🚧 Pitch Fibre Pipe Replacement in Dorset 🚧
Our team at West Country Drainage Services have recently been over in Dorset carrying out essential pitch fibre pipe replacement works.
Pitch fibre pipes were widely used in drainage systems between the 1950s and 1970s. While they were a cost effective solution at the time, they are now known to deform, blister and collapse over time due to moisture and pressure in the ground. This can lead to recurring blockages, restricted flow, and in severe cases, complete pipe failure.
During this project our engineers identified sections of deteriorated pitch fibre drainage and replaced them with modern, durable pipework, restoring the system to full working condition and preventing future drainage issues.
Replacing failing pitch fibre pipes is crucial because it:
✔ Prevents repeated blockages and drainage backups
✔ Protects properties from potential flooding or damage
✔ Improves the long term reliability of the drainage system
✔ Saves money on repeated reactive repairs
At West Country Drainage Services, we specialise in diagnosing and resolving drainage issues before they become major problems.
If you’re experiencing recurring drainage problems or suspect ageing pipework, our team is here to help.
