Professional Drain Unblocking
Blocked drains can cause bad smells, slow drainage, and even property damage if left untreated. Our local engineers are equipped with high-pressure water jetting and electro-mechanical tools to clear even the most stubborn blockages safely and efficiently.
High Pressure Water Jetting
Our powerful jetting units blast water at high pressure (up to 4000 psi) through your pipes, scouring away scale, fat, grease, and debris. This restores your drains to near-new flow capacity.
- Best for soft blockages & grease
- Cleans full pipe diameter
- Environmentally friendly (water only)
Electro-Mechanical Cleaning
For blockages caused by hard materials like tree roots, concrete, or compacted wipes, we use steel flexible rods with specialized cutting heads to physically break down the obstruction.
- Best for roots & hard objects
- Navigates tight bends
- Precision removal
Signs you have a blocked drain
Water taking longer than usual to clear is often the first sign of a developing partial blockage.
Foul odors suggest waste is trapped and decomposing in the pipework.
Trapped air trying to escape around a blockage creates bubbling noises.
If water rises high before draining slowly, the main line may be obstructed.
Sewage visible outside is a sure sign of a major main drain blockage requiring urgent attention.
Warning: Left untreated, blockages can lead to sewage backing up into your home, causing significant health risks and expensive damage.
