Pitch Fibre is cheap and lightweight, made from cellulose and coal tar and has caused many problems over the years. We offer Pitch Fibre pipe repairs to deal with deformed pipes, major drain blockages and collapsed pipes. Another problem caused by the pipes is the fact that they can attract tree roots, which our root removal service can amend.
It’s best to fix the pipes before they fall which will lead to more difficult excavation and drain repair services. Maintain Drains use the finest technology for our Pitch Fibre Repairs, which cause the least amount of disruption to your property.
Pitch fibre pipes were installed as drainage pipes in properties through the 1950’s until the 1970’s. If your home was built as this time, you may be affected by the insufficiency of this piping.
Pitch Fibre Checks
We provide a comprehensive drain survey of your piping using inspection technology, with a report on the findings. Our team of professionals are able to discuss with you the best options to take when considering pitch fibre repairs.

Came out as emergency within 30 minutes of phoning at about 7pm. Arrived when they said they would. Nice guy, who sorted a very unpleasant problem, with friendly courtesy and good humour. Also had a follow up call next day, which was much appreciated. Would absolutely recommend them. Many thanks for getting us out of a sticky situation.

Spoke to Jon at Maintain prior to our house purchase as a house surveyor's report does not give sufficient information. Could not fault the service. Video's of all the drains. a map of their location and description of condition which is incredibly useful for future plans. He arranged everything which was appreciated as we are (were) not local and the report was with us the next day. Like the electrician who inspected the electrical installation; both worth every penny of their fees prior to a house purchase.

Pitch Fibre repairs can save you a fortune, compared to using excavation methods. Excavation can be costly and damaging to your property, as the ground would have to be disturbed. Not only is pitch fibre repairing cheaper and less damaging to your property, it is also more eco-friendly, as the pipes would have to be taken to a specialist landfill site due to their asbestos content.
