4 Simple Things to Consider When Comparing Pipe Relining Quotes
We’re committed to increasing the profile and education of our profession, and well aware that some of the subtleties and finer details can be difficult to grasp. If you’ve never heard of relining before your trusted plumber tells you that it is the best or only way around your troublesome drains, how are you supposed to decide which quote and provider is the right choice? How do you know if you’re comparing apples with apples, or a Valiant Charger with a Porsche?
There are a number of factors to consider, depending on the job and provider. We’ve listed the big ones below, so you’re informed when you bite the bullet and commit to a long-term relining solution.
What reline material/product is being used?
We use only the highest quality epoxy resin, make sure your quote includes the same!
Is relining the core business of the provider, or just an add-on? The latter will often incur significant overheads, compared to a professional relining outfit.
Does your quote offer a guarantee? All quality relining products are insured by the manufacturer, so if this isn’t included, it should be! We offer a 25-year guarantee with all our installations.
Is the quote more or less than a traditional ‘dig and replace’ solution? Relining is designed to be a cheaper, more sustainable solution, so bear this in mind.
Pipe Relining
How does pipe relining work?
Think of relining as feeding an inner tube into the current pipe, then hardening and sealing that tube until it’s stronger than any clay, terracotta, or plastic pipe.
Rather than excavating and replacing the damaged pipe, causing mess and disruption to your property (and your bank balance) – we reline from the surface.
Using the best available Watermark accredited tech and using ultra-strong, impenetrable EPOXY resin, we cause a minimal fuss, often maintaining services and completing most projects within a single day.
The process
- Investigate – Using CC.TV technology, we investigate the problems and provide you with an itemised quote for the work that needs to be done, taking the time to explain where the budget is being spent and why arming you with the information you need.
- Prepare – We take time to prepare above and below ground to ensure we cause minimal disturbance by establishing safe work zones and diverting any plumbing systems where possible, avoiding service disruptions.
- Reline – Only then do we cure and install our impenetrable EPOXY resin using state-of-the-art relining techniques that allow us to accurately pinpoint the damaged section of the pipe, drain or sewer and navigate any bends or junctions.
We create and install a guaranteed 50-year solution with our superior relining products & materials coming with a life expectancy of 50 years and up.

The Advantages of Pipe Relining for Efficient Pipe Repairs
Pipe relining is a modern, trenchless method for repairing damaged or leaking pipes without the need for invasive excavation. This innovative technique involves inserting a flexible, resin-coated liner into the affected pipe, which is then inflated and cured to form a new, durable pipe within the existing one. The result is a seamless and corrosion-resistant pipe that not only restores the structural integrity of your plumbing system but also improves flow efficiency. By choosing Pipe Relining, you can extend the lifespan of your pipes, prevent future damage, and minimise the risk of costly repairs down the line.
Embracing Pipe Relining as a preferred solution for pipe repairs offers several benefits, including reduced costs, minimal disruptions, and enhanced environmental sustainability. Since there’s no need for large-scale digging, Pipe Relining helps you save up to 50% in repair expenses compared to traditional methods, while also reducing the time and resources required for the job. Furthermore, the trenchless nature of Pipe Relining significantly lessens the impact on your property and the surrounding environment, preserving your garden, landscaping, and infrastructure. By opting for Pipe Relining, you’re investing in a long-lasting, efficient, and eco-friendly solution for maintaining the health of your plumbing system.
