Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about our drainage services
If your drain is overflowing or backing up, avoid running water, flushing toilets, or using appliances that drain. Move valuables or electricals away if possible until help arrives.
Repeated blockages, bad smells, water pooling, or sinkholes in the garden can mean a more serious pipe issue. A CCTV survey is the best way to check for cracked or collapsed drains.
Yes, we maintain, empty, and repair septic tanks, including those in rural properties and farms. We also advise on current regulations and the right care for off-mains systems.
Drain lining is a no-dig method that repairs many cracks or old joints without excavation. If a pipe is badly broken or collapsed, excavation and replacement may be needed, especially under drives or older stonework.
If the drain only serves your property and is within your boundary, you’re usually responsible. Shared drains or public sewers may be the water company’s responsibility—contact us if you’re unsure and we can help you check.
Avoid pouring fats and oils down sinks, don’t flush wipes or sanitary items, and keep an eye out for trees with roots near old pipes. Regular cleaning and CCTV checks can help prevent future issues.
