Drain re-lining is a no-dig method of repairing damaged underground pipes.
Using flexible resin-soaked liners or targeted patch repairs, we can restore the structure of your pipework without excavation.
It’s clean, quick and long-lasting.
Many companies avoid structural patch repairs — we specialise in them.
Whether it’s a tight access point, multiple junctions, or a tricky location (under extensions, shared runs, etc), our experienced team handles the jobs others walk away from.
Our engineers are trained in pipe structure, flow dynamics, and material compatibility — so every liner is cut, mixed and fitted precisely.
Told by two other firms that it couldn’t be repaired — Roman Rod sorted it in one visit with no digging. Brilliant service.
We identify cracks, scale, root intrusion, or joint failure.
We use mechanical equipment (cutters, chains, jets) to clean and remove debris or roots.
Using epoxy resin and fibre matting, we install either full-length liners or targeted patches.
We re-survey the pipe and provide video confirmation of the new lining in place.
All liners meet WRC standards and are built to last decades.

| Cost | From £475+VAT per patch | Often £2,000–£6,000+ |
| Warranty | WRc-compliant, 10–20+ year life | Varies |
| Access | Internal repair, minimal space | Heavy equipment and clearance needed |
The pipe under our extension was cracked and leaking badly. Roman Rod diagnosed it, cut out the scale, installed a patch and re-scoped the line. All without digging. They even sent us a video showing the repair.

Roman Rod provides professional no-dig drain repair services across Bath, Chippenham, Frome, and the wider Somerset and Wiltshire area.
Using advanced CCTV drain surveys, we locate the exact cause of a drain problem without having to resort to unnecessary excavation. Many issues — from cracks to root ingress — can be repaired using modern structural lining methods that avoid the disruptive digging up your property.
Wherever possible, our engineers will recommend these faster, tidier, and more cost-effective solutions to restore your drains to full working order.
When drains are cracked, weakened by root damage, or suffering from age-related wear, Roman Rod uses structural drain lining to create a strong new pipe within the existing one.
How it works:
This method repairs cracks, holes, and damage without the need for excavation. In most cases, the repair can be completed in a single day, with results lasting 20–50 years.
Not every damaged drain requires a full re-lining. For localised faults, Roman Rod can carry out patch repairs — a cost-effective alternative to full excavation.
Benefits of patch repairs:
By choosing drain patch repairs where appropriate, homeowners and businesses can save thousands in excavation and reinstatement costs — while still securing a long-lasting solution.
