Clay drainage systems are strong and long lasting, but they’re not invulnerable. Tiny tree roots can enter loose clay plumbing joints, slowly breaking away the clay as they grow. Clay also has low tensile strength, meaning it can snap under enough pressure.

If your clay drainage system is badly damaged, it will need replacing. Optimum Drain can safely remove and dispose of the old clay drains, replacing them with a brand-new, strengthened PVC drainage system.

This will be carried out quickly and precisely, with care taken not to damage the surrounding area.
