- Managing flows

- Liner design

- Robotic cutting

- Sewer cleaning

- Sealing and manhole coatings

- CCTV

- Blockage clearances

- Full length lining and patching on all gravity sewers, including under railways

Julian Powell, Managing Director of Drainforce Limited, commented:



“I am absolutely delighted that Welsh Water have once again chosen Drainforce to deliver sewer services on their underground sewer pipes, the majority of which have been in the ground for many years. This reappointment is a direct result of the excellent performance, innovation, and commitment our teams have demonstrated on the previous framework. It reflects the trust Welsh Water has in our ability to deliver safely, efficiently, and to the highest standard. We are looking forward to continuing and building further on our excellent relationship”
