Pipe Bursting

Old water, sewage and gas mains often suffer structural damage due to corrosion, tree root infestation, pipe settlement or because of inaccurately laid pipe joints, and repairing them can be costly.

Pipe Bursting is one of the most cost effective methods of replacing or up-scaling damaged pipes. Rook Services’ no-dig pipe replacement methods are quicker, cheaper and cause far less disruption than traditional open trenching methods.

It is ideal for all urban applications where an existing pipeline has exceeded its useful life. This system can be used beneath buildings, roads, rivers or bridges and avoids traffic delays; so any interruption of supplies or inconvenience to residents and businesses are kept to a minimum.

Rook Services Ltd own both hydraulic and pneumatic systems and offer a complete contract Pipe Bursting service which is both cost-effective and environmentally friendly.
