Helpful to know: is it overflowing outside, and is more than one sink, toilet or shower affected? That usually points to the main drain.

Our Services

External Drainage, Start to Finish

We specialise in the underground drains outside the building — clearing them, surveying them and repairing them.

24/7 Emergency Callouts

Sewage backing up or flooding at 2am doesn't wait for office hours — and neither do we. Call any time, day or night.

Emergency callouts →

CCTV Drain Surveys

Camera surveys with a written report and footage — for recurring blockages, home buyers and insurance claims.

CCTV surveys →

Drain Repairs & Relining

Collapsed sections, cracked pipework and root damage repaired — with no-dig relining wherever the drain allows it.

Drain repairs →

Commercial Drainage

Planned maintenance and priority response for pubs, care homes, letting agents and facilities managers.

Same-Day
Most Jobs Cleared

Most blockages are resolved on the first visit — gullies, grids, manholes and inspection chambers, all in one call-out.

Blocked Drains

Cleared Today, Not Next Week

Sewage in the garden or a manhole backing up isn't something that waits. We answer the phone around the clock, and in most cases an engineer is with you the same day.

  • Gullies, grids, manholes and inspection chambers
  • Several fixtures affected at once — usually the main drain
  • Drain smells, gurgling and slow-draining outside gullies
  • Price confirmed on site before any work starts

Written Report
+ Footage Supplied

Every survey comes with a report and camera footage you can act on, claim against or hand to a surveyor.

CCTV Surveys

Find Out What's Actually Wrong

If a drain keeps blocking, clearing it again only buys time. A camera survey shows you the cause — root ingress, a collapsed section, displaced joints or a bad fall — and gives you a report you can act on or claim against.

  • Written report with footage supplied
  • Pre-purchase surveys for home buyers
  • Insurance and warranty documentation
  • Repair quoted from evidence, not guesswork

Our Promise

No Call-Out Fee. No Surprises.

Drainage has a reputation for vague pricing and jobs that grow once the van's on the drive. We quote a fixed price on site, before anything starts — and if we can't fix it, you don't pay for the visit.

£0
Call-Out Fee

Free attendance and assessment — you pay for the work, not the visit.

24/7
Emergency Line

Call any hour and you'll get a person, not a voicemail — day or night.

Price, Always

Agreed on site before work begins. Card, bank transfer or invoice for account customers.

Drainage Contracts & Priority Response

Blocked drains close kitchens, shut bathrooms and generate complaints. We work with businesses that can't afford downtime — with planned maintenance to stop problems before they start.

About Us

Specialists, Not Generalists

We only do external drainage — the underground drains outside the building. It's a deliberate choice: it's what we're properly equipped for, and it's why we turn up with the right kit rather than promising to "have a look".

If your problem turns out to be internal pipework, we'll tell you straight and point you to a plumber. You won't be charged for finding that out.
