Drain Unblocking Questions

Q4: What types of drains do you unblock?

A: We unblock sinks, toilets, showers, external drains, and sewers. We can also remove grease, fat, debris, and tree roots that cause blockages.

Q5: How long does it take to unblock a drain?

A: Most blockages can be cleared within a few hours, depending on the severity and location of the blockage. We always aim for fast, efficient solutions.

Drainage Repair Questions

Q7: What types of repairs do you carry out?

A: We repair cracked or collapsed pipes, leaking or misaligned drains, root ingress damage, and manholes. We also offer no-dig pipe relining solutions when appropriate.

Q8: How do I know if I need a repair rather than unblocking?

A: If your drains repeatedly block, smell bad, or your water drains slowly, there may be underlying damage. Our CCTV surveys identify these issues so we can recommend the best solution.

Q9: Is pipe relining a permanent solution?

A: Yes, modern no-dig pipe relining is a long-lasting solution that restores structural integrity without digging up your property.
