How we clean your drains, and what types of drainage problems can we fix?

Unblocking Drains, Drain Clearance.

Drain Cleaning Services are experts in dealing with internal and external blocked drains. Our drainage engineers have over 24 years of experience in their specialist trade, covering all aspects of drainage problems and solutions.

A blocked drain can cause a lot of problems which can adversely affect your whole home or business premises, depending where the blockage is. Our drainage vehicle carries the latest equipment and technology for drain unblocking including high pressure jetting systems allowing the blockage to be shifted quickly. Our drainage engineers can unblock almost any drain.

When we arrive we will assess the problem and then find out exactly where the blockage is located in your drainage system. We can, if necessary, inspect your drains using a CCTV drain survey camera. Most domestic drain blockages do not require CCTV and can be cleared using a high pressure jetting system. Our aim is primarily to shift the blockage this way, and to avoid any requirement for excavation. In some cases a blocked drain may be due to a collapsed drain and in these circumstances we have other options available to us to remedy the problem. ‘No dig’ is always our preferred option as it means we can get you sorted out nice and fast and get on our way to our next job!

We clear and repair both internal and external blockages leaving you with a clean, clear and safe environment.

Drain problems more serious than a simple blockage.

When a drainage system isnt flowing properly, the most common cause is due to a blockage of some kind. Unfortunately there are many other more serious causes that can get overlooked. Your drainage system may be collapsed or may have been severely damaged by tree root ingression.

Badly damaged drains can be dangerous, not to mention a potentail health hazrd, and should be repaired as soon as possible to prevent possible flooding of water or back flow of sewage. Luckily, Our engineers work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so when you need an emergency drain repair, call us for a rapid response on Phone: 0800 073 0658 Or Mobile: 07768 990621

Where sections of collapsed or decayed pipe have been identified, excavation may be the best (sometimes the only) solution. This involves excavating and removing the defective drain run, which is normally replaced with a new plastic osma drainpipe. When we dig down to rectify your drainage problem, you can rest assured we will get the job done promptly, safely and with the greatest care.

Where defects are established to have arisen in a small area, these can be patched to produce a permanent repair. First we undertake a CCTV survey along the pipe to identify the damaged area. A fibreglass mat is coated in an epoxy resin wrapped around an inflatable packer and positioned in the problem area. This is then inflated until the resin has cured.

We charge a FIXED FEE so you know how much a job will be from the start and there is no call out charge even on bank holidays and weekends.

CCTV drain survey. CCTV drain inspections.

CCTV Drain Camera Surveys (Drain Inspection) allows our engineers to discover the true condition of your drains. We can provide our customer with a DVD and detailed report providing full recommendations of any repair work that may be required.

CCTV drain surveys are ideal for providing a complete picture of the condition of the drainage system. Our advanced cameras can locate and identify any drainage faults, leaking pipes or joints, blockages and any other problems that could be costly or troublesome in the future. We can also provide you with a DVD of drainage survey for insurance purposes.

We then prepare a quotation to rectify any problems that have become evident from the survey. Contact us to discuss your requirements and we can arrange to undertake a survey at your convenience.
