I was wondering if anybody has had any experiences with relining pipes /sewer pipes please? Did it work and have you had any problems with it? How long ago did you get it done?
We've bought a victorian terrace in north London and the CCTV survey of the sewer pipes showed hair line crakes in some of the victorian clay pipes. As we have a problem with a some movement in a nearby wall and as all pipes are of the same age, we decided to get all pipes relined. This unfortunately means we are immediately talking serious money.
I've got quotes from various companies, but neither of them is particularly convincing. The prices are varying by approx. 2K. The warranty they give varies from 5 to 15 years. The problem I have is, that no company is clearly saying which liner they are going to use, so that I could read up about this particular manufacturer online. Or the company has only be in business for 2 years, so my 10 year warranty may not mean much if they won’t be around this long.
… There are lots of things that need doing around the house and the pipes will basically eat our whole renovation budget, so I would love to make sure I’m getting this right and I won't need to look at the pipes for the next 10 years again...
Any experiences are truly appreciated.
