What We Repair
Pitch fibre repairs in Bournemouth cover a specific and common problem in older properties. Pitch fibre pipework, widely installed before the 1980s, is prone to blistering and deformation over time, which restricts flow and eventually causes blockages or collapse. Our engineers identify this pipe type quickly during a CCTV survey and recommend the right repair approach, whether that’s relining, patching, or replacement where the pipe has deformed beyond repair.
We carry out pitch fibre repairs in Bournemouth using the same no-dig trenchless technology as our standard relining service, avoiding unnecessary excavation wherever possible. Every job starts with a full diagnosis so you understand exactly what’s happening underground before any work begins. If you own a property built before 1980, there’s a good chance your pipework is pitch fibre, and getting it checked early can prevent a much larger repair down the line.
Trusted Experience
Pitch fibre pipework needs a different approach to modern plastic drainage, and not every drainage company has the specific experience to diagnose it correctly. With 20 years in the trade, our engineers have handled pitch fibre repairs in Bournemouth across hundreds of older properties, and know exactly what blistering, deformation, and joint failure look like on camera.
We’re NADC accredited and use structural resin lining to restore pitch fibre pipework wherever the pipe condition allows it, saving you the cost and disruption of a full dig-up and replacement. Every repair comes with a 15-year no-reblock guarantee, and we always show you the CCTV footage so you can see the problem for yourself before agreeing to any work. Fixed pricing, confirmed upfront, means no surprises once the job is underway. Homeowners across Bournemouth with older properties come back to us time and again, knowing we understand pitch fibre pipework in a way many drainage companies simply don’t.

We had a major drain blockage backing up into the house on a weekend, and Southern Drainage and Water Limited responded incredibly fast. The engineer arrived quickly, diagnosed the problem immediately, and had everything cleared and cleaned up in no time. Highly recommend their emergency service!

Professional, friendly and knowledgeable! We are extremely happy with the service and work we received for our recent blocked drain and replacement of the cracked gulley. Whilst there were some difficulties scheduling work due to the weather, I was impressed with the level of comms from Ryan regarding changes in plans.

Common Questions
Properties built before 1980 commonly have pitch fibre pipework. A CCTV drain survey confirms the pipe material and its current condition quickly and accurately.
In most cases yes, but badly deformed or collapsed sections may need replacement instead. We’ll confirm the right approach after inspection.
Pitch fibre softens and deforms over time, particularly under the weight of soil or nearby tree roots, leading to blistering and reduced flow.
Yes, pitch fibre repairs in Bournemouth are covered by our standard 15-year no-reblock guarantee, subject to annual maintenance jetting.
Usually not. We use no-dig trenchless technology wherever the pipe condition allows, avoiding excavation in the vast majority of cases.
