The use of resin sleeves allows for the repair of sewage systems without breaking surfaces.
Damage to sewage or water supply systems is very common. The usual solution involves breaking the surface to access the pipe and fix the problem. However, it is not always possible to break in to repair the damage, as is the case, for example, with marble or period wood. What can be done in these situations? Fortunately, there is an alternative, a system that has revolutionized this sector.
As Víctor López, business development manager at Desatascos Henares, explains, “the way to rehabilitate broken pipes without construction work involves impregnating a resin sleeve, using an old pipe from the building as a mold. This way, we leave the interior new.”
The main advantage of this service, according to López, is the speed: “it is possible to rehabilitate a significant amount of pipe in one morning, all underground.” The effectiveness of repairing sewage systems without construction work has led to a high demand for these services, with a high level of customer satisfaction.
Pool leaks and plumbing issues
However, there are other types of damage that require more complex processes for their repair. At this time of year, detecting leaks in pools is a common issue. As Víctor López points out, “during preparations for the summer season, owners often realize that the water level has dropped and there is clearly a leak. In these cases, a team of professionals is needed to locate and repair the leak.”
Clogged drains are also very common. The alarm is usually raised when water overflows from the drains. At Desatascos Henares, the business development manager emphasizes, “to prevent reaching this point, we recommend paying attention to the main warning sign: the smell. When it smells bad, there is a problem, water does not flow well, and the next step is a blocked pipe and water coming out from the lowest point in the building.”
Not flushing wipes down the toilet or avoiding certain detergents are some of the measures recommended by this plumbing company in the Madrid and Guadalajara area to maintain sewage systems in optimal condition. “With a team of 80 professionals, we offer customers speed, quality, and a very affordable price, but also advisory and after-sale services where we advise on how to prevent problems and save on repairs,” López highlights.
Asbestos removal
Finally, the business development manager at Desatascos Henares mentions another common problem they encounter when repairing a pipe, which is asbestos. This harmful material requires a special protocol for its removal.
“We are one of the few companies in the Madrid region that has a generic work plan for replacing asbestos downspouts in accordance with the law. We follow all protocols, from protective equipment to decontamination cabins, and conduct environmental measurements once the work is completed,” López concludes.
