At Jetter Conversions we stock a wide range of patch lining equipment — from patch kits and packers to liners, resins and accessories.
If you work in drainage, you’ll know that customers are often not looking for the biggest job. In many cases, they want the smartest fix — something practical, cost-effective and with as little disruption as possible. That’s exactly why patch lining has become such a useful service for so many engineers.
What is patch lining?
Patch lining is a trenchless repair method used to fix a damaged section of pipe without digging up and replacing the full run.
In simple terms, it allows you to repair a localised defect from inside the pipe itself. Using the right patch lining equipment, the damaged section can be reinforced internally, creating a strong repair while avoiding the time, mess and disruption that comes with excavation.
It is a smart, practical solution and one that more drainage engineers are choosing to offer as part of their service. It sits neatly between a basic clearance job and a full dig-up repair, giving engineers another service to offer when CCTV inspections or drainage investigations uncover localised damage.
And for customers, it often means:
Less disruption
Less mess
Less downtime
A more cost-effective repair option
Why patch lining can be good for your business
If you are not already offering patch lining, it can be a great addition to your business. A lot of drainage companies are already carrying out inspections, jetting and general repair work. Patch lining is a natural next step because it gives you the opportunity to keep more work in-house and offer more value from the jobs you are already attending.
Instead of identifying a problem and handing the repair over to another contractor, you may be able to carry out the repair yourself.
That can help your business:
Create another revenue stream
Get more value from CCTV and inspection work
Offer a more complete service to customers
Keep repair work in-house
Stand out from competitors who only offer investigation or clearance
From our point of view, patch lining is one of those services that just makes sense for a lot of drainage businesses.
