No matter how exceptionally efficient and perfectly functional your drainage system is, you must have faced drainage system problems at some time in life. It is very common to get drainage system problems because no matter what you do to make your drainage system work properly, it all goes down the drain except what needs to go down the drain. Jokes apart, drainage system problems arise for many reasons, some of which can be avoided, others can’t. It is a universal problem, you can say; therefore, the need to find solutions for drainage system problems has led to the creation of various effective solutions around the world. If you are in search of a solution that will solve your particular drainage problem, then this article will provide you with all the ideas that can be used for a drainage system complete solution.

·         The most common problem that happens very frequently is a blockage anywhere in your drainage system. If there is some blockage either in downspouts or in any part of your drainage system, you will have a drainage system problem. Your drainage system itself cannot remove the blockage, no matter how good it is. For this, you can get some products made with chemicals that are proven to unblock the drainage system. You will just have to pour it into any opening of your drainage system, and it will reach the blocked part and remove it. You can also hire a professional who will clear your drain with either some chemicals, drain jet equipment, etc.

·         The other problem that is also very common is the displacement of the pipe joints under the soil. Due to the movement of the earth, the pipes placed under the soil also move, which causes the displacement of the pipe joints. Therefore, nothing reaches the drain because everything leaks through the displacement. The easiest solution for this without digging the soil is relining the pipe. Pipe relining helps fix all the displacements without digging up the soil and finding the displacement. You can easily hire a professional and get your problem solved.

·         The other problem is broken, fractured, or cracked pipes. If any drainage system pipe is either broken or fractured or cracked, it surely needs replacement. If the pipe is above ground, you can also do pipe relining without replacing the pipe. However, if the pipe is in the soil, you will need to get pipe or drain excavation done, depending on the severity of the problem.
