Our drain unblocking service locates and clears restrictions in domestic and commercial drainage. The method depends on the affected pipe, the obstruction, access and condition. After clearance, we identify any separate fault that still needs attention.

Clearance method
The obstruction and pipe condition determine whether rods, cable cleaning, jetting or another method is suitable.
After unblocking
Flow checks show what has been restored and whether another fault still needs investigation.
Choosing the clearance method
Drain rods, flexible cable equipment and water jetting act differently on obstructions and deposits. Pipe diameter, bends and condition limit what can be used safely. A collapsed or badly displaced section may need repair rather than repeated attempts at clearance.

Flow checks after clearance
After the blockage is cleared, we check the affected outlets and identify any remaining signs of restriction. Restored flow does not necessarily mean the full bore has been cleaned or every section of pipe has been inspected.
When a recorded CCTV survey is needed
A camera used during clearance may only show the section being worked on. If the problem returns or cleaning exposes signs of damage, a recorded CCTV condition survey may be needed before repair.
Drain Unblocking Service: common questions
Do I need to know where the blockage is before contacting you?
No. The pattern of symptoms can be used to investigate where the restriction is likely to be.
Does drain unblocking include replacing broken pipework?
No. Pipe replacement is separate work and needs to be identified and agreed where required.
What happens if a collapsed or badly displaced pipe is found?
A collapsed or badly displaced section may need repair rather than further attempts at clearance.
Can restored flow leave deposits further along the pipe?
Yes. A blockage can be opened without cleaning the full bore.
Can repeated blockages be investigated?
Yes. Recurring symptoms can justify wider cleaning or a recorded camera survey to establish the cause.
