Moving in a New Property and Would like to Run a CCTV Drain Survey?
Are you planning to live in a new place? Our company can help you run a CCTV survey to check for bad smells, rodent problems or invisible blockages. As you know, some problems remain out of sight for some time before they begin to manifest themselves.
Our drain unblocking experts will see to your request, putting all their energy into auditing the new drainage system. If they discover any problems, they will let you know and propose an action plan if that is necessary.
Drain Unblocking / Drain Jetting
The process of unblocking a drain involves careful planning and initial inspection. After we use the CCTV drain survey, we will know what is causing your blocked drain and will be able to act accordingly.
We also provide drain cleaning through high pressure water jetting where we resort to high pressure water to flush debris and build-up out of your drains. The water is usually stored in tanks. When it comes to unblocking drains, we carry all the equipment we need. You don’t have to provide any machines or tools to us while your property is being delivered drain unblocking services.
Drain Lining / Repair
Drain lining is also known as sewer pipe or trenchless pipe repair. It can help you save thousands of pounds on current plumbing pipe replacement.
When a sewer line ruptured in the past, the only method to fix it was to dig up your entire yard–thankfully, that is no longer the case. There are alternatives to digging up your sewer systems nowadays, and we have licensed plumbers and drain specialists in the Tonbridge area who offer this service.
Unblock Toilet Drainage Services
Blocked toilets are an unfortunate emergency that can leave residential and commercial clients struggling to meet their daily needs. From toilet paper to sanitary products and other not so common offenders, these are just some of the causes of a blocked toilet. It’s not difficult to imagine what could go wrong if you delay having the issue fixed.
Luckily, you can count on us to bring it back to its previous state. We will use different tools and methods to unblock toilets in your property, such as drain excavation methods, rotary mechanical drain cleaning, and high pressure jetting, among other things.
We may be able to offer other toilet blockages solutions if your case is far from the ordinary stuff we are used to handling.
It is important to understand that a blocked toilet is a tricky issue that needs to be addressed by the pros. If it cannot be solved by a plunger, you should definitely give us a call before making things worse.
The following can result in a blocked toilet or blocked sink that would require our blocked drains cleaning service:
- Disposing of waste in the toilet bowl or down the sink drain (leading up to a blocked drain)
- Build-up of soap scum and hair
- There is not enough pressure from the water tank when the toilet is flushed
- The drain pipes are old
- Problems with main sewer line and drain clearance

Drain Repairs & Unblocking: How We Do It
Step 1: Identifying the cause
We use our knowledge and professional equipment to inspect your drains and figure out what is causing the blockage. Understanding why the drainage issue arose in the first place and making sure it doesn’t happen again provide long-term protection for your drains.

The most common causes include:
- Blocked gully
- Broken or damaged sewage pipes
- Tree rot ingress
- Household waste blocking your drains
- Lost drain rods
- Leaking septic tanks
Thanks to our tools like cameras and a snake, we can get inside your piping system and see what the trouble is in real time. When we are finished, we report the results and present to you an action plan that will have your drains back to working as intended.
Step 2: Resolving the issue - drain unblocking and drain jetting
The next step is to put everything back together, restoring complete functionality to your pipe system. We then proceed to clear any obstructions or solve other drainage problems using various tools and machines from our high-quality equipment.
We can work with accuracy and care because of the technologies we utilize, which allow us to avoid damaging your drains or exacerbating the drainage problem. We know exactly what we’re doing.
At the end of the procedure, we show you what we’ve accomplished and test for flaws. We will only leave your property after we have guaranteed that your pipe system is operational again and that you are completely satisfied with the service.

Signs That You Have Badly Blocked Drain
Smelly drains
Because of all the filth and sludge that has accumulated in the drain, it is likely to emit a bad odor. Bad odors aren’t usually indicative of a drain obstruction, but if you’re experiencing them, you should have the drainage system evaluated by a professional to determine the underlying problem.
The sooner the situation is resolved, the less harm there will be. Unblocking drains is in our wheelhouse of knowledge, so you know which drain company to call.
Structural damage
If you have any kind of structural damage on the premises, you should absolutely call us. Your family’s safety could be jeopardized. This is not a problem that you can solve on your own with drain cleaning chemicals or other instruments, which is why you should always rely on the drainage professionals at our firm.
The first step would be to identify and repair the source of the subsidence. Once that is completed, the structural damage must be estimated and repaired.
Mould and damp patches
If you detect mouldy areas on your property, particularly around pipes, this could indicate a leaking pipe or a drain obstruction. Needless to say, such an issue should not be ignored for too long, as it might spread and double the expense of repair.
Infestations of rodents
Rodent infestation is another major problem. If you’re having trouble, it’s possible that a leaky pipe or a broken drainage system has served as an entry point for the animals. You might also discover animal droppings, chewed up items, and holes on your property. A CCTV scan will be quite useful in locating the problem spot.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is responsible for drains?
Because the property doesn’t normally share drains with any other properties in any area, it is property owners that are in charge of their own drains. Hence, if there is a drain problem with the drains in your home, you should be the one taking care of it.
What to do if a neighbour's drain is blocked?
If you suspect that your neighbour’s drain system got blocked, the least you can do is let them know, even if the issue has not impacted your property. You can call one of the drainage companies servicing your area to have them check the drain problem.
Who is responsible for blocked drains on my property?
If you are the homeowner of the property, you will be responsible for the drainage system on the premises; therefore, you are the one that has to resolve drain issues when they happen. If you live in a rented property, then the responsibility falls on the letting agent or the landlord.
How much does a professional drain cleaner cost?
High pressure jetting costs around £185 in the UK, with prices varying from one area to the next. For drain rodding, you will be paying close to £100.
What are CCTV drain surveys?
CCTV drain surveys enable specialists to examine the condition of a blocked drain from within. It involves inserting CCTV equipment such as a small camera inside the drain that provides real-time footage of what is being captured. There are pictures and an analysis report. The purpose of this software is to help detect potential blockages and other issues with drains that remain out of sight.
Can you unblock blocked toilets by yourself?
You could try to remove the obstruction manually if it’s within your reach. But at the end of the day, a professional drainage company has more expertise and the latest equipment to solve drain problems of this kind in a professional manner. This applies especially to a blocked drain and blocked toilet at commercial properties.
How long does it take to unblock a drain?

Will a blocked sink eventually drain?
Minor blockages may be able to clear on their own but in most cases, you will need to take care of the blocked drain yourself or call a professional.
Is hard water causing my blocked drain problem?
With long use, mineral deposits from hard water will build up on the sides of your drains. Over time, this could slow water drainage. However, it is not likely to block the entire flow. If you have a blocked drain or blocked toilet, quite possibly something else is triggering it. You need to consult a specialist who will inspect the issue in more detail and propose a solution.
