Drain Patch Repair & Root Removal Services Halifax, Huddersfield, Bradford and Greater Manchester
At Vantage Drain Services, we provide high-quality drain patch repairs and specialist root removal to permanently fix damaged, cracked, or leaking drainage pipes. Our methods are clean, efficient and fully compliant with WRC (Water Research Council) standards, ensuring long-lasting results without the need for disruptive excavation.
What is a Drain Patch Repair?
Patch repair is a modern trenchless technique used to fix localised defects inside a drainage pipe. Instead of digging up your garden, driveway, or pathway, we insert a resin-soaked glass fibre patch into the damaged section and bond it to the inside of the pipe.
It permanently repairs issues such as:
- Cracks and fractures
- Leaking joints
- Ingress of soil or debris
- Displaced pipe sections
- Water ingress into properties
- Root-damaged areas (after roots are removed)
Patch repair is suitable for 4" (100mm) and 6" (150mm) drainage pipes and can be used on both domestic and commercial systems.
Our Drain Patch Repair Pricing
We keep our pricing clear, simple and transparent.
Materials
- 4" patch repair: £130 per metre
- 6" patch repair: £260 per metre
- Radius patch (for bends/offsets): £180 per 0.5m section
Labour
Patch repairs require a trained 2-man team and specialist equipment. Each repair includes:
- High-pressure jetting to clean the pipe
- CCTV inspection before the repair
- Resin & glass fibre preparation
- Packer setup, installation and calibration
- Controlled curing time
- Final CCTV inspection to certify the repair
Labour rate: £216 per hour
Minimum charge: 2 hours (£432)
This ensures every repair is carried out to the highest standard and fully documented.
Root Removal Service (Up to 20 Metres)
Roots are one of the most common causes of cracked, blocked and leaking drains. They grow through joints in the pipe and can completely obstruct the flow over time.
Before a patch repair can be installed, all roots must be removed safely.
Our specialist root removal service includes:
- Advanced cutting heads designed for root ingress
- High-pressure jetting to flush out debris
- CCTV monitoring throughout the process
- Up to 20 metres of pipework cleared
- Pipe left fully prepared for patch repair
Fixed price: £1,728 (no VAT)
This is a full-day operation and ensures the pipe is restored to a condition where repairs can be guaranteed.
Do We Work in Confined Spaces?
Yes — we are trained and equipped to work in confined-space environments, such as deep chambers or restricted access areas.
