Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011010915A1] There is disclosed a method wherein a clogged drainpipe is provided with a watertight bottom section to be placed under the drainpipe, upstream of the clogged part thereof. On said bottom section at least one top section provided with a drill guide is placed, after which a hole is drilled in the drainpipe above the bottom section. The watertight bottom section functions as a collecting container after the clogged drainpipe has been drilled through, into which the contaminated drainage water running from the drainpipe can flow without contaminating the surrounding area or the soil. The soil remains dry, it is not contaminated and the environment is thus burdened less. A top section can be placed on top of the collecting section, and the contaminated drainage water can be pumped from the collecting section into a temporary or non- temporary facility.
