Advanced Pipeline Solutions offers repair and rehabilitation of sewers and pipelines using a combination of primarily no-dig techniques.

The business is fronted by Paul Cleaver and overseen by Danaher & Walsh’s Operations Director Russell Fitzjohn.

Much of the work that APS will carry out will be pipe lining. This involves repairing a damaged sewer by inserting a malleable liner into the existing pipeline and curing it to form a rigid pipe.

High-tech cutting robots will be used to cut out obstructions and debris, and open up lateral connections. State-of-the art camera systems can provide detailed surveys of pipelines and help to diagnose problems.

As most of the work will be carried out using no-dig techniques, disruption is minimised and, usually, the cost of the repair is far lower than using the more traditional methods of excavation.

As part of the Danaher & Walsh Group APS is able to offer a complete integrated solution for drainage works.

Danaher & Walsh Group Managing Director Dan Danaher said: “We’re delighted to welcome Paul Cleaver to Danaher & Walsh. Paul brings a wealth of experience of pipeline repairs and rehabilitation.

“I’m very excited by this opportunity to bring cutting edge technology to both our existing customer base and a completely new market that this venture opens up to us.

“The establishment of Danaher & Walsh APS complements our existing group offering very well, meaning we can offer clients civil engineering and sewer rehabilitation capabilities from under one roof.”
