Common Drainage Problems We Fix

Blocked Drains

Bad smells and slow drainage are caused by blocked drains. Your pipes can become blocked by food waste, cooking grease, hair, soap scum and even foreign objects. Using powerful jetting equipment, our team clears blockages from kitchen sinks, toilets and outdoor drains. Unlike store bought chemicals we remove all traces of the blockage, not just push it further down the line.

Gurgling Sounds

Blockages in your pipes will be warned by gurgling noises coming from your drains. When air is trapped behind a partial blockage, these sounds occur. These issues are fixed before they become major problems. We use our high pressure water jets to blast through the partial blockage to get your pipes flowing full again.

Bad Smells

Waste is trapped in your pipes and that means foul odors. Bacteria grows faster in hot weather and smells often get worse. We remove all waste and kill harmful bacteria using our high pressure jetting. Our water jets force scrub pipe walls clear of the source of the smell.

Slow Draining Water

If water drains slowly from your sink or bath, your pipes are blocked. Hair, soap scum and food waste accumulate inside pipes and slowly close the flow of water. They find and fix the cause quickly. Using specialist equipment we are able to locate and clear these blockages without causing damage to your pipes.

Our Professional Jetting Equipment

All of our water jetting machines are industrial grade and reach pressure of 4000 PSI. This is a very powerful force which clears almost any blockage. Our jetting equipment removes:

• Kitchen pipes that ordinary cleaners can’t touch grease buildups from
• Hair and soap buildups that occur deep inside bathroom waste pipes
• Cracking and blocking of outdoor drainage pipes by tree root intrusions
• Narrow pipes and slow water flow due to hard scale deposits.

We use equipment that can jet pipes 300% better than basic drain rods or store bought chemicals. Mechanical tools can't get to where the high pressure water can. We also use different jetting nozzles depending on the type of blockage and will give you the best results for your particular problem.

Benefits of Our Drain Jetting Service

Our jetting is powerful enough to clean pipes completely, rather than just busting through blockages. This prevents problems from returning quickly. We use the water pressure safely to remove years of buildup without harming your pipes. Our jetting service has many customers reporting that their drains work better than they have in years.

High pressure water is used to remove even stubborn blockages such as hardened grease and tree roots. Ordinary cleaning methods do not work on these tough blockages, but our water jets easily break them apart. Even small tree roots invading drainage pipes can be cut by our equipment.

Keeping your pipes flowing freely and your drainage system lasting longer is the benefit of regular jetting maintenance. For homes with frequent blockage problems, we recommend jetting annually. This is much cheaper than emergency callouts and will prolong the life of your drainage system.

Professional CCTV Drain Surveys

We look inside your pipes with our cameras to find problems you don’t see. This advanced technology helps us:

• No guesswork to find exact blockage locations.
• Identify cracked or damaged pipes before they completely fail
• Detect invasive tree roots that have grown into drain lines.
• Prevent future problems by mapping your drainage system.

CCTV surveys cost £120 including a detailed report and video evidence. This report is used for insurance claims and it proves exactly what work needs to be done. If needed, we can save the footage onto a USB drive for your records.
