Drain Excavation & Re-Lay for Dragons Green (RH13) properties

Older homes in Dragons Green were plumbed with salt-glazed clay in short sections with mortar joints — the classic entry point for roots. Newer estates use continuous UPVC, which blocks less from roots and more from wipes, fat and misuse. We factor that into every drain excavation & re-lay job we take in RH13.

Most common drainage problems in Dragons Green

  • Manhole overflow and backing-up during heavy use
  • Collapsed or dropped sections in older clay pipework
  • Deformed pitch fibre pipes in 1950s–70s housing
