores structural integrity and prevents leaks or blockages.
Southern Drainage Solutions provides professional drain relining across the south for both domestic and commercial customers. Our engineers use industry-approved techniques to extend the lifespan of drainage systems while minimising disruption to properties.
What Does Drain Relining Involve?
Drain relining is suitable for drains that are cracked, leaking, or weakened but not completely collapsed. The process begins with a CCTV survey to assess the condition of the pipe and determine whether relining is possible. A flexible liner coated with resin is then inserted into the drain and inflated. Once hardened, this creates a strong, smooth new pipe within the existing structure.
This method avoids the need for excavation, saving time, money, and disruption compared to traditional repairs. Relined drains can last decades, providing long-term protection against leaks, infiltration, and structural failure.
Main benefits include:
- No-dig repair avoids disruption to gardens, driveways, and flooring
- Cost-effective alternative to full drain replacement
- Seals cracks and leaks, preventing water escape and root intrusion
- Extends system lifespan with a durable new lining
- Provides a smooth internal surface to improve flow efficiency

Frequently Asked Questions
What is drain relining?
Drain relining is a trenchless method of repairing damaged or deteriorating drains. Instead of excavating and replacing the pipe, a resin-coated liner is inserted into the existing drain and cured in place, creating a new pipe wall inside the old one. This process restores the structural integrity of the drain, seals cracks and leaks, and provides a smooth internal surface to improve flow. It is widely used because it reduces disruption, shortens repair times, and is suitable for both residential and commercial drainage systems.
How long does drain relining last?
When carried out professionally, drain relining is a long-term repair solution. Most liners are designed to last for several decades, with many manufacturers estimating lifespans of 50 years or more under normal conditions. Southern Drainage Solutions provides a guarantee on all relining works, ensuring property owners can rely on the repair for the future. Longevity also depends on factors such as the original condition of the pipework, correct installation, and whether the system is maintained properly.
When is drain relining suitable?
Drain relining is best suited for pipes that are cracked, leaking, or weakened but still structurally intact. It can resolve problems such as root ingress, water infiltration, displaced joints, and general deterioration. However, if a pipe has fully collapsed or is severely misaligned, excavation and replacement may be the only option. A CCTV drain survey is usually carried out first to confirm whether relining is viable and to identify the best method of repair.
How much does drain relining cost?
Costs vary depending on the length, diameter, and condition of the pipework. Domestic repairs are often priced on a fixed-rate basis, while larger commercial systems may require tailored quotations. Relining is usually more cost-effective than excavation because it avoids digging up driveways, gardens, or floors, which reduces both labour and reinstatement costs. Southern Drainage Solutions provides clear, fixed-price quotes before any work begins, so customers know exactly what to expect.
Does drain relining require digging?
No. Drain relining is a no-dig method, meaning engineers usually access the pipework through existing manholes or access chambers. This makes the process far less disruptive compared to traditional excavation. In most cases, the only preparation required is cleaning the pipe using high-pressure jetting to ensure the liner can bond properly. This approach saves time, reduces cost, and avoids unnecessary disturbance to the property.
Can drain relining be used in commercial properties?
Yes. Drain relining is widely used in commercial, industrial, and public sector sites where downtime and disruption need to be kept to a minimum. It provides a quick and reliable repair method that restores system function without the need to close large areas of a site for excavation. Commercial relining is especially useful in car parks, busy access routes, and internal drainage systems beneath buildings.
What are the benefits of drain relining compared to replacement?
The main benefit of drain relining is that it avoids excavation, which means faster completion, lower costs, and less disruption to surfaces such as driveways, patios, or landscaping. Relining also provides a strong, watertight seal that prevents further leaks or root ingress. The smooth new lining improves water flow and reduces the risk of future blockages. In many cases, relining is just as durable as full replacement but far more efficient.
