Drain Repairs & Relining in Ludlow
No-dig drain relining and targeted excavation repairs for cracked, displaced and root-damaged drains, always preceded by a proper survey. Serving Ludlow and the surrounding villages, including Bromfield, Caynham, Ashford Carbonel, Clee Hill.
Drains fail slowly and then suddenly. A hairline crack lets in roots, a joint settles a few millimetres, and a line that worked for decades starts blocking every winter. The fix does not have to mean digging a trench through your garden or drive.
Outside Ludlow itself, off-mains is simply how south Shropshire works. The Corvedale, the Clee slopes and the Teme valley are dotted with properties on private systems, many of them older installations that predate modern standards, and a good number still arranged in ways the 2020 rules no longer allow.
Where the pipe is structurally sound enough, we repair drains from the inside by relining: a resin-impregnated liner is inserted into the pipe and cured in place, creating a new, jointless pipe within the old one. Localised damage can often be fixed with a patch liner over just the defective section. No-dig repairs mean no ruined lawns, no broken driveways, and usually a single day of work.
Buying or selling around Ludlow
Ludlow’s pull brings steady demand for period property across SY8, from town houses to hill farms. Rural sales here almost always raise drainage questions, and we do a steady trade in pre-purchase inspections and the upgrades that follow them.
Access and practicalities around Ludlow
The lanes here are proper south Shropshire lanes: high-banked, single-track and steep on the hill climbs. Clee Hill properties add altitude and exposure, and in winter access planning is part of the job. We know which routes a tanker can take and which it cannot.

Drain Repairs & Relining: common questions
How long does relining last?
A properly installed cured-in-place liner is a structural repair with a design life of decades, comparable to new pipework.
Will you need to dig up my drive?
Usually not. Liners are installed through existing access points such as manholes and rodding eyes. Excavation is reserved for collapsed or badly deformed sections that a liner cannot fix.
How disruptive is the work?
Most domestic relining jobs are completed in a day, and you can normally use your drains again the same evening once the liner has cured.
