LDL service teams are certified and trained on the Schwalm Robotic system to clean and remove debris from clogged drain lines. Equipped with the powerful and precise Schwalm robot, and its accessories that include cutting and grinding heads, chisels, and the amazing AccuPower^® ultra-high pressure jetting system, pipes are quickly and efficiently cleaned and prepped for relining and repair.

A persistent problem throughout the UK are aging and deteriorated manholes, and other sewer infrastructure. When this happens, infiltration becomes a problem and further taxes the entire system. LDL provides manhole rehabilitation services using WRc-approved GeoKrete^® geopolymer to fully restore manholes to their original operating condition, without the need for digging.

If only a small section of pipe is damaged, LDL service and installation crews are fully trained and equipped with pipe repair kits designed to patch or line short sections of the effected pipe. These point repairs work on the same principle as the total pipe CIPP lining system. The biggest difference is that a point repair sleeve can be “pushed” to the damaged section of the pipe. Once the sleeve is in place over the damaged section of the drain, it is inflated to a set pressure while the sleeve cures in place.

Suitable applications:

• Cracked or fractured pipes
• Pipes leaking at specific points or connections
• Bridging and sealing open or displaced joints
• Transitions in pipe diameter
• Pipe repairs can be carried out in varying sizes ranging from 100 –1200mm.
